A dog that good probably 24 hrs maybe more. I think Mike told me 48 hours last year, and she has found some lost longer than that just by grid searching an area downwind of a dead deer.

Hands down the best tracking job I've ever seen. We trailed this deer approximately 3.2 miles according to gps. He made a few turns and circles, but he covered some ground. She finally caught up to him about 3.1 miles after started. She bayed him up after a couple hundred yards and he wasn't going anywhere. I had to finish him off. My shot went a couple inches left of the base of the tail, in the left hip, and drove straight into the gut. Not sure how the deer made it that long, or traveled that far. Now to the deer itself. He is NOT the deer I thought he was. He's very similar, but lacks the brow tines of the deer I was after. Not sure how I didn't catch that, but it wouldn't have changed the outcome. I had already decided to pull the trigger. So here is. Thanks for all the prayers and support. And thanks to Howton21. He ain't worth much, but he can drag and takes good pics.
