Looked at the GPS and we were 2.8 miles from where we started. No recovery, but a buck was shot the next weekend on the same club w/ a bullet wound to the front of the chest, shaped like a half-moon. No proof it was the same deer, but I can only assume that was it and the hunter said the rack looked the same. So almost 20 hours later he was still trailing a deer that had been wounded - he earned a biscuit that day!

Dayum! That's impressive!
