Nicely done! Tell us about the shot placement/organ damage and how far the buck ran.
Shot placement was a tad high and rear. Exit was weird as well. I had him broadside with a little bit of a quarter, maybe 5-10 degrees forward. Shot was about mid body, and 3 inches rear of the back of the front leg. Took both lungs, somehow, not quite sure how. The exit point was what was weird, it exited mid gut, so it must have hit rib, and curved inside the cavity. Though it entered between 2 ribs. Only thing i can figure. So there was quite a bit of organ damage. Arrow was in tact completely. Odd hit i thought, but i'm new to archery kills, maybe normal. When i saw the exit wound i said, there's no way i hit it that far rear. Then when i flipped it over i was like, see, i knew it, it changed direction in the cavity. All i know is both lungs were deflated and there was gut damage but the broadhead remained in tact.
He ran by my estimation about 125-150 yards. He did an L shape in the woods. We lost the blood trail there and kind of just followed hoof prints and some like new droppings, then picked up blood again that started gushing. Made it about a 25 minute tracking job, but not bad.
Bloody arrow:
Can kind of see the entry wound in this pic, mid riser. In all the excitement i guess i didn't take enough pics of everything. Exit wound is about 6-8" rear on other side.
