There are no rounds suitable for hunting deer that will not defeat the vests, and it's not possible to make them.

An arrow from a hunting bow or crossbow will slice through both sides of a Kevlar vest with ease, BTW.

Years ago, a policeman or salesman demonstrating armor was killed while wearing a bulletproof vest. He had someone in his audience attack him with a knife. It went through the bullet proof armor with no problem.

I believe that happened in Oklahoma City.
