At the time you posted that the outcome was still unknown. Pulled out until 930 pm and than picked up the trail. Blood tracked for 2.2 km and found him at 1:20 am. Was a hell of a challenge in the dark and rain. Have a few pictures of the bolt and the trail but phone battery died during the tracking. Dressed him, loaded him and dropped him at the butchers on the way home so no pictures of the deer due to dead phone. He was a medium sized 8 pt. I'll post some more tomorrow. Bushed and hungry and ready for bed.
Lucky part was the 2.2 km track ended a 150 yards from a concession road so was able to drive the truck to that point instead of dragging him all the way back.

Nice work!
That sounds like a hell of a job, especially solo at night in the rain.

Species, that is great to hear. That is an amazing job, and at night and rain. Wish everyone could track like that. Where was he shot, that is a long way to travel. I'm not asking to be bad, always curious to know how far they travel. I have double lunged them and seen them go 400yds a couple of times. I'm thinking a one lung the might go for days.
