My arrow went a little left (should have known as it has done this before) so I got the guts. Arrow had blood, but not a drop elsewhere. None! Looked for a little trail fairly close in, just to get a feeling of the general direction, but no luck. So I came in and met with my men's small prayer group - among some more important matters, like my good friend's marriage, and a young mother's cancer, we also prayed I find this deer. And I gave thanks for not absolutely needing that deer to feed my family.

This morning, I walked almost on top of it. In a high grass area! It was across the small creek in an area that I guessed it might be in. At any rate, I am very very happy! Not much of a deer, but a doe for my antlerless archery tag.
