Yeah I asked DEC, what about the land owner and permission. He said deer search will find owner. Idk first time calling deer search.

If they are busy you'll be lucky to get them out there...Do your due diligence while you wait...it is your responsibility if you want to continue your search.

If it's a liver hit you could have another 4-6 hours anyway.

In case someone knows a deer search its a start. I'd be trying to figure out how to track down the landowner as in deer search are not always available. As someone else said it will be cold tonight if it has to wait until morning.

Lost 2 deer in the past because of a brisket hit both arrows looked like yours covered in hair ...had good blood for 40 yards then it went to spots and gone ..

Posted first at Northern West ER last night before being transferred to West Med Center with my kid who busted his fibula and tibia at football. Changed location to Hosp for Spec Surgery in NYC waiting for orthopedist to look at X-ray...again. Full leg cast for now...surgery maybe?

Broadside. 25yds. Yes that is white hair. Good angle I was only up about 14 feet. It did seem like it got deflected by a beech tree limb. I feel like it caught the underbelly because of the white hair. But there were about 4 or 5 good dinner plate size blood splatters as it trailed it..so I thought that was a good sign. Idk, everything is racing thru my mind right now.

That is not great sign...but it is not necessarily bad sign either.  

Get permission, wait to hear from deer search until around 7pm.  By then if you have permission but no dog give it another go alone.

If you are not sure of deflection then you are not sure of POI.

Non lethal Pass thru scenarios include:

1. Way forward 

2. One leg

3. Backstraps

Shot a nice buck at about 1030 today. Seemed to be a good shot. Waited about an hour to track. Found good blood, a couple good splatters here and there. Lost blood at gas line. Other side posted, went to the address on posted sign, gate was down, no one looked to be around. Called Dec to see what my next step was. Told me to call deer search and they would take care of it, if they can. Called them, left voicemail, waiting on call back.

Arrow looks good, I'm thinking you caught some vital or partial.  Stay patient, follow protocol.  You may have pushed him only waiting an hour.  Get permission and get deer search.  If no deer search available, get friends and family.

No problem I just didn't want to be handing out recovery advice on the same page I'm being misquoted as giving up on one.

Though I've lost my share I've never given in easy.  Thanks for the condolences I'm sure I'll need them again in the future, ha.

Heard from another member Tc recovered his doe, and has begun the fun part of dragging and gutting.

Blood is good....white hair maybe not so much.

Yes but hoping that's exit. That's decent looking and he was in stand.

[Gencountyzeek]

How long is the white hair, longer hair would be belly or brisket area i believe.

wrong thread?? .. live from the hospital..lol

[BowmanMike]

Made it up a beech tree,i didn't think i was going to get out today but a work hold up gave me time for the woods. 

Awesome weather,only problem is the inside of this beech tree is gone,just noticed when i got up here. Since it is not windy i will stay put,this is the only tree that gives me open lanes and covers the two trails that will bring a deer my way. Beechnuts are dropping...

I guess you really can’t pick it out in that picture

Would 4:30pm be too late to get in stand? I have a stand that I have a camera next too but by the time I get home it will be about 4:30ish. I'm going to pull the camera card either way but figured if I was going to be pulling the card I might as well hunt the stand next to it.

[The_Real_TCIII]

TC find that doe yet?

Yes I’ll post up some pics when I get home
