shot a big 8 this morning at 7:30...didnt hit him all that well. got down at 10:30 and found blood after about 40 yards (pass thru). found good puddles where i last had sight of him about 60yds from the shot. followed the blood a lil ovr 200yds then lost it. found it again after about another 100. then decided i shud back out n giv him sum more time as far as he had made it. gonna go back out at 2 and hope to god i can find him. i have only seen this buck a total of 4 times this year, but 3 mornings in a row at 7:30. i decided to relocate with my climber to get to where i knew he'd be. hope i didnt blow this as he is an easy poper

Good luck finding your deer, 870. That kind of situation can put you on pins and needles.
I had a nice 6 pointer come within 8 yards of my stand. I drew on him, but he was straight-on, so no shot, then he turned behind some branches and never got to get a good shot off at him.
I won't be able to get back out into the woods until the weekend after Thankssgiving, so I hope some others on our team can make their scores in the meantime!
Good luck everyone.
