POST YOUR HUNTING PICS THREAD

[addisonlee]

From where I shot her and where I found her was only about 40-50yds. I put a bad shot (gut shot) and had to leave her over night to recover the next morning. As for the buck pics, had a few encounters with different bucks this year but none giving me a good shot. A few more weeks and the rut will be in full effect and bucks will be cruising every where.

Big ass red fox squirrel there.

It's always a good thing to let the animal sit for atleast 6-8 hours un-pressured if you're not sure of the shot placement. Also remember that if you wound an animal and you lose track of the blood trail, chances are good that they'll always go down hill or to the nearest thick cover. By following these two tips, you should never lose a wounded animal.

Thanks for all those tips. I don't have the patience to wait 6-8 hrs. But I wouldn't mind waiting 30 minutes. Then I'll tiptoe after it.

WERD. Sometimes they'll even circle back to where you shot it. 

True story.

True, I had a bull elk do a circle on me only to find it 50 yards from where I shot it. Crazy animals.

I was lost in the woods once. I found myself circling to the same spot 3 times!

2010 bow season has been pretty fun for me this year.  This year I shot and killed 3 deers with none being bucks.  Yesterday went out on unit 77m in ozaukee county and had a 180lb buck come in at 35 yards.  The area I sit is to thick to get an arrow off at 20 yards so watch the little 6 walk away.  That was at 710am.  Then at 840am came in 3 does.  Got this one in the picture.  Died 50 yards from where I shot it.  When I got down my stand and glance at the area where it ran, I noticed a white belly.  Went over there and check the shot placement,  right where the shot was suppose to be.  The deer did brake my arrow and I couldn't find my broad head end.  Wat surprise me was I got down 15 mins after the shot and the deer was already dead.   Now waiting on any size antler to come by.

Ill say 90% of the time when a deer is shot they run back to where they came from.  Reason is they were safe all the way until they were shot. That's my .02!

[addisonlee]

Good story Fisher! Glad to know there's still good hearted Hmong people out there.  

Shoulda asked him for more hot spots.  

BY the way, where did you hit the buck? (Don't see any blood accept the ground)
