My son hit one this morning, but we couldn't find it. First deer hunt ended in heart break. More on my part than his. I think he hit too far forward. The front leg was broken but blood was scarce. We searched until we actually got lost, putting it up twice, but never getting it.
BTW, special thanks to the two archery hunters on SGL 79. While searching, we blundered right through their set up and not only were they not upset, but they'd seen the deer lay down and spent about an hour helping us search. My hat is off to these two gentleman, especially after our search trampled up most of the ground they were watching. I wish them a lot of luck at that spot. Props to them, for sure.
