Shot the deer and watched him run off into a bean feild and fell over. So i thought he was dead. I start putting my stuff into my back pack and climb down from my stand. At this time it was dark so i got my flashlight out and walked into the feild. Found my arrow about 30 yards away from where he was standing when i shot him. By the looks of the arrow it didnt look like a good shot. The arrow was brown and smelt bad but i thought i seen him fall down so i kept walking into the feild. Got to where i thought the deer fell over at and couldnt find him so i backed right out. Got a dog to come out the next day and help track and the deer. The deer was maybe 60 yards farther in the feild from where i stopped the night before. The shot ended up being a good shot where i didnt need to let him lay over night but i wanted to be safe than sorry. The bad thing is the coyotes got to the deer before i did.
