Default Have you ever shot a deer in the liver and never found it

i shot a small buck this past weekend and i shot it in the liver and waited 3 hours and followed the blood trail and it was very bad one considering i had an eventual pass through with a rage but the blood just stopped and never found the deer

why do you think you hit it in the liver?

Did you find the arrow?

shooting them in the liver can be difficult to track. However, i found if I hang from the tree with a big knife and wait for the deer to pass under me and then jump down and start riding it like a bull but at the same time stabbing it in the liver while yelling my war chant, they are easier to find. /just thought that was funny? really though, they are a little harder to find.
