tracking ?
 

what methods do you all use to find deer after you run out of blood ?

RE: tracking ?
 

Look for blood. There is almost always some there even if it is hard to find. After that, you can do either a grid search or start a circular pattern away from the point of last blood. Using a GPS and map can greatly increase the efficiency of your search. Also, some common sense rules can help. Deer generally will go downhill and toward water when wounded.

Well for one when your tracking your animal and you still have blood, look at the height of it and color of it, and if it beds down, look in the bed where the blood spot is and that too can show you where its hit! Little stuff like that can tell you where it might be hit. Knowing where it might be hit can tell you where to possibly look for your animal in your woods. Otherwise go and look in your bedding areas, make big circles and combyour area real good.
