Good deal! Details and Pics? What kind of terrain? Creeks crossed? Thick cutover?

Whew Saturday was a day. Track no 2 was a deer I shot on Friday evening. Which I felt like was dead. I looked a lil Friday nite decided to back out go back Saturday morning which I did turned my puppy out on it and she trailed around a lil bit found a lil blood but very spotty. Decided to call it off. Low and behold Saturday night the deer showed back up on camera.
Track 3 was for a crossbow shot with a rage. Hunters had tracked almost 300 yards and lost blood. We started out at that point and took it another 350 yards into the most gosh awful briar patch I have ever seen. After some machete work and blood loss we finally drug her out. It was a good shot but the arrow lodged in the off side shoulder.
Track 4 was a doe for a young man on his first bow kill. Fixed blade head comete pass thru they tracked for about 200 yards and lost blood. Got in there and looked around and trailer around dogs weren't real interested in doing much I'm fairly sure it's a back whack.
Track 6 was for a doe. 35 yards expandable broadhead hunter said when he shot the deer flopped around and got up and took off. Arrow had very lil sign on it. Very lil blood in the field. Hunter said he heard the deer go down in the second gosh awful briar patch I have ever been in. Dog tracked to the briar patch this time I took the dog around it and found 2 drops of blood where the deer came. Not sure if the blood was from the arrow or the briars. His ended up no recovery i am certain he hit the shoulder or high shoulder and nerves the deer and it is alive and well.
Track 7 was a doe for a hunter that just basically called the shot as to what happened and wanted verification that deer wasn't dead. He said the deer dropped a lil on the shot and and said he hit high. Tracked for 200 yds lost blood and called me asked my opinion I told him what I thought but of he wanted us in there I was willing to try it. Deer is still alive and this ended up being a back whack as well.
We rolled out about 730 Saturday morning I got home 2 Sunday with a box full of tired dogs. It was hot and dry as it is it's making tracking tough right now. Hoping we get a lil rain and it cool off just a tad. Resting and charging light and collars and getting ready to get afterem again. Oh and add to to it my dang truck charger for my light burnt up luckily I didn't have to walk out without a light it's the second one that done this I'm gone be on the phone tommorrow with the company and hope they get this straightened out or I'll be headed to get another light

That boy still ain't learned to shoot Sounds like my neighbor. He’s shot at 4 deer this year got blood on one and nothing on the others. I had to look for a spike his uncle shot off his back porch yesterday afternoon with buck shot. Riggs never really did much with it and only found a few drops of blood.
Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

I'm fixin to rant a lil this is for all hunters. If you call a tracker and they agree to bring in a dog don't keep calling other trackers and then call the one you already got lined up that cut his family time short to come help your no shooting ass out and tell him you don't need him after he has got his gear on dogs loaded and halfway to you cause somebody else said they 10 mins closer Or the ones that call you to come and help and then just go silent while you have turned down another track and wasted your evening. You never hear from them again to later find out they kept looking and found the deer or just decided not to even look. Happened more than once this season, last night actually...

Buddy of mine called me and dogs in this evening on a if it's the deer he showed me the pics of is a giant for Alabama. He was in a shooting house deer comes out in field I'm gone say close to 250 yards rifle was a 308 with a 150 gr. First 2 shots he said the deer just stood there third shot said the deer broke and run. He got down to look for blood and didn't find anything but wanted me to come in and confirm it was a miss. Well it wasn't a miss. He just wasn't looking in the right place. he had walked around in the woods a lil bit trying to find any sign I'm afraid he may have jumped him accidentally. Anyway we find the where he hit the deer and take off on the blood go up a hill across a old logging road and we're finding blood and places where he stood and bled I don't think he ever laid down. Go down in a holler to a creek blood goes up the creek for a 100 yards or so. We think he crossed it there. The dog is struggling with the track they get hot for a bit and cool off and work it out a lil further. At the creek crossing we lost sign no more blood nothing and the dog kinda gave up on it. We tracked on the blood for 900 yards. I'm fairly sure this is a brisket hit. We never jumped him out of a bed. Or heard him get up. I don't feel like were pushing him cause if so I think he would have gave up and we could have handled business. I fairly certain he just skint up pretty good. Had another call while I was on that one waiting on him to call back
