Well dang...…..no recovery......When I talked to the hunter on the phone I thought he had seen the arrow hit the deer in the guts. Turns out he wasn't for sure if he had actually hit or missed. The shot happened really late so he couldn't see his arrow flight and he couldn't find it after the shot. He assumed that it was in the deer. We gave it a good search though and the dogs didn't pick up on anything. The hunter was only about 10 ft off the ground in a ladder stand. I think he may have possibly just shot over the deer and slung his arra off through the bushes. It was sure nuff a dang stud though. He had trail cam pics of the deer for the last 3 years. Hopefully it shows back up for him. There was really only a small head of woods between two cotton fields where the deer would have likely ran and he for sure wasn't in there. We gridded it off for about an hour and a half.
