I had one more call come in today from a bowhunter that I tracked for way back at the beginning of the season. He was still out there with his stick and string and finally got another whack at one this morning.
He said it was a long shot out around 45 yards and at first he thought he had missed low just under the deer. When he went and recovered the arrow though, he said it looked like a low gut hit with some white hair on the arrow as well as some gut matter. He’s using Rage expandables so maybe this time it will pay off for us. He asked how long he should wait and I told him at least 12 hours. He agreed so we just decided to give it until tomorrow morning to track it. Hell, it may not even be dead then. He didn’t track it so hopefully the buck stayed close and bedded up. We’ll find out in the morning. To be continued………..
