November 3 am 41 degrees SW wind 5-10 Cloudy Pretty quiet sit. Had a lonely doe fawn meandering around the woods for most of the morning. Camera showed three decent bucks in the area so it's easy assumed that mom is getting poked. Had a small buck come by about 830 and that would be it for the am. November 3 pm 44 degrees W wind 5-10 Party cloudy Hunted the same property this afternoon with a similar outcome. One small doe at sunset made her way through. Bumped a buck and doe walking out. Couldn't see the rack but it wasn't a 1.5 year old. All in all, very quiet on this property today. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Update... Went in late this morning for a final search. Bumped the buck about 50-60 yards from where I lost blood yesterday morning. Crazy to think he's been there since late Friday night but I'm sure I found him in his bedroom. He seemed to have a slight limp but managed get up and trot off. My guess is one lung and only one lung. All the evidence points to just that. I need to get my head screwed on straight and I'll be back at it tomorrow morning. This has been killing me for almost two damn days. I guess I feel better knowing he is still alive versus not finding him but still... Thanks for the support guys!

So I am to the point I have no idea what to do. Zero response from tracking services. Blind search tomorrow. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Wish I had good news but I dont. Yet. Went in and got on a decent blood trail. Of course it is the thickest part of the property and trail dried up. I really didnt want to push on too far without blood. I backed out and called deer search ny. Waiting to here back.

Just woke up! LOL! Cant fall back to sleep. Got a solid 4 hours in though.

November 1 pm 42 degrees Insane west winds becoming West wind 5-15 Partly cloudy Well like I said I had no plans on hunting today and working late but that weather forecast go to me. Hunt the weather! Those crazy winds looked to be calming down for a pm sit so I snuck out early and was in the stand about 415ish. About 430 or so I had a doe sneak behind the stand. She was followed closely by a stud of a buck. 20 yards broadside on my left side but no chance of getting a shot off. Just too thick in there so I watch him disappear. Trailing close behind them was a 1.5 year old. I jumped on the grunt tube thinking maybe we had a big breeding party but didn't notice any others. After that I am jumpy. I'm watching my left side and over my left shoulder closely. About 5, I notice a deer walking out into the field. 40 yards or so. Shooter. He turns and walks right to me. He actually let me grab the bow, stand up, and turn. I let an arrow fly once he is quartering away. I see the arrow hit and then go flying. I wacked him and he broke it off. He ran off about fifty yards. He stopped and stood in front of my camera. He let the camera get some nice shots. He very slowly walked out into the middle of the field and slowly walked almost back to where he came out. Giant, slow circle. He then turned and trotted down the field about 75 yards and disappeared into the woods. All the evidence makes me feel good about the shot. Looking forward to a sleepless night.

update... Just got home. Walked the blood trail. Heavy, heavy blood without an exit hole. At least one lung because it was all over the field. Found him. Right where I last saw him go into the woods and still alive. Barely. Walked up on him and he very slowly got up and walked into the thickest part of the neighbors property. Hes toasted. My best guess is liver and one lung. My plan is to go there in the morning. I probably should have just waited until morning and he would have been dead right where i last saw him. Im at the mercy of coyotes now.

Found the arrow. Good blood. Playing the waiting game. Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

My head is on a damn swivel. I'm jumpy as hell now!!! Sent from my moto z4 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Well I had zero intention of hunting today. But with the updated forecast and the wind slowly dying down I changed my plans quickly. Got into the stand a little after four. Five minutes in I noticed a doe followed by a big mature buck followed by a young buck a few minutes later. Twenty yards and no shot. Just too thick to responsibly throw an arrow that way.
