Guys, Kendall (Carpsniper) shot a buck on Thursday. The hit was a marginal one and he tracked later in the day just to jump him. He backed off but then that rain started. He went back (with a tracking dog even) but lost the trail. He's been sick about it and has been searching for it ever since. It's all thick multiflora roses and brambles where the trail was lost, very hard searching.
Anyhow, I do have reason to believe that the deer has been recovered but I don't know how much of the deer is left. I will update you guys. Hopefully, he can still get it entered because he really put a lot of effort into finding it.

Thanks for posting Christine.
But the big thanks goes to Louie Fonseca and Deb "Ladyforge".
The day I shot this guy, Louie came and helped me track him. Without his and the good Lord's help, I wouldn't have found the trail after he crossed the creek. Louie slogged through the woods, prairie, then back into the woods until it started raining and got dark enough that we lost blood.
Then on Sunday Deb came over and helped check more thickets and deadfalls. Then we went out and walked through the prairie to see if he'd gone back and bedded there.
We gave up for a while to get something to eat. (It was after 2:30 and Deb hadn't had any luch yet) I got a call from Drew that they'd seen what may be my deer. So Deb went with me to retrieve it and took the pictures.
Both Deb and Louie gave up a day of hunting to help me. Thank you guys. You are AWESOME.
Ken I'll get it measured. I have no idea what all gets added and subtracted.
