It happens. It will probably happen again. Don't beat yourself up.

Grab a target and run a couple arrows from your actual hunting stand, might be tweaking your body a bit causing issues.

Jumping the String | New Research to Improve Bow Hunting Success (#462) @GrowingDeer.tv - YouTube

That's a cool video but they're making a huge assumption about only dropping at the speed of gravity. If a deer has it's head down (feeding) you have to add in leverage, especially a big with a heavy head/rack. The natural act of pulling that head up is going to greatly accelerate the body's ability to drop down much more so than the speed of gravity.

I made what I thought was a decent shot on a doe last weekend, only to find a trail of guts and blood. Used my dog and tracked her down luckily (3 hours later). Can’t say what I did wrong either. Maybe she jumped the string or I jerked on the shot, but at least I got her in the truck. Opening day I put one down quick with a lung shot, and kept shooting all week before this hunt too.

35 yards is a poke with a bow... A lot can happen in 35 yards.

Maybe just LOFT?

Nah, seriously though, have you shot again with broadheads since? Was it high or low?
