no rob..noone found him that i know of. headed to t hre farm shortly to see...if i had 1000000$ id bet hes alive. if hes alive the farmer will see him coonhunting or farming. theres just so many bucks out there he might not beable to ID it as MINE. that kid that was talkin to me was just asking about it because he heard the story...funny how word will spread. before i called ANYONE but my dad and my buddy THAT buddy already told 2 people! lol only people i told was you guys, my dad, and my girlfriend. oh well..

quik..you got that right! funny thing is.....thats coming from the SAME kid that last year shot a bow like 4 times...went hunting one day in a spot my farmer friend recomended and MISSED 2 shooter bucks before 9am!! oh well...im over it. im pretty convinced that deers ALIVE. 6 of us combed atleast a half mile from last blood in all directions. 5yds apart in thick stuff..10yds apart in open woods. the blood trail was atleast 400yds long and he wasnt being pushed and never once did he lay down. only time he even slowed was after he bounded a couple log piles...but that muzzy is still in him..that had to hurt..still didnt bed. i thought FOR sure hed be on the other side of the logpile downed. im gunna give that spot a little rest..but another week or 2 ill be back in there. opening day of rifle ill be in that tree if i dont get one before then. someone is bound to kick him out to me in rifle season. he cant duck a bullet from the mauser!! i hate to pick up the rifle again...but i wanna put him down and put my tag in his ear!
