Will do. Good luck to yall too. There should be a tracking dog near you. If you get decent blood and can't find him you may want to call one in.

It was the closest buck i ever shot. I saw him yesterday evening at 70 yards and put together the blind today after work. He came in right behind me and stopped. Nerve racking i tell you, but he came on out and stared at the blind. Awesome hunt regardless.

Jsmith, what did it sound like when the arrow hit? If you shot straight through him eye level out into a cutover, I'd bet that arrow is all but gone. If you hit the shoulder you should've heard a LOUD smack. Hope he's not far at all and you're able to get the meat too.

It sounded like a shoulder shot. Me and my son looked for the arrow and he said the same thing you said ,the arrow could be anywhere. Yall have any luck with shoulder shots? I think it stuck in his shoulder.being so close and him stopping caused a litte nervousness and i couldnt tell where it hit

I'll never bleat at a close one again. Maybe a little squeek or something. Gosh this is gut wrenching. Maybe i'll find him. Do yall think the meat will be good? Its going down in the 40' tonight.

I've found some and lost some. At 5 yards I'd think you would get enough penetration to hit lungs and all. You should be good to go other than possibly not having an exit and him bleeding mostly inside. Was he angled at all? Shouldn't really matter if he was or not really. God put that shoulder bone and brisket to protect stuff that keeps him alive. But if he was angled to you some there's a chance you only got one shoulder and may have an exit for blood to spill out of and you just couldn't find it in the dark. I'm sure you'll think about it long enough tonight and have it all figured out by morning.
