Were you on the ground or in a tree? For instance was the arrow angling down? If the shot was back and maybe angling back, could have lodged in his hip? If you truly followed him for 2 miles he is very likely either going to be alive for a while or dead within yards of where you lost the trail.

If you had hit just backstraps you would have had a blow out pass thru, as there's nothing up there to even slow an arrow down. If he's carrying the broadhead he's more likely to eventually die vs the head coming out. That being said they sometimes overcome some unbelievable stuff, only way we will ever know exactly where you hit is if you find him?
