Got a sad story. When I started up the creek toward my tree I thought I got a strong whiff of deer urine. Shortly after climbing as I said in my lftt I heard grunting but was unable to locate the source. Around 9:15 I looked over my left shoulder and saw tall white antlers moving through the edge of the thicket. He was steady walking with his nose on the ground. When he got to the trail where I walked in he paused and the crease of his shoulder was framed in a small hole in the brush. I was a little concerned with the limbs but I was sure it was a shot I could make.Everything looked and felt good. He made about a 20 yard sprint and just stood there for maybe 3 minutes then walked off. I gave him about 30 minutes and climbed down to find nothing. I searched for my arrow for about an hour to no avail. It had vanished. Then just to be safe I did a 2 hour grid search for the buck. No arrow, no blood, no hair, no nothing. I've been bowhunting a long time and I've missed deer before but it always bothers when I cant find the arrow. Sorry for the wordy post but I needed to vent. I know this story. It happened to me about a week ago. Find the arrow.
