Yeah im going to go look again today at noon time, If he is down im sure the wolves or coyotes probally got him. What makes it hard is the snowfall we got he will be covered, but ill go anyway and keep my fingers crossed. thanks pops.
Well i went back out and could not find him, i covered a big area and couldnt find any predator tracks or sign of him being down. The more i think about the shot i think i may have hit him in the shoulder. i just hope he lived. Man it sure sucks, i waited all year for a buck of this size to walk in and i screw it up.
Ill be back out this weekend to hunt some more. I seen 7 different bucks this past weekend in this big apple orchard im hunting, watched 4 of them sparring 30 yards from me. Some of the smaller bucks are shedding there antlers already also. Good to the guys that are still hunting.
Merry Christmas Guys!
