Great job man. Same thing happened to me last year except it was an 8pt. Sounded like a gun shot when the arrow hit the deer. I gave him about 3 hours and started the search. Looked for the rest of the day with the blood trail finally stopping. I never saw that deer again. I can only hope that he didnt die and he made it to this year. They are definately amazing animals and I wouldnt doubt it in the least if hes still around. That is definately the opposite end of the spectrum, yours being the best outcome there can be. This story should make all hunters proud.
