Default shoulder shot deer

It don't look good. 20 yard broadside shot, hit a little far foward and dead center. Trailed blood for about 400 yards. Bright red ok trail, arrow came out when he crossed a fence. Muzzy 3 blade with tip shattered, no blades or tip attached. Blood covered arrow about 8 inches. 25 yards afer arrow came out the blood trail ended.[:'(] I searched for 5 hours with no luck finding him. I know the shot was foward, I was leading the deer as he was walking, gave a maaaa to get him to stop. He did but the bow kept going foward. With the red blood, no pass through, and the tore up muzzy, I could only conclude that I hit the front shoulder.The 400 yards was straight across a been field, so I know I wasent pushing him. I am headed back out for some more searching. Any Ideas on how far this deer could go? He lost quite abit of blood but never laid down and allowed it to pool up.
