I hit a doe this evening and was unable to find her tonight. The shot was a bit far back but still in the front half of the deer. Vertically, the shot wasin about the middle of her side, maybea bit higher. After the shot, she ran 35 yds and stopped. She stood there for 5 minutes like nothing was wrong then walked off. I lost sight of her, then a few minutes later a buck came by chasing a doe. They came from the same area the doe disappeared so I looked to see blood on her but I saw none and she appeared to be moving well.

I waited 3 1/2 hrs and took up the blood trail. There was no blood until about the spot where she stopped first. We followed it for 60-70 yds before losing it completely. We lost it at about the spot where the buck began chasing her. There wasn't alot of blood but it was bright red. We searched for a couple hours but never found anymore blood or sign of her.

Any thoughts on what vitals I may have hit? I don't think it was far enough back to be a gut shot, so I'm thinking it's a single lung? The height of the shot I'm guessing would explain the lack of blood? I'm heading back in the morning to take another look and hopefully find her.
