Yep, just check arrow weights to maximize your KE. Easiest way is to increase arrow weight by 20 grains and notice when your KE starts to drop rather than increase. Thats when you know your optimal arrow weight.

Im sorry I aint helping ease your heart, lol. It just seems that he's gonna be dead if you hit where you say you did. I know its disheartening. If it makes you feel any better my brother took a shot on a doe quartering to and he also lost his deer. He knows he should have never taken the shot, but he got caught up in the moment. It happens. Do all you can and thats all you can do.
