Thanks! Was a solid thru and thru, double lung. I shoot my bow at 70 lbs.

Learned a couple of lessons, I always try and set up for a 20 yard shot, and will not shoot over 40. I have 4 pins on my sight, 20/30/40 and 60 yards. (The 60 for follow ups which I have thankfully never had to shoot), The deer came in, and was fascinated with the Tinks scent wick I had hanging close to the pop up blind I was in, and stayed at about 5 yards for 10 minutes. When he went to leave, the line he took made me shoot at a “short” 17 yards. I didn’t take any “hold under” with my 20yd pin, and the shot ended up about 4” high, and just above the chest radius, so the deer bled internally, and left no blood trail at all. Fortunately he only went about 70 yards, and I found him by sweeping search.
