No luck.......Likely another shoulder shot......Followed it for about 500 yards before it petered out....No more blood past last blood.

If you haven’t seen one in action these little Black Diamond 500 series are some awesome little lights……I went ahead and bought a second one to give to the hunter…..They’re usually far and away brighter than any lights the hunters have and they’re so small and light weight that you don’t even know you’re wearing it……Academy carries the Black Diamond lights but not the 500…..you gotta order it over the interwebs…..They’re $70 shipped but worth every penny.

Cool I'll buy one. Ran two crap tracks but knew it. One was a 24hr shoulder shot. Pretty typical .8 mile hike with a few barks and the dogs getting smoked when he jumped up. The other was meat on the broad head and fat on the arrow. Tracked itn140 yards to the flint river and called it off. Dogs are tracking good anyways

Just got confirmation that the last deer we tracked showed back up on camera last night......That always makes you feel good knowing you called it correctly.

You think that dark spot on his neck is where he was hit? Looks like it's about the size of a broadhead hole.

Yeah that's where it was hit......It was shot at by a kid with a compound in a ground blind.....Probably just jerked his shot a little on a quartering away angle while the deer had its head down

You need to buy a good coon light. Very bright enough to do what you do with the other. Wear it on your head and have two free hands… I use mine for everything. Mine has red/green/amber and 4 settings of LED. I couldn’t ever go back to having to hold a light in my hand.

I hate the coon lights going through thick briars and vines tracking. To aggrevating having them knocked off my head constantly

Riggs got a quick easy track last night. He did great for his start but it was gut and a little lung.


Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

Inch lower on the neck and he's got a dead deer with a blood trail that a blind man could follow. Hate it for the kid but that's pure meat right there and that deer will be fine if he doesnt get an infection and GG from it.
