If your unsure call a dog in before going after him. This is not a trophy but I want the meat.

With a 30.06, unless you just grazed him or hit it in the lower part of a leg - you should be ok. I've gut shot a few, hit some in the flank area, and normally with that caliber they are recovered. Good luck.

I would go now and see if I could pick up the trail and follow it at least 200 yds. If blood is hard to follow decide about calling a dog. If you are confident in following the trail keep going.

You got buck fever. I have had it before and still get it.
Call a dog and give this animal some respect by making every effort to recover it.
He may not be dead but you need to be sure.

Mike has asked for you to call him.
He gladly works off of donations.
Why would you not call him and at least let him try?

If I’m not mistaken smells is dealing with VERY small acreage here. A tracking dog might not be an option. I hope you find him buddy.
