well I went out this morning at first light and found the blood trail and followed it for another 3/4 mile until i lost it. I lost it on top of a hill. If the buck went off either side of that hill he had draws of brush thickets to go into. I walked all the draws off both sides of the hill and never found him. I think he stayed on top of the hill and headed into an unpicked sunflower field about 200 yrds away. I walked the fenceline of the sunflower field and never did find any blood or hair on or around the fenceline. I got about 6 hours invested into trailing him so i guess i did about all i can do.
