thats to bad bro... but it will happen to everyone sooner or later
DOUBLELUNG:
Sounds to me like you hit him in the shoulder blade, broke the shaft when he ran past something. Poorly vascularized area, he may well live.

Id second that.
If you only got about 5 inches, the deer is probably gone. I bet he's got a little pain but it should heal up good. Lots of guys hit high, if seen lots of bucks in WI with wound channels from high arrows, they heal up pretty fast.
If you didn't push him far, and can't find him now, I would rest assured that he's probably walking around somewhere.
Hopefully, by my stand :P

I had a deer get away after I jumped him while tracking his blood. Couldn't find him and was getting dark fast. Took my gear back, got a couple dogs and went for a hike. They went straight to it and they're not hunting dogs at all, just muts that sat around the yard all day and went for a hike every chance they got. Don't know if that was legal (about 10 years ago), but seemed like the right thing to do.
