Bad shot!! What do yall think??
I shot a nice buck tonight. The arrow went clean through, but I hit him about midway back in his body (middle of his body actually). It wasa little high. He ran off not fast but at a good pace. There is a hard surface road between the properties, I found blood going across the road. I was not tracking him, I was going back to the truck and found it on the road. This is at least 120 yds from the shot. Please give me some insight about tracking him. I shot him at 5:45pm. It is now 7:18pm. Do I go and track or what? I have to work tomorrow, I can go tomorrow at about 3:00>

Read this........it's been pinned to the top of the forum for months now.
http://www.huntingnet.com/forum/tm.aspx?m=2272257 Also IMO you need tosearch forhim tonight based uponwhateverevidence you find and after waiting the appropriate amount of time. This isn't something you just put off because it's inconvenient or doesn't fit into your work schedule. Read that thread, figure out how long you want to wait and suck it up........it could be a long night and/ ora sick day tomorrow. |

You do not need to go work, ;)
It is your responcablity to recover any thing you shoot.Call off and go find your deer. |

RE: Bad shot!! What do yall think??
Sounds like liver with the dark blood you described. I would wait a minumum of 6 hours and go track about midnight.:D Sounds like it could be a long night. However, you owe it to that animal. Good luck my brother. If it in fact is a liver shot he will die.

RE: Bad shot!! What do yall think??
I can't call in tomorrow, Im a teacher and we are giving 9 weeks test, to late for me to make a lesson plan, I can go tomorrow at 3:00. But I think I will go back in a little bit. He was trotting off with tail tucked and bleeding pretty good.

Yea all the little empty heads will spend their free time smoking crack & molesting small animals with out you. The guilt will be unforgivable.
Go find your deer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
RE: Bad shot!! What do yall think??
Sounds like a liver shot to me. I would wait at least 6 hours and go back in after him tonight since you have obligations in the morning. If it is indeed a liver shot he should be dead.
