Clue 8

Congratulations! You have found the deer after a very long trail. Now let's look at a few of the details. Upon dressing, you find that the arrow hit through the mid/front section of the stomach, went throught the diaphram and caught the back edge of the left lung (not enough to call this shot a vital hit). The front part of the arrow exited very low under the chest cavity and the fletching section was still in the deer's stomach. Judging by the topo and the clues, why do you think the deer went this far?
