Well, a buddy and I took up the blood trail around noon. There was a ton of bright red blood for the first 60ish yards but ended up losing blood after a bit. Ended up combing the area. She was in a bed not more than 20 feet from us for about 15 minutes but we didn’t know she was there. All of a sudden, she jumped up, immediately fell down, got back up and then hobbled across the field before I could get another arrow in her… I feel like it’s amateur hour out here. Anyway, we saw where she went, found fresh blood and decided just to mark the last blood we saw and back out. Going to try picking it up later this evening. Hope I can recover her. Going to try everything I can.

Back in the blind. Two small rub trees out in front have been totally decapitated.  |

I’m on a stand as well.
Saw one doe she was about 80 yds away.
Tonight I’m using my crossbow.

These mature bucks are vampires. Only moving at night.  |

My son called me, he shot his first deer with his bow. He said it was broadside 15 yards. Angled shot down, hit a little high. But the arrow was covered in blood and he said he heard a crash. I’ll let you know soon the outcome. Hoping for a good one

I saw one unidentified racked buck cruise through at about 75 yard around 645, and momma doe caught me on the plot at last Light.
Anyone have a saddle setup for sale at a broke dad friendly price? I’ve gotta get back up in a tree lol
