There are too many variables for a question like this to be realistic. Lets be specific, is the deer running full speed, flat or bounding, how many deer are there, is it open woods, a cutover, a field, what is the weapon, the distance, and on and on and on and on.
There's a single doe running across an alfalfa field at 65yards and you have a shotgun. She's heading towards some thickets and you have about 10 seconds from the time you see her untill the time she has made it to the woods
O.K. I'll humor you. IMO there is no shot here due to the distance. That is quite a poke for a shotgun. I know they will shoot that far but that is a little far for me.
