I shot a deer low in the brisket 1 year. Plenty of blood. Blood on the asphalt pavement where it ran across the road to the next county. I tracked this deer all afternoon, and then again the next morning. The last drop of blood I saw was on the pavement. Then it just vanished.

I even went to the home depot & brought loppers to get through the laurel. I cut down brush, another guy helped me on his hands & knees. I was bummed out for 2 weeks. Big mature doe....
