We had 5 doe eating, 4 left quickly along with all the birds. I should have known the last one was extremely nervous. Qtr too but it spun away from me at the shot (35 yds) and the sound was not good. Deer did not follow its friends. Tracked 60 yds and there is no arrow and very little blood. What little blood there is appears to be really dark though. Deer veered off tractor path, I marked the spot and backed out.
Maxx is gonna get a workout... tomorrow.

Here’s hoping it’s a short track in the morning!

Wow! What a trip! Came around the old farm house an had a major 22 turkey distraction at 30 yds. And of course right where we needed to start. Plus all ran where we were going... Maxx was running crazy w/his head up. Took 4 restarts but he finally (sloppy) lined out on it. About 400 yds he done a 90° right and headed in a sm thicket. 2 beds together and 2 more in about 40-50 yds. Maxx chewed tail in 4th bed. Still no arrow yet...
Gooboy Maxx Dawg!
