Well I spent about 5 hrs today tracking. Pretty confident I missed but I was also pretty confident I was lined up on the shoulder. No blood, no hair, found the tree my muzzle loader round hit but was at a level it could have been a possible passthrough but with the rounds I was using not likely. Only reason we searched long and hard was after I shot we heard the deer crash into a downed tree below. After waiting half an hour we got up and the deer jumped up out of the bottom and ran. Have never seen a deer get shot at and bed close by. You never know how the day is going to go.
