Hard to say with absolute certainty, but it does look like an older synthetic stocked handi.

I duuno for sure, the forend looks too long for an old syn, looks more like a new style, but she got one heck of a buck with something in November!!!

Sure don't look like she missed it to me...  :-\  Although, if she didn't miss, it had to be a superficial wound.  ???

I looked like a hit to me. A lot of (something) spray in the air after the shot. 26-t

There is no question that she cut her just across the top of the hams!
She should have shot sooner before the doe turned.

Unless I'm mistaken, all I see is a bolt action rifle in the video.
As far as the shot, I'm glad she got it, but I think I'd have made her wait til it was broadside. That being said, deer can turn mighty fast, and she was very nervous!
