Default RE: Tracking Wounded Deer After Dark

Dave,

It' s not as hypothetical as you think. Two years ago, we shot a deer at last light. I tracked it after about a half hour' s wait and went a few hundred metres before the light ran out on my. I wasn' t sure exactly when the sunset was, so didn' t know exactly when shooting hours ended. I wasn' t sure what I would do if I came across it and still don' t know for sure to this day. We waited until morning and looked all day, but didn' t find the deer.

Our fines are steep up here and the GW' s are just looking for examples to be set. I' d hate to run into one if I buried that final shot, but I think watching an animal suffer unnecessarily is the greatest crime of all.

Sorry about the double posting guys. My computer crashed when I posted the first time and I didn' t know that it made it.
