Deer will almost always run a bit after being shot with an arrow. Sometimes they run 50 yards and sometimes they run several hundred yards, so I can't really say there's a specific answer to the distance that they go. At times, I've known people to go and get a dog to help them recover a deer but that's not the norm. Usually hunters either see the deer go down or follow the blood trail to recover the deer. Hope this helps.
That sure helps,. Thanks for the education lesson. Cheers, Ken.

My pleasure, Ken. I've learned a ton from many great members on this forum so I am happy to share anything that I can along the way.
