I usually just snap a quick pic with my phone of Otis and the deer when we find it. I’m not much of one for posing and all. The funny thing is….Otis ain’t either. Anyways, I’ll try to start thinking to also snap a second pic of where the bullet or arrow hit the deer so you can see exactly what happened. I’ve got this chart we can use though if I forget.

That last buck was a very lucky one to recover. Another inch or so higher and he would have just slapped in on the back. He hit it just low enough under the spine that it really hurt the deer pretty bad. I knew it was hurt bad to just stand out there and let someone shoot at it multiple times. Even after it finally moved…it only ran 50 yards and laid down on its belly trying to hide.

He hit it in the lower part of the B7/B8 area.
