[QUOTE="KDM, post: 275194, member: 314"] How did she run? Flat out sprint with tail tucked tight or did she bound a little with tail up or out flat? Did she whirl and run back to where she came from or did she kick and run in the direction she was facing? Did both shoulders/legs appear to be working while she was running? (This speaks to broadside, quartering to, or quartering away) Heart shots without breaking a shoulder do happen, but normally one shoulder is affected by the shot. If the heart was hit, there may not be any blood trail as you shut off the pump, but there should be a spray of blood at the point of bullet impact on the ground. Keep in mind that a brisket shot (non-lethal) can make a deer "Mule Kick" just like a chest shot, but will result in almost zero blood anywhere as only the skin and minor muscles of the brisket will bleed.
