[QUOTE="JIsbell40, post: 1815893, member: 99153"] Right above or right below the spine WILL temporarily shock the deer and after a period of time it CAN get up and run off. I have done this numerous time. High shot at very long range knocks the animal down. Look for scope covers range finder bag whatever. Look back up the hill and the animal is half standing up in the front End. Hop back down there and give him another. Animals stop running when they die. If you don’t hit organs or directly severely damage the central nervous system them will run until they feel safe or they die. This fella shot a deer and it sounds to be the exact same circumstances I’ve encountered on several occasions both by myself and taking friends hunting. I typically refrain from telling people they missed. If he missed as you allude to, why did the buck lay down in the tall grass with his head sideways? Very unlikely but maybe he wanted to nap.
