Mike, way to go!! She may be a yearling, but she'll provide you with some fine eating. I can't believe you think you missed her the way you shoot. LOL. I know what you mean though. I went through the same thing this year with my two grandsons. My one grandson shot a doe, but did not know he hit her. She just stood their in the brush not offering him another shot. My other grandson who was hunting in the treestand with me, saw her and after what seemed like 10 minutes was able to get a clear shot and dropped her. What was unknown to us my grandson actually gut shot her and she just walked off and stayed in the thick brush and stayed there. Naturally like you he thought he missed her.
