After the last fiasco, I bought a 3M candle recharchable light. With the extra ports on that thing, I could start a car [8D]

I' ve shot a lot of evening deer. Yep, own lots of flash lights. Recovered a lot of deer. Some at night, some the next morning. One, the coyotes got. In a perfect world, every shot would be at 15 yards, a double lunger with a complete pass through. The critter would go about 20 steps and crash.[:-] In reality, folks get excited, critters move or jump the string, a branch or whatnot deflects your arrow, or whatever and you have to trail them. Sometimes pushing an animal that taken a marginal hit will only push him into the next zip code. Let him relax and lay up, and you' ll find him the next morning.:D

Sorry guys, I don' t have any info other than the pic.

If you are gonna track after dark a double mantle propane lantern works better than anything I' ve found so far. It is a little more ungainly than handling a flashlight but works pretty good when hung in a tree for illuminating your gutting area. The light from a propane lantern also seems to help illuminate a larger area at once so you can see the differences between the false red spots on the leaves and the real blood.
I ususally carry a lantern in one hand but have a 3-4 cell maglite in it' s holster. If I need more than the lantern I break out the maglite to help.

Another great pic nub, thanks

The arrows not long, the deer appears small. You can almost see the spots on it.:) Or is that a WV deer???:D
It also appears that it is shot from below or had its head turn up and twisted as if feeding off a overhead branch or some such thing?????
