I shot a nice buck tonight. The arrow went clean through, but I hit him about midway back in his body (middle of his body actually). It wasa little high. He ran off not fast but at a good pace. There is a hard surface road between the properties, I found blood going across the road. I was not tracking him, I was going back to the truck and found it on the road. This is at least 120 yds from the shot. Please give me some insight about tracking him. I shot him at 5:45pm. It is now 7:18pm. Do I go and track or what? I have to work tomorrow, I can go tomorrow at about 3:00>
To be straight with ya, its one of the worse places to shoot em. They bleed very little. But if you found blood going accross the road 120 yards away, then you have a shot. I myself would wait until 8 or 9 and go back and track in the dark. If you don't find em, go back tomorrow.
