Title: Tradtracker Tales
Post by: bama on February 07, 2026, 09:53:28 AM
Took me a while to get on the board this year but finally got it done yesterday with an Alabama doe.    She was alerted by another deer as I loosed the string and I hit her far back but luckily the broadhead found an artery.   100% of the orange thread ran out but my end caught on the limb of a pine tree.   I waited an hour and started following the thread.    I had my Olight uv flashlight which made the thread glow like a beacon.   Not once on the trail did I see blood but the doe was DOA at the end with the thread still attached.

awesome! the only TradTracker thread I have managed to loose this year led me to a small pine tree about 20 yards from my stand (I missed a doe high  :biglaugh: ).

gonna try again this afternoon.
