CNC- there will be some common things as you look back over all these tracks. Maybe for instance: caliber most likely to used resulting in a track good shots ( good bullet placement) versus bad shots age of hunter calling for track distance of shot resulting in the track time of day -morning or afternoon found deer - hit in front end or behind shoulder lost deer-hit in front end or behind shoulder club or private land
Oh yeah...there are a lot commonalities. The caliber of gun doesn't seem to be one though. We get tracks on just about every gun in the book.
Young hunters is a very common one that repeats itself.
Back-Whacks are very, very common....maybe even the most common marginal hit.
We are much more likely to recover something hit in the back end of the deer rather than the front end.
Blown off legs are a crap shoot to recover and pretty much requires running the deer for long distances.
A lot of bad angles on shots.
A lot of very rushed shots taken as soon as the deer was seen or stepped into the field.
