Hello my buddy shot a nice buck this morning around 8:00am, he hit him in the lung with a 243. 80grain bullet, we walked up to the buck 5 mins after the shot and he got up and started running toward the river, would he have crossed?, there was a wooden fence he could have jumped and we didnt find any blood on it would there be? i am not sure if the deer would have jumped the fence or not but would it rather go across the river into the thick bush or into an open field? please help

Thanks
