Talk about luck, the good lord sure shined on me today! First trad kill shot with a shark broadhead 190 grain with a 100 grain brass insert. Took out one lung and broke the shoulder on the other side.He made it about 60 yards and nose dived several times,guys it was great!!! My buddy was on the same ridge and texted me this deer was heading my way did not tell me it had 8 points.lol thanks Luther for the text and the help getting him out...

Nice deer - Congrats!

Pope and Young doesn't allow electronic devices for the rules of fair chase. "By the use of electronic devices for attracting, locating or pursuing game or guiding the hunter to such game, or by the use of a bow or arrow to which any electronic device is attached."

Whether an alerting call or text is "guiding" the hunter is open to debate; I guess. If your guide says "look left" he expects a big tip if you look left and see and take a nice head of game.

Yes any communication device used to aid someone else in taking a deer is illegal in Ohio.
