RE: shot one high
Well if you hit him high, you must have hit him ABOVE the spine, otherwise you would have either spined him, or double lunged him. If you were high enoug in the tree and the deer was only 7 yrds out, its possible you could have caught one lung on the other side, but thats not likely. Last time I hit a deer high about the spine my feathers were sticking out just like yours and there was NOT a drop of blood.
Get out and look, and good luck. Hope you find him.
