You know, I have seen some wierd things bowhunting.

I went thru a cycle one year about 5 years ago when everything went bad. I went on a moose trip to newfoundland, and missed. I missedor got busted several times with the bow. I got busted twice by monster bucks. Good shot on a doe, like you adn couldn't find.

I blew the front leg off a sika deer with a sluggun and could not find. And since then, can't complain at all. I even got bad, bad shots in on two deer since then and recovered within 100 yards. In that one season, I lost more animals than my whole life hunting. I really wanted to give it up.

But the bottom line is, if your deer is going 500 yards, it sure doesn't sound like double lung shots I ever seen.
