DaveC I'll third that, be patient and quiet, many times the deer/animal will turn even circle and you might just see/hear them come around.

Amosgreg Your welcome, this thread and all it's great points from everyone is good for all of us, I'm learning alot and gaining confidence in my fellow bowyers. Last several season we always get the "I've hit him, now what?" posts, I hope this topic/replys helps us all....Marking tape is another great idea, especially in bad weather, just remember whatever we take into the woods, we should take out.

RockytopGood point about the lighting and partnering up on animals.

PABowhntr thanks for the vote and you know what I'm talking about....Great advice about high pressured areas. That's another lesson we all read about or have experienced. I can't believe that people like that call themselves sportsmen or hunters, I think their slobs and poachers.

Dav...Shortdraw More great stuff....Dave's right, it's important that we pay more attention to what the deer does and goes after the shot that way we can relay the information on to those who might come to help us, the more information we relay to a good tracker, the more the tracker and do his/her job.

Wolfen You make it sound easy....and your right, it can be when everyone takes the time to practice, take good shots and listens to all the advice here. It should be that easy. Great stuff on determining the sign on the arrow. Keep it coming.

Again, Davidmil Your right, most of the time what we think is usually wrong. Especially when all the wheels are turning and the adrenaline is pumping and everyone might be around...etc....


ALL
This is why it is very important to slow down, wait, be patient and listen to all the advice given above. There sure is alot of experience here to read up on. Hopefully with everyone's help here and the more I hope that follows, we can find all our animals this year. I know some get away and I hope they are the ones we see again. If we all heed the above advice, lost ones should be a thing of the past of this board and our members.

Let's keep this current through the season, just a bump or two from time to time. Something here for everyone, including me.
