Thanks for the positive thoughts.....I have a friend going with me, 2 sets of eyes can't hurt. Going first thing in the morning.....

Good luck in the morning.
Maybe see if deer search can come out. If the deer is dead a dog will find it

Oh how I hope you find her Ron.

Ron, I sure hope you find that deer, praying you do.
I would like to congratulate you on being a true sportsman by respecting boundaries and going about things in the right manner.

Sounds like she might be hit a little farther back maybe a little liver in the hit. Probably not a bad thing you let her lay down for awhile. Hope all goes well sounds like you will get her. Good luck Ron.

Its not even light out and I had to check back just to see. lol To me this anticipation is better than opening gifts at Christmas.

This is my day just before sunset on November 8 of this year.

Because of the dark blood, and cool weather, I waited until morning. Also, I could get my wife to help out in the morning of 11-09-2014.

Nice doe for the freezer. ... Turns out the arrowhead lodged in the off leg bone without puncturing the skin, and snapped off there. So, we didn't trail lung blood, even though she was a lung shot deer.

Come on Ron, we need an update!!!!!!!

Good luck Ron!

Well......the news is not good. 8 hours of rain last night did not help matters at all. Went with a friend for an extra set of eyes. Spent the better part of the morning picking up sign at the property line and moving forward. My worst fears were that it was a muscle or tissue hit above the lungs and now I think it was. Did a grid search for a 1/4 of a mile in the direction she had to go and came up with nothing. The field I thought she crossed had no tracks or blood anywhere....it's snow covered. So it looks like I may get to hunt her next year. Thanks for the positive thoughts and support.........

hickstick · « **Reply #654 on:** December 17, 2014, 04:56:00 PM »

thats too bad ron. from your unfolding description it sounded like a muscle hit but didn' want to throw any negative waves your way.

fellas....Its looking like I might get an opportunity to hunt out in western ny next year, if all goes well. this will be through a friend of a friend so I'll be limited on access, but it will be fun I think.

I was just perusing the dec.NY.gov laws. I can't believe you still have to have your license pinned to your back? most states did away with that with the advent of online licensing....

anyway....anxiously awaiting 2015

Bodaru that's nice doe !

Ron I was pulling for you sorry it didn't work out. They are tough critters and hopefully she's ok.

Last night walking out there were three small does in the clover. After sitting until sunset I was walking out and a big doe kinda stumbled/fell across the lane, by the time I pulled an arrow out she was in the pines. Then a nice buck came flying out of the pines ! I didn't think the doe could go far so i crawled around in the dark with a flashlight and couldn't find her. No blood but she was in bad shape not sure what happend to her.

Now the wait for next year starts ....

Sorry to hear that Ron , I was pullin for you .

Bob , congrats on your deer

Stone Knife · « **Reply #657 on:** December 17, 2014, 05:50:00 PM »

That stinks Ron but it happens to most everyone sooner or later. Congratulations Bob, nice deer

Bobaru · « **Reply #658 on:** December 17, 2014, 07:01:00 PM »

Ron, I'm with Jim N.: That stinks. I hate the feeling. Hope the deer is okay... They heal up well.

My parting picture for the season:

Saw a monster buck a few days back, my last day out. That'll keep me excited for next year.

Thanks for the comments. And, Bob Brown, thanks for talking me into joining the NYS Bowhunters. It was thru them that I got to Africa this year... 2014 has been my best year ever.

glenbo · « **Reply #659 on:** December 17, 2014, 07:46:00 PM »

I am sorry things did not work out as planned Ron. I do not know one bow hunter who hasn't been where you are now. We try our best, take responsibe shots in our ethical shot distances, and things still do not always go as planned Forge ahead Ron , it will happen.
Bobaru, congratulations on a fine deer.
For me, it is time for some small game hunting and stump shooting. Happy Holidays to all.
