Default RE: tracking

The deer will come back to their beds or bed in that same general area if you do not put to much pressure on them. Dont worry. About the doe--did you find the arrow? If it stuck in her and did not penetrate the other side it is possible she wouldn't leave much blood--Look for tracks that are really dug in and also look for blood on vegetation that she would have passed by. Typically (not always) a mortally wounded deer will run down hill and will usually run strait thru brush instead of staying on trails. If all else fails search in grid pattern formation and use your nose. let us know if you find her. good luck
