RE: I'm totally devestated!
Your deer is dead.He is there near by.I agree with the others you hit slightly back and hit the liver.I lived this nightmare last year on a quartering shot.As I released the buck turned.I hit where I aimed but that made him more broadside and back slightly to far.He acted like your deer.Mine bedded within 50 yards and got back up.When the blood trail died out we searched everyplace we thought he would go.Mostly toward water.Not !He circled back and walked up hill onto a neighbors property and died.My buck spoiled in the extreme heat and long search,but I found him.Don't give up.Good luck
