I cant believe that there would even be a thought not to look for the deer because of spooking other deer. You wouded it now its your job to find it.

ORIGINAL: rybohunter

If you don't go in an exhaust every possibilty and give it the most effort you can, you are a slob.
I didn't have to go any further than the first sentence of the first reply..Iagree with that statement!

If you don't plan to exhaust every possibility to find a deer then don't take the shot! EDIT: I really hope this was a rhetorical question!

Trust me..........you don't want to get ME started on this topic.

Exhaust every effort at your disposal to find every animalyou release an arrow at. There is NO other way.

It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.

You turn the woods inside out if you have a hit deer. You exhaust any and all options. It doesn't matter if it is a monster a spiker or a doe.
