Hey guys,

Just came in from two and a half hours of searching for a 10+ point buck I shot. Was thinking of heading back out tomorrow but, I need some advise.
I shot him about 3 in. behind the left leg and about 7 in. Down from the spine. I followed his blood trail for 85 yards or so and ended up at a 5 ft. fence. Across the fence the blood trail stops about a 100 yards south from the place I shot him. The rain has washed all the signs of blood I'm sure by now.

To the point, what would you guys suggestion be to find the deer???

Thanks,
N.R.

I found a lot of darkish blood drops about every foot or so while trailing him until the blood trail just stopped.
After he jumped the fence (found hair and blood on the fence post) he headed up hill for 10 to 20 yards and went around on the side of the hill and that's when I lost him.:wallbash:

I guess I'll take your advise timberghost. Thanks both of ya!!!

Thats what I thought tator. He is out there dead and I just need to find him.

I spent four hours this morning searching and will spend some more. The rain from last night has washed all signs of blood. all I have now is the last place I saw blood and fur. I followed the stream that was down at the bottom of the hill for about 1/2 mile. Should I go further or what???
