Predator is right, that deer is dead, you just have to make small circles from the last spot, the only way that deer lived is if it was just a heavy bleeder, and if the kid didn't hit an artery, make small circles, and if you can get three or four buddies to help you, make sure the kid knows he didn't do anything that none of us have ever done before, just take the trail slow, tell him we're all pulling for him!
