what happened to this deer?
First morning blackpowder. 6 pointer comes in at 50 yards. Grunt him to stop. Aim pretty well although nervous. Hit in chest, maybe a little far back? Runs up hill with tail down then walks across field a hundred yards into woods.
Wait 30 minutes. No blood anywhere!!! Cross field and search all runs. Finally find a large drop 2 hours later. Dark, dark red. A drop every 10 yards or so for 100 more yards. Then lose trail.
Please help, this is my first buck.
Thanks,
Pierce
