I’ve always disagreed with this statement. I think too many people are too quick to “say oh well that’s part of it”

Just a couple more questions about your deer? How long & over how much area do you look for her? Please tell me it was more than 60 yds into the woods.

It’s rare and odd, but sometimes even on a GREAT shot, there is little or no blood. I shot a doe a couple weeks ago, perfect double lung. She ran a huge circle and ended up covering 150 yds (half of which I was able to watch her) There was no blood at impact, or for the initial 15-20 yds that I looked. We picked up the trail at the 80-100 yd mark where there was still no blood, just leaves kicked up and broken twigs where she ran. It was this sign that we used to trail her, finally finding a few drops of blood before finding her 150 yds away from the impact point. You sometimes have to rely on more than just blood to track a deer.
