I shot one time and she dropped right down. Me and a buddy stood there not 20 feet from her for about 30 minutes because another doe was coming across a field so we didn't move. Never a doubt in my mind the way my doe dropped that she was dead. My friend ended up shooting the other doe that was walking across the field. We went to look for it and were about 100 yards away when my doe got up and started walking. At first I thought it was another deer because I assumed mine was dead. Went back and found a very small blood trail and she walked across a field that that was over 1/2 mile and we never did find her. I can only assume that I hit high and close to the spine and once the shock wore off she was not hurt bad at all.
