RE: Recovery help asap
ORIGINAL: PABrent Liver shot deer need 4-6 hours on the ground. Hitting the liver will cause INTERNAL Hemorrhage. The deer should bed down within a few hundred yards. Also I firmly believe the deer will take the path of least resistance IF it is not jumped. After that its hard to tell. I just recovered a liver shot deer and I took out 1 lung. The deer ran about 500 yards AFTER I jumped him. Get a buddy and one of you stay on blood, the other make large circles and you'll find him. Dont give up If they die in an hour... they'll still be dead in 4-6... when I wrote in my first post that they'll usually die in an hour..... they usually will.... but... like I said.. they'll still be dead in 4-6.. liver hits can be funny.... if you get a good amount of dark red blood... you got the major arteries that flow through the liver... and an hour would be a long time... if you just clip it... then the deer could live for more than 6 hours.... variables.... |

Jim That GPS thing is awesome. It should go directly into the recovery thread! What a great use for a tool most of us have anyway!

Dont give up buttom line do the norm and check downhill and path of least resistance,... then check the none norm I agreeno two deer are the same, but in common practice I was giving advice to start from. Noone can give him the solution of finding a deer. You could even break it down to which lobe of the liver is hit and how much blood will be lost. But this is impossible without recovering the deer. Assuming your exit is high the blood trail will be light because it will pool inside the deer. Having a exit wound low will provide a better, not best, blood trail still allowing for the hemorrhage internally which will prove fatal at some point. The fact there are so many variables can make for a quite long argument on this topic. Either way back off give it time and take it up with first light. I wish you the best of luck!! |
