Deer Bowhunting

My friend shot a small Doe at about 20 yards with a compound bow. It was a pass-through shot that he thought was the lungs. The thing was when the deer was hit it didn't run away as fast as possible. It sort of jogged away at medium speed. We also found very little blood.


Could he have hit something near the lungs? and any idea of how far it could have gone?

Yep! lol

Gut shot. Gut shot deer don't yield much blood and don't sprint on a dead run usually like a lung shot deer does. They don't know they're injured because the arrow passes through them so fast since their isn't any bone and not much muscle in the way.
