The buck was shot with a sabot slug at 100 yards broadside. After shot he ran 30 yards into the middle of the field. He began feeding. But he was walking with a noticeable limp on his front shoulder where impact took place. Unsure if the follow-up shots hit the buck because he did not seem affected by them. He was limping and I have about a 40 yard blood trail that leads into some heavy briars. I've peaked around the briars and I do not see him. It's possible he he's moved on to the next patch of heavy briars. This happened around 7 AM today. A tracking dog is not an option. I'm going back into the woods in a little bit after giving him some more time. The blood trail is light. Wow!

Wish I could stay all day. Seen an owl, hawks, and I'm currently looking at more woodpeckers than I can count, but no deer. Killed half as many as last year even with more effort put into summer plots, fall plots and stand locations. I hope for a turn around next year. Good luck on your last day zone 1 folks and congrats to the killers today.

If so I'm guilty of dog hunting out of dog deer season and hunting in a closed area. I think the gw that told you that is a retard that has no freaking common sense. Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

As a matter of fact I don't think I have ever heard of that.....but good luck hope you find him Life is too short to be small !! http://crshuntingclub.webs.com/

This area hasn't been hunted in about 3 weeks so hopefully something will move on in. As I type this there is a good gobbler pecking around in the plot. His beard is not long but thick as all get out.
