Just found him!......280 yards from the hit site

It's dark out I'm sneered of the dark. It seems this way to me. I navigate well in the dark.

Congrats! Pictures please.

Thanks! Here you go….Sorry the pic is so big. My phone does this for some reason and I’ve yet to figure out what to do about it….You can hold down the ctrl button on your keyboard and then roll the little wheel on your mouse back toward you to zoom out and see it better all in one frame.

The track was pretty much a straight forward track for tracking with a dog. The deer went a good ways for where it was hit but wasn’t hard to find. He did like a lot of them do and never left the creek he was shot on. After he had finally gone as far as he could go he dipped down into the creek bed and laid up beside a water hole where we found him. The pic was taken after we had already gotten out of the creek. Shelby is licking the entry hole….exit was about the same front to back but lower out the other side. The arrow did have a combo of blood and guts on it. The blood trail was good at times but there were some long stretches of very little to go on as well.

good post. always be willing to give up at least 4 hours tracking a deer, before even pulling the trigger.
