Default RE: buck down cant find tonight

If you missed the nearside lung completely, and got only his right lung (or vice versa) it is possible. But usually only in strong and healthy deer. A deer that is "one-lunged" can run a LONG way. People have killed deer with one lung collapsed from a prior hunting season on more than one occasion. On the other hand, if you nipped the closer lung then blew through the farside, you should find him.
