Well, Monday was an up and down day in the woods. I got in the woods right at 12:00, and was settled in my spot at about 12:30. Right around 1:00, a big doe came up about 30 yards behind me. I slowly turned, and was forced to stand up. I put the sights on the vitals and squeezed the trigger...BANG! A cloud of smoke clears, and shes running away. I knew she was going down...I mean, there was no way I could mess up that shot, right? I go over and find a tiny bit of blood right away...uh oh, it's dark. Then I find where she had opened up and sprayed blood quite a bit. Mixed with the blood there were little green chunks. Oh man, this really sucks now. Now the blood is only a drop here and a drop there...pin head sized drops. Finally, it just ran out. I searched all afternoon, and didn't find her. On my way out, I checked the area where she had been, and discovered that my bullet that deflected off a branch, causing it to hit her in the guts. I really never saw it, and I blame tunnel vision... It really sucks to shoot a deer like that...I've never hit one in the guts before. I went back Tuesday, and checked all over...but nothing. I guess I'll go back out today, and hopefully I'll be able to make up for it.-Zach
