There is always the search for that magic bullet. Lots of folks do not shoot them in the right place and then expect the bullet to perform miracles. There is not a muzzleloader bullet made that will turn a gut shot into a bang flop 100 percent of the time.i have tracked a lot of badly shot deer and a few elk for folks. Last Sat. i found a faint blood trail going across a road on the private property where i was hunting.Since i am the onlyperson authorized to hunt on the place; i followed the deer trail through the big bluestem grass for about 150 feet and there laid a doe-gutshot.Field dressed that deer and took her to the butcher: The meat will go to the food bank when i pick itup later today.
