Bry.....I guess I could go to where I disposed of the carcass and do an autopsy......but I was in a serious race against time this morning. I wanted to get the meat on ice....and get to work.....so I didn't gut the deer (butchered her without doing so).

I told Rob....the entrance hole was where I saw it....and it had bubbly red blood even still, this morning. The exit hole was low on the off-side...and had what looked like aged meat in the hole (grey-ish). It was a "bit" further back than "perfect".....but was, by no means, a poor front-to-back hit (I don't "think"). No foul smell on the arrow. None at the recovery scene. She was laying on the off-side....and I could tell here NO blood had been on her entrance wound side. If she was bleeding....she was doing so out of the exit wound (again....I am assuming). I did notice a little blood on the inside of her hind legs. I assumed from spray (minute amount).....though the trail was non-existant.

One thing I haven't mentioned is......I had my son with me looking for the initial hour tracking, last night. While my pride has taken a HUGE hit in the last 11 days.....I can look him straight in the eyes when he gets home from school, today. Thank you, God.
