Now the epic conclusion to yesterday’s tracking adventure……..
So the hunter’s brother called me last night and told me that they had shot one of the biggest, oldest bucks on the property. One that they had been hunting for several years and estimated to be 8 years old or better. A huge bodied buck thought to easily be 225 lbs.
The shot was made at around 200 yards as the buck crossed over a lane. They had found no blood or hair but felt like the deer was hit hard from its reaction as it ran out of the lane. They felt like they it could very well be a deer just like the one a couple pics back that had one little entry hole and no exit. They had looked for an hour or so with flashlights and decided to just back out and call in a dog.
Well…they sent me a text this morning (yesterday) saying he had shown right back up on camera and it was a clean miss……he was still alive.
