Added a doe to the tally this afternoon but man did she make me pay! 4:30 PM Perfect shot at 25 yards. The Muzzy did it's job. Had a blood trail 8 feet wide. Stevie Wonder could've followed this one. She angled away down a steep ravine and I saw her mule kick as she went over the edge of the bench below. Followed her down the hill expecting to see her piled up just over the lip. NOT!! She continued on down another 35-40 yards and turned onto an old logging road which she followed for about 20 more yards before falling over a 60 foot cliff and landing at the base of a little waterfall. Took a 300 yard walk around just to get into that ravine and then back up the spring run. There were a few places where outstretched arms would darn near touch both sides of the valley. Took till 7:30 to get her those 300 yards out of that hellhole. Thank god for the snow making the drag easier or I might still be out there.
Man the things we do for a pair of backstarps!
