Congratulations Jeremy! At least you found him but sorry to hear you prolly lost the meat.

Yes, I gutted him, drug him out a long ass ways. Smelled to high heavens.... Checked some meat and it was stanky!

Still pisses me off. I know these things happen, don't make it better. It's closure, memories and lessons learned.
 
Well you did the right thing! And if you were iffy about shooting him and want to focus on bigger bucks next year let me know and I will come clear the herd of those iffy bucks for ya! lol

Congrats on a heck of a buck!
 
Congratulations. That's a heck of a nice deer. It does take a little of the fun out of it when you do not recover immediately after the shot. I think it's great that you stayed persistent and found him.
