I have one of your prints on my wall and look at it often. You have taught me a lot about shot placement just by studying your artwork. Thank you! These videos are excellent and very informative.
I like your videos. One thing to consider too is that deer like to take the path of least resistance, especially when wounded. I just had one that I took a steep quartering away shot on, and there was no pass through. I knew I hit lungs, but the blood trail was sparse. I lost the trail, and was debating on coming back in the morning when I decided to check a nearby trailhead leading to the neighbors property. Found blood again and was able to recover the deer
I am not good at tracking blood ( or finding sheds). To my good fortune I found a great tracker with a dog. I don’t pursue at all if I have any questions about the hit or obvious liver blood or stomach/gut material. If I don’t find a carpet of blood or a dead deer within a hundred or so yards I immediately go get the tracker. Dog is truly amazing. He doesn’t lose many I can tell you that…
100%. Tracking dogs can do amazing things. Most trackers I've talked to say they'd prefer you back out entirely and call them first on a marginal hit, rather than walk the woods for 10 hours looking by yourself and then call
just a contribution, lots of times a hit deer will run with the tail down. sure sign you got them somewhere and usually not a good shot. here in the northeast we have patches of moss and when wet there are these red spots that look like blood. when im having trouble in an area like this and wiping my hand across the moss is not telling me anything i use a spray bottle with peroxide in it. i have found my deer while crawling on my knees and spraying back and forth looking for the white bubbles. this will work for dry blood at times as well.

Fairly new hunter here, these videos are great. You're really good at explaining this and the art is super helpful. Thank you!
Appreciate that! I'm not an expert by any means, but I do like to be able to use my art to explain the basic concepts and help people in the woods 👍
