On the neighbors place like always.
Saw 4 bucks and many doe. I shot a BIG 12+ at 25 yards.
This was in the last hour of the official season. I'm gonna track him n the morning. It got too dark. I don't understand how a deer could hop up minutes after a direct 270gr .50cal with 100 grains behind it. I saw him take it, it knocked him flat on his ass. Ive never had to track a deer. But I hope I'll find his big ass in the morning. Any tracking tips?
Blood, blood, blood.
But if that doesn't happen, Look for birds hovering about. If it was gut shot, they tend to run down hill, Lung shot uphill.
When deer get shot and panic, they run thru anything, so look for "trails" in the brush/woods where there are small broken branches.
Good luck!
Thank you. I'll email ya some deer chilli. Haha
I aim for vitals, it was a very close shot. But somehow if I magically missed my exact point of aim(which is unlikey,lol) it was close too it.
I didn't see any blood?!?! I could have easily miss it tho. I was a lil excited.
He darted 20 yards straight into a empty creek(about 5-6 deep). Behind the creek is pretty much open field with few cedars and brush. I doubt he could of jumped the creek wall with the injury. But the are amazing creatures so I expect alot from him.
One more question? How long do I have to find him? (How much time before meat starts to go bad? With the overnight temp on mind?
If you get to it first time in the am and get some Ice on it, you should be ok.Thank you. I'll email ya some deer chilli. Haha
