I agree.
And from the hair that I see, it wasn't the belly.

Shot him in the chest are you insane??? Why on heavens earth woudl you take a shot such as this with a bow!! I tell ya what you more than likely got nothing but brisket...the deer will more than likely live to see another day. I would advise against shooting any deer in the chest with a bow.

I'm sure he wasn't aiming for thebrisket.A lot of times when we're nervous we try for a perfect shot but end up with a miss or a bad hit. That's what I did with the doe I mentioned earlier, and I didn't hit her well. It happens to all of us i guess.

I have had this happen to me , The shot goes through the backstraps , just under the spine and above the vitals , i had some flesh , fat , and hair from tip to knock , but never found the deer , and only found minimal blood , but the deer lived , i saw her a week after with her fawns , and only a scab high in the backstraps...
