Did you catch any liver by chance? i.e. dark blood on the arrow.
BTW, that's a DANDY buck!
Just a small spot of dark blood. The short blood trail I found was a little dark but not sure about liver. I really find it hard to believe it didn't catch something significant though. I swear the shot didn't seem that far back. I just can't believe it. I'm sick.
