Great story and congratulations on a great deer and especially a fine tracking job. Always trust your dogs nose. Your story is encouraging to me at the moment because I'm reeling from a failed tracking job on Sunday. Mark my word, a tracking dog will NOT ALWAYS recover a deer. It happens. It hits hard. I love to read a story like yours...helps us all realize anew the awesome feeling of finding your deer. Congratulations!

Great buck! I enjoy reading success stories. Glad you stuck with it. Hate to see people loose big bucks.

Nice buck. Glad you found him. Looks like a good dog to invest some time training to trail.

greetings There is only three reasons a good dog will not find a fatally hit deer 1 It is not fatally hit the hunter thinks it is fatally hit, the dog knows otherwise. 2 The dog has a head cold and can not smell( that is me being polite). 3 you have blown a leg off it and a roe deer on three legs will go as fast and as far as if it had four. then you need the gwp that they have bred over here, it will go, run and kill the deer. i don't have one and never will, trouble is i am always scared they will turn on a child or something they should not be killing. But i have seen one in action, four hours after my friends client wounded the deer, it killed the roe in a river, we needed the garmin tracker on to follow it. Not really on option unless like us you have thousands of acres of ground, the last thing one wants is a gwp killing a deer in someones garden.

Nice deer! I can tell he ended up down low because of all those paw paw leaves in the pic! They are always thick in the deepest places.
