    #2 - If you follow "good blood" for 150 yds and do not have a dead deer at that point back out and give it more time (4 hours or so). Most of the time we get on tracks where people have tracked 500 yds becasue they had good blood and though the deer was going to be dead for sure. Typically they are just pushing the deer and once they stop the deer will bed down just ahead (if really hurt).
    #3 - If you go back and lose blood do half circles out 20-30 yds looking for blood.
    #4 - If you plan to use a dog back out and call for one.
    #5 - If you do not plan to use a dog start your grid search.
    #6 - DO NOT grid search and then call for dog as last ditch effort.
    Thank you, good stuff to know.

    Very nice buck bro, I tend to agree on largest part of the chest center point, some times the fancy neck shots and such tend to be off a bit and it doesn’t always end well .
