Cold weather should get the keyboard clicking CNC. Looking forward to the next series of tracks. It won't improve anyone's aim but DRT deer don't make for tracking stories.

Tracked one this morning for an 80 year old Vietnam vet with 5 purple hearts.......Unfortunately the buck ducked his bolt and it just deflected off the top of his back giving the deer a little spinal shock......He'll live to see another day......It was awesome to get to meet and hang out with Mr. Bob though.

Are y’all retired? I went and tracked one for a buddy an hour and a half away last Saturday night. I didn’t get home till 2AM and I still haven’t recovered 🤣 Nah, I slept from 2am to 4:45am and headed to work.

Call came in around lunch today to look for one that was shot earlier this morning…..The entry was about right but the exit came out back in the guts about where you see Otis’s head…..The hunter saw him bed down out in the distance and then get up again and trot off…..Not having any blood to track he decided to back out and bring in the dogs…..We found him about 225 from the hit site. Reran this one with Lu-lu afterwards to get her some more experience. A cool side note to the story……I stopped by Publix on the way home to pick up some chicken tenders…..I’m standing there waiting on the folks in the deli to box them up and I look over beside me and there stands Bo Jackson…..I hated to be one of “those people” so I just let him grocery shop in peace and went on about my business.

Baffled by this one……Call came in about 7:30 on a buck shot this afternoon. Hunter thought he smoked it and looking at the video I don’t see anything other than that….It looks like hitting the 10 ring with a pass through using a slick trick fixed blade out of a crossbow……Blood was easy to follow for 100 yards and then got a little sparse where they lost it so they called us out. We picked back up on blood and followed it bleeding pretty steady for right at a mile. They said that coyotes were going crazy when they originally tracked it and they were still out ahead of us howling and carrying on when we got there. We eventually went off into a creek bottom where the deer got into a deep creek and beaver swamp system where we lost it. I feel quite certain that the coyotes got on this one running it but I don’t know how this deer was toting this hit to even be able to run. The hunter is supposed to call me after lunch tomorrow to go look to see if we can find it floating in the creek somewhere. [img] https://i.imgur.com/DfYwUt7.mp4[/img]

Went back and looked for the one from last night again today with no luck…..We were able to help another hunter recover a nice buck this morning though. This was the same buck we tracked last week that had been hit in the brisket and showed back up at the same feeder the next day……. We recovered him roughly 425 yards from the hit site. The ol’ expandable rage strikes again on this one… …..Sorry for the huge pics….the image resizer isnt wanting to cooperate right now for some reason. This is where he was hit last week when we tracked him……
