Default RE: First Bow kill but..........

If you double lunged the deer but didn't cut any major arteries or veins there won't be a lot of blood on the ground. That sounds like what you did.
To get a lot of blood on the ground you have to cut large arteries and veins so the blood will flow and have a low exit hole in the chest cavity so the blood can drain on the ground.

Think of it like a hose that is shut off at the nozzel in a bucket. when you cut the hose with a knife the water will go into the bucket. if you put a hole in the bottom of the bucket, the water can drain out on to the ground..
