Ok went back out and took my dad. we retraced the deers path and went to where the blood stopped and nothing after that. I am at a loss for words. I don't understand. I was so patient waiting for this doe and had the perfect rest and the gun is dead on at 50 yards. I made a perfect shot. She couldn't hardly even walk after the shot, stumbling around and so on. Alot of hair at the spot where i shot her white and brown. But she didn't really start bleeding until after 40 yards or so. We went another 300 yards after the last spot of blood and made a circle all the way around it.

We also went and got the landowners 4 wheeler and went even farther than that looking. And yes we look by every down tree in ever brush pile, creek, holler, etc. Even on my knees ( looking and praying!!) never found her. I am sick its been the best year of hunting life but just not able to close the deal with gun or bow? I am going hunting their in the morning and after that I will look some more just to be sure we didn't miss any thing
