Sorry for the long post, but I get a little excited when I kill deer 
. How in the world I did it unknowingly it beats me. Im lucky I didnt gum up the second deer. I saw a good buck and 2 other does cross the fire break in front of me at 55 yards and head up to the clear cut on my left. It was 38 degrees and with a light rain. I was killing the first big doe I saw, screw it. Fast foward 15 minutes and I see 3 does coming out of the THICK creek bottom going right to left across the fire break to the clear cut at 40 yards. They stopped to feed awhile and I decided this was my chance. Drew back on the biggest doe and I saw the arrow in flight and it looked dead on. Lost sight of it and I saw the biggest doe running off with the arrow hanging out of her opposite side. I knew I had killed her, I waited 20 minutes as I was scared the light rain would wash off the blood.
I had drove up to the lease to meet my dad. He was hunting a hardwood hollow 400 yards down from where I was. He came walking down the fire break and said "Heres you deer laying stone dead where you shot her." I was still climbing down out of my tree and knew something screwy was up. Sure enough I got to where I had shot and 5 yards from where I shot the deer laid a 90 pound doe behind a small pine with a hole right through her neck under her head. I almost crapped when i figured out what had happened. I told him that isnt the deer I shot? Sure enough I got where the bigger deer had run and found blood also...I was thinking oh no. Followed the trail 120 yards and there laid my other deer with the arrow sticking out from behind her shoulder.
The deer I was shooting at was facing down the hill and the deer I hit in the neck was facing up the hill in front the other deer with their chests almost lined up. I guess when I shot the other doe picked her head up and when she got it halfway up I drilled her, passed through her neck and into the other deers vitals. Im suprised the arrow had enough behind it to kill the second deer. If I ever shoot another one at 42 yards ill be sure to pick my shots better. I got lucky. But I was still tickled to death
Top doe is 140 live weight bottom is around 80 live wieght. Top was a big ole nanny.
And here is where I killed them. Shot just to the right of small pine tree in the middle towards the end. I got tired of hunting hardwoods so I hunted a firebreak with a few grapevines the deer were hitting.
