I haven't visited an old favorite wma in about 2 years, you can get wrapped up in leases & private land. Something convinced me to hit it with the Bow & climber Friday, in the wind & rain. Even knowing the area at one point I found myself dragging this hoover 50 yards in the wrong direction. Perhaps the weather & getting soaked turned me around a bit, ironic how once I finally got to the truck the rain stops. The shot was 25 yards & a pass through, still lost the blood trail after maybe 40 yards, rained out. From there I had a good idea he direction he went, kept an eye out for any sign, anything like fresh stumbled tracks etc. The track was about an hour, near the end the wind & rain was erasing sign so I criss-crossed. Man was I getting worried but I stuck to it. He went about 80 yards.
