Less than ideal shot placement may facilitate a thwarted recovery.

Persistence of the endeavor is required to effectuate recovery, thus a possible triumphant celebration.

A ten man salute is in order.

Thanks to all for the nice comments.  Next time, I hope to report a double lung shot and a short tracking job.

Thats one fine looking buck. Zona must be calling to you now.

Izzy,
Light snow, 7 degrees, and a 20 to 30 mph wind here right now. Yes, the desert is sounding pretty good right about now.

The shot might not have been perfect, but you did an awful lot right beyond that. Congratulations on the fine buck.
