They could be looking for a whole deer laying there. Or don't use a compass to find a deer that is suppose to be laying 50 or 100 yards from getting shot. Of course, you have to make a good shot to do that.
Guess most know they made a poor shot and no deer is going to be found close by.
As usual, 100% horse pucky there. I've had perfect double lunged deer go as far as 500 yards. I've had perfectly hit double lunged with the top of the heart bisected go 250 yards. And then I've seen the same hits put them down in just a few yards. Using a compass is in no way whatsoever going to help find a downed animal. Animals don't go in any certain direction when injured so how in the hell could a compass help other than you knowing which direction you are going? I personally don't need a compass for that.
