Oh yea....congrats Dan!!!!
Good job, karma heading your way....View attachment 89694 my friend called me this morning to help track one. Got extremely lucky. He's colorblind. Started zero blood zero nothing except leaves rustled which turned into a directional grid search. Found 15 vertical drops of blood 300yrds away. That turned into another directional search to main creek crossings into a standing corn field. That turned into a hands and knees track job mainly follow light fresh tracks with finger cut blood on stalks here and there in the field. Around 500yrds from the stand he was piled up. Only good blood was 20 yrds from where he laid. If he wouldnt have went to corn he'd been lost I think. It was quartered hard hi gut/hip shot hit arrow stuck n him. One of my best luckiest track jobs I've had.
All that bitching is paying dividends!!!!Best evening of the year so far for me. Saw my first shooter and rut action of the year. I feel like I'm getting close.
