    Took a while yesterday but we found him. I hit him farther forward than I thought. I saw several places where he laid down and got up. The meat is fine! I don't think he had been dead long when we finally made it to him. I pulled my card from my trailcam and saw a coyote cruising later Thursday night after I shot him. Maybe that is why he was up and down so much. He made a HUGE Circle almost back to the property I hunt. Thanks for all the support guys!
