On the first one the hunter feels like he hit too high. He said he thought it was about where it should be as far as front to back but it looked like the entry was just under the backstraps. He got a pass through but didn’t see any blood on the ground and just backed out to bring in a dog…..
The first track this morning turned out to likely be a high shot just under the spine……We tracked the buck for around 800 yards and called it off after assessing that it likely wasn’t a good hit.
The buck from the call quoted above showed back up on camera. Look just behind the shoulder toward the top of the deer and you can see the wound. It’s amazing that deer can live from this but it’s proof that you can zip an arrow through one just a little too high and him survive.
But there’s no such thing as a dead spot CNC. It’s not possible that the buck is still alive.
