You and your catchy thread titles...I never realized there was a dead deer story here.

Great lesson in persistence and trusting what you see.

Man, that is an awesome buck!

Congrats!

Blood trails are what they are. Some are profuse, and some really suck. The following pics are of the entrance and exit holes on a doe I shot a couple years ago. I found 5 drops of blood in a 10' area about 15yds from the shot, and not one drop more anywhere. She only went about 40yds, and I found her doing a grid search. I don't understand why they don't bleed out sometimes, but it sure is cause for stress!!!

One never knows the what till the critter is found... the WHY may never be answered.  

Way to persevere!  Nice recovery and great reward for the effort!

Great buck. Good recovery. I use a glove because a tab just don't feel right to my anchor. Maybe if I used one more I could get used to it but sticking to my glove.

Excellent work, and a great buck! Congratulations!

I was helping teach an IBEP class this fall, they let me do the bloodtrail portion. We laid out a trail with glycerin and food coloring,  with a deer hide at the end. The first thing we talked about was the compass reading....some of the attendees chuckled when I showed them I carried 3 compasses. ..1 around my neck, one in my pocket,  and one in my tracking bag.

Again. ...great job! !
