The hair was white with tint of brown. My aim was low in the heart region. I broke my own rule for shooting in the evening. I always shoot for the shoulder. Morning shots in the lung area. I will see if he shows back up. I plan on going back to the stand next Wednesday. Give the area time to settle down. Thanks for all the responses. Sarge

I would check the closet water hole near where you shot at him or the closest in the direction he ran. Most will go to water if wounded.

Gut shot & dead.


Not as bad as I could be, not as good as I should be.

Focus on which direction it went. If it was a fatal shot, it will likely go in a straight line at least until it gets on a trail, then it will follow that trail until it tips over. It should start to stink pretty soon, so don't smoke or spit tobacco while you track it. you need a keen nose. I breeze will help you pinpoint where its at.
