Congratulations in finding your deer.

So like you I planned to let it sit for 4-5 hours. Well, then it started sprinkling. I didn't have a choice but to push the animal. I jumped him up 4 times.

Rain will not make the deer die any quicker. IMO you still have to wait it out even if it means no blood trail.

Well, I totally disagree, as I recovered the deer, and seriously don't think I would if not.A hunter needs to make some calls no matter what a book might say. There is no hard fast black/white rules. Under some circumstances, you would be right, in my mine, well I found deer. Proof is in the pudding.

Yes, I did read that you found the deer, and I congratulate you on that in this particular case. However, I seem to hear as a general rule that a person needs to start tracking sooner then they would have because ofweather conditions. My point was that these conditions will not make the deer die any quicker. Nothing more.

Sorry if I seemed to single you out.

I agree Bob.
