Congratulations SIR! I'm sure he's your biggest trophy. And by that statement, I'm mean how much he means to you. Great job!

The story and your perserverance are admirable, but the photo of your boy with the pop gun is priceless. I believe that boy has a "hunters" eye!

Great deer and job tracking him down for sure!   :clapper:  

But I wouldn't be to hard on your friend.  Bad hits happen sooner or later if you bow hunt enough years.  A muscle hit that takes two days to pressure the deer before getting a shot on him is not in my book giving up on a deer.  I would have figured he was flesh wounded and would recover given the opportunity to rest and heal up particularly if I saw that kind of hit on the shot and found so little blood.  I have been there and done that.  The deer survived.

Nice job and great tracking, had a similar situation with a 7 point but he turned bad on me because of the heat. Still have his rack but the meat was tainted.

Hi Todd, your right, I wasn't hard at all on my huntin partner. He was harder on himself. He went over it again and again in his head, he did give up on a HEAVY bloodtrail though...which is the issue. The blood was so heavy the first day you would be shocked. Then just about disappeared. I've blood trailed my share, this was extraordinary.
Anyway, he was so disappointed in himself, he just stopped tracking. He was giving up on himself, forgetting there was another on the other end that deserved better.
Lesson learned.

Beautiful little buck-- glad you honored his life with your effort.

Yornoc, I applaud your perseverance and congratulate you on your success. That's a fine looking buck and from your story most definately a trophy.
