Default sad story

was sitting on the firebreak of a field when 5 does came my way. They walked right under my stand and I decided to take the last on in the line. She stopped and I had to make a shot looking right down on her. Well, I hit that deer and she went running off and the others scattered into the field. I thought I had missed the first one so I picked out another one and shot her too. She went right down so I assumed I had got a clean kill of her. I climbed down and decided to go get a bite to eat while before tracking them. When I went back to get my deer I saw that I had indeed hit the first one in the gut. I went to the second one I shot because I knew it was down. Well as I got to her I saw that she was still breathing and very much alive. I had broke her spine. I have hunted a long time and never seen a deer in that sort of shape. She was trying to move but just couldn't get up. It really made me feel bad. I decided to go back to my truck and get a gun to finish her instead of cutting her throat.

I just feel bad to have let her suffer that long
