If it was straight on and and had blood up to the fletchings, he shouldn't be far. But deer never cease to amaze me by how tough they are. Good luck your meat should be ok! Keep us posted. And pics when you recover!

My dog can/has track deer. Not sure since it rained last night if she could now. Where in Bradley County are you?

Odda are not goo if you had no blood on a straight on chest shot. Stand where the deer ran and think where you would go if you were in tremendous pain.
Always keep in mind, deer in pain do not think clearly. With a shot like that, in all probability, the deer is just running in a blond panic for the first 50-75 yards. Then it may start to think. Just go look.

Sorry for the slow Update (no signal where I hunt) - the rain did wash all signs away. Had a friend to go help me look. Searched all morning through thickets valleys brush piles etc. nothing. We covered the whole hunting area. I hate it, have that sick feeling, was looking forward to some deer jerky. Thanks for all the replys, encouragement, and tips. Not the way I anticipated ending bow season. Looking forward to muzzle loader season in November. Thanks once again.

Well, Nacho, as they say...critters gotta eat too...better luck on the next one. I am curious if there is any water around your area? Like a creek or stream...maybe a lake or large pond?

Poleaxe thanks for the offer. I will keep you in mind if it happens again.
Is there water around? No, not on the land I hunt. Adjacent land, yes there is a large pond about 1 mile out (opposite direction from where the deer ran). I'm not aware of other water sources within the area. Topo map just shows trees.
