Call just came in for tomorrow morning…….another youth hunter. Dad said he believed it was hit low and back. Deer “bucked” up in the middle and took off running. A little bit of hair at the hit site and decent blood. It’s only been about 2 hrs as I type this since the shot so I have to assume they tracked it pretty quickly. They jumped the buck up at 200-300 ish yards and backed out.

I don’t wanna count my chickens before they hatch but I feel like we have a good chance of finding this one. The deer is gonna go another few hundred yards and bed up again where it’ll die overnight. That’s the plan anyways. It sounds like it was hit in the area of the liver/gut and was just tracked a little too quickly. We’ll find out in the morning………….
