Well redemption came quickly……was able to recover this buck today at lunch that ol’ boys girlfriend shot Saturday afternoon in the leg/brisket area…..The track was 44 hrs old and we found roughly 400 yards from the hit site in some really thick volunteer pines…….Back to even Mr. Drone Man... wink

Also recovered another gut shot this morning from yesterday afternoon’s hunt…..The is the first one I’ve ever recovered without a head……The deer was right on the property line and had already been discovered by the neighbors that morning due to some buzzards….You can't tell it in this pic but the whole back end on the other side has been eat up…….Just out of luck I happened to track for the neighbors as well and after a quick phone call to the caretaker the story had a happy ending smile
