    I shot a doe tonight. We gave the doe an hour and 15. We tracked for 250 yard and then jumped her. We backed out till tomrrow morning. The shot was 20 yard from a ground blind, with a rage broad head. Got a complete pass through. We had blood the whole 250 yard, the blood wasn't heavy. It almost looked like she was blowing blood for the mouth or nose. Nothing but little speckles everywhere. The shot looked pretty good. There was a pop that sounded good.

    Need some guidance and opinions on what might have happen.

    Might have gone through the legs. Might have clipped the bottom of a lung. Good luck on that one. You did the right thing by backing out.

    Usually if they are blowing blood out their nose is a sign of internal injuries. Could be anything but usually a lung.

    Sounds like you got one lung. Been there, long track with patience required. Get a dog to help if you can.
