Thanks everyone.

Ok, I just got home from work about 5 pm yesterday, I rushed to change and get out to the stand.

it took about 10 minutes to dress and i was out the door. My stand yesterday is about 300 yards from my house (right in my back woods) so about 5:15 I was in my stand and just lit a smoke.

then ''CRACK'' i turned to my left and here he comes. He was no more than 5 feet from my tree right behind me. I do a 180 and draw.

Im 20 feet up shooting almost straight down, and let it rip.

The Lazer Eye lit red and he was off, he ran to my back trail as I saw the nock glowing and then he stoped and the lazer eye nock was on the ground. He just walked away, right out of sight.

I climed down and went back to my house to give him time to bleed out.

At that angle it was hard to place the arrow. seemed like a good shot to me tho.

Finally its time to look and recover.

I have my youngest boy (16 years old) get the quad and a few lights and my gerber blood light and off we go.

We went right where the arrow dropped. It was coated in bright red blood. and the rain was washing the blood away quickley. We find the blood trail quickly (by the puddles) He walked right down the atv trail about 50 yards then into the thick. We lost the blood a few times, the gap of blood was getting farther and farther apart untill there was none. The rain did a number on the blood, even with the blood lights.

I called up a good friend of mine and he was at my door by 8:30 so i sent my son in and I was off again.

We went to the last spot of blood and went the path that was the easyest for a deer to go through.

It seemed to go right in a 30 acre corn field behind my property.

we walked the corn field with no signs of anything, it was time to call it quits. its now about 10:30

5 hours later with a dead end in sight. We jumped on the quad and went down the road to the corn field and nothing. I said lets just call it quits, Instead of taking the road back to my house we went between my land and the corn field, I turned off the road and no more than 10 feet in there he was. right in the opening around the field. We were about 20 feet from him when we walked the field but never went to the road.

Ill tell you what, to adult men had one hell of a time loading this brute on the quad.
