longest recovery ever!!!!!!
« on: Oct 14, 2009, 10:45:03 PM »
last year during the rut i shot a big!!! 10 pointer. now this was the first deer I've shot with my bow so i was a little nervous. he was eight yards away from me under my stand and i hit him high and back. Me and my dad went out and looked the next morning for about 5 hours no blood no nothing. we never told anyone that we shot this deer (BIG MISTAKE) GUN SEASON my neighbor goes and does a drive on the last day they kick up a big buck he shot and thought that he missed about 3 minutes later a driver said there was a big buck down he walked over to it and the deer was all bloated he said this deer was shot awhile ago. we didn't talk to our neighbor until about 3 days ago and he told us about the drive my dad said was there  gold tip arrow in it and he said yeah and we told him about the deer i shot and we saw the antlers tonight so i finally got my deer 349 DAYS LATER that's about the longest it took for me to recover a deer


and i shot the big 10's off spring with my gun last week for my first gun deer

thank you Brandon R****d!!!!
and my dad for putting me in the position to make the shot!!

I'm glad you got your rack but here is a tip for next time. If you think you hit it too far back leave it be till the next morning. If you don't find it then come back the next few days and look and listen for bird activity. I have helps a few friends find there deer this way. The meat isn't always good but it still closes the chapter.

Poop happens, people that never miss don't hunt much.

nielsen326 you are one lucky hunter if that guy turned those antlers over to you. Kudos to the other hunter for doing so. How about some pics of the rack if you got it back?
