Get back out there and do it again man! It happens to all of us. Sucks, but it happens.
Other things being equal, it is the man who shoots with his heart in his bow that hits the mark.

Shot one quartering away but hit the back hip and passed thru but not a fatal hit. She just walked off like nothing happened.

I shot at a doe Friday morning that was 25 yds away and broadside when I drew, then she took a step and was quartering away before I could shoot. I thought I could make the shot anyway, so I let it fly. Pulled it to the right and hit her high in the ham and broke her down. She crawled a few yards on her front legs and was dead in 30 seconds. Better to be lucky than good.
A 3 blade 100 grain Muzzy is bad news. I pulled the arrow out and replaced the blades and hunted with it the rest of the trip.
All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.

First thing Friday morning at 7:20 I blew it on a perfect broadside shot at 13 yards. Yep, 13 yards! Fine buck. I hit him low and a little far back. Gave him 6 hours and went to look. He never even bedded down, and stopped bleeding after a couple hundred yards. I think he'll be fine. Gotta keep trying. It'll happen to all of us at some point.

Shot a big nanny Sat afternoon, waited till almost dark and blood trail led me to creek, then dark forced me out of these unfamiliar woods, found her next morning but overnight temps were high 40's, went in below spine and back a little and came out thru gut. I decided not to harvest.
Is it Hunting Season Yet?
