If you hit her high she may not bleed much, the body cavity takes time to fill up before running out the entry hole. Also if the arrow is still in, it will help keep blood from coming out as well. If you got her in the lungs she is probably dead out there. Don't just look in a straight line where she ran either, I've had deer make turns and end up going the opposite direction within 150 yards.

Was it a broadside or quartering away shot? How did she act when hit?

Hey guys i couldnt get my computer too let me post. But thanks to Rob/Pa its working now.
I was out at sunrise found my first blood about 250yds from stand. She layed down not too
much blood. About 15yds further she layed down again more blood. I searched in a mile 1/2
radius no deer no blood. I still think i hit her in the shoulder blade with the goldtip/grim reaper.
Maybe the arrow wasnt as deep as i thought it was. It just might of shaddered the shoulder.
SteveBNy/Shultzy I think you guys might of took this the wrong way but a doe does deserve
the same respect as a big buck. Like i said in post #3 i hate too see in game wounded and go
too waste. I just think I get a little more excited when it comes too a buck vs. a doe. Kinda
like a blonde vs. Burnette!!! In closing I just wanna thank you guys for the help and i hope i
learn from my mistake untill next time ia

No problem!! I understand, sometimes when we type words out on these forums it doesn't always come out the way we thought we were explaining ourselves. Been there, done that one! Sounds like maybe you hit that deer in the knuckle of the shoulder, you won't get hardly any penetration there. Better luck next time!
