Got part gut and part lung. How far did he go John? Sounds like you had you had your hands full with that tracking job!? Warm day, so I bet time was of the essence to find him and get him in the cooler! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warm day, so I bet time was of the essence to find him and get him in the cooler!About 400+ yards and not directly. He was actually not far from the cabin once we found him.

grampy Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Great buck, great hunt, great recovery! Way to go! And after killing many deer with a bow, I still get excited before the shot! If I ever lose that excitement, I'll hang up my hunting hat. Congratulations sir! Well done! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a back deck, id love waking up that every morning!! If stand, sure looks comfy! lol Its my stand. One I worked on for 3 + years. First year was the deck / tower i built with my brother, 2nd year I did the railings, 3rd year I did a little hut on top thanks to my buddy @Fairgame who gave me some recycled windows and amazing help getting it complete in a few hours. Bonus pics below.... After a long walk of tracking that buck and getting a rest, I had to strip down to my boxers and cool off... LOL... Also attached a panorama pic of the stand view, you can see it was just logged (logger left today). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that hidden skill is the first time it showed itself. I've lost two deer in my life and I thought this was going to be the third. Oddly enough ALL on this property and over the last 5 years. How do I bang a dear down at 16 with a bow and have so much trouble 20+ years later? So glad we found him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
