Ty has really been sick about having to give that 175 away-I just told him hunt hard and shoot a bigger one-I was sitting taking chemo in the city when I got a text-he'd hit a buck every bit as big this morning but with two big drop tines. He was hit hard but he got in a willow jungle- there's no snow and Ty is colorblind so can't track real good some days. I told him to leave him and go get Cody he's a wolf on a buck track. He did the and the boys tracked him a half mile to a cutline and a fresh gut pile. Somebody got a freebie monster!!! It got a little better Ty took Sara out tonight and Sara shot a super nice 5x5 her biggest yet.
 
Ty needs to go CSI style and get one of those lights that shows up 1000 year old blood stains on a laundered rug . . . . :wink: :roll:

I wish him better luck next time and there will be a next time by the deer reports that you have been giving!!
 
well he didn't want to push that buck too hard-somebody is probably making up some good B'S about the booner he got today. I'd of probably done the same thing the guy didn't know anybody was on the track.
 
well thats horse $hit :mad: did the buck cross a property line, or did the ahole tresspass to steal the buck? hopefully it will come out as to where the buck ended up. hopefully you find out and then in the words of the great leanin' H..."pop the cocky little bugger right between the runnin' lights!"

It was on public land-not much a guy can do about it-one inch of snow and he could of just still hunted him down.
Click to expand...

well its nice that there are deer like that on your public lands.....not here. i guess if i came across a dead buck like that that was obviously a fresh kill, i would at least try and get it to the deserving hunter. call me crazy.. :?
 
Tell Ty to use a high shoulder shot. That usually puts 'em on the ground from the shock to the spinal column. Before they can get their senses and get to their feet, they bleed out.
 
Or you hit a bit ahead and brisket them-i've guided enough Americans to tell them and everybody else to lungshoot them-had too many track jobs from the 'high shoulder' shot. Big northern whitetails hardly ever drop unless you spine them-they can take a pretty good punch. He did everything right just some bad luck.
