    I would have been back there already. That sucker is dead.

      I'd go get him now. That broadhead likely caused additional damage bouncing around in there.

          As I am new to bow hunting, I have a couple of questions? After watching the shot on video and in slo mo it looks to be slightly forward and partial exit near or in opposite shoulder. I know op said he would do nothing different and I agree that this deer is dead. Would people generally say that this shot should have been a few inches back or was this just fine? I am not all critiquing the shooter, I just like to learn from real life situations that I can see on video. On that shot would it be preferable for the exit to be in front or behind the opposite shoulder?
          Congrats on an awesome dear and what looks to be an awesome place. I would love to have the amount of deer and the choices you have.

            shot placement several inches above heart, top right lung , opposite lung unscathed

            as others have mentioned, I'd wait 4 hrs and be ready to call in the dogs for backup



            Honestly it looks like a very similar shot to my tall browed deer last year. His head was down feeding and due to the quartering away I took out one lung and hit his spine at the base of his neck. The arrow stopped just like his ....and I found him 300 yards later. Give him some time. you should have a nice blood trail to take you to him no matter how long it is.

              Do you think the broadhead went complete through him? If not it would have torn everything up inside when he was running off.

                Dead dead dead. Just a matter of locating his body.

                      It had to have at least partially penetrated the opposite side. In the video following the shot you can clearly see the deer bleeding on the opposite side shoulder.

                        Long streak of lighted nock looked back, but after watching video it's slightly forward, I think you will recover within 150-200..... But would still wait 4 hrs

                          Go get him now. he's dead!

                            Watching that video I would bet a lot of money that deer is dead by now if you shot him at around 7:30 a.m. I'd be slowly and quietly working my way towards him, but that's just me. Good luck with the recovery.

                                Based on the pic in 127 I can't find anything wrong with the shot other than the head being down... I aim for the tuft of hair just behind the shoulder. If anything and 1" or 2" back but still that should be a dead deer either way.
