this season i shot a doe at 25 yards and she went down in about 45-50 yards.
i also shot a doe on monday at 40 yards i hit her spine so i ran as fast as i could to her and put an arrow in her head


I meant your finishing shot.
a brain shot will kill her right then and a lung shot could take 15-30 seconds of her squirming around in pain
Not always! I've seen arrows sticking out of a deers head a day later still running around. Always shoot for the lungs if you can. In your case maybe that was your only shot, if you have options always take the lung shot.
