    Good luck on the recoveries guys.
    You should wait also, Tony. Like others have said, only chance is him losing a LOT of blood.

    I'd go home and have a good brunch, then head out early afternoon like Henson said.

    well not to contradict myself or to make matters worse or to be ""THAT GUY"", aka devils advocate,

    If its not fatal and he lays down and it clots, he will live. if he gets pushed, the wound won't heal and he might bleed out?

    again sorry, just thinking out loud

    Headed out now to help a buddy track a deer he shot yesterday at 4 PM. Sounds like a liver hit so he backed out and we're going out now to look. Double drop tine buck

    Without snow it's a damn hard track. Snow you probably seen drops here and there that would have been missed without it.

    I have heard of guys trying "push" a wounded deer to induce heavier bleeding. If you have a decent size are you hunt you might try it. Maybe try to push him once then back out.

    You're exactly right. It wasn't the easiest track job. Snow was the reason I found it. That's why I made sure to mention that. Didn't want to make it sound like it was easy. I even had to follow tracks. Probably shouldn't have mentioned finding this one.

    I go home and watch every football game on tv right now and maybe start in the morning. We tracked a doe last year 3 miles after she was bumped the first time. Finally found her but it wasn't fun

    If you know he has gone away from where you hit him, you could snoop around to see how much blood there is. If those 3" were still in him as he ran off they're tearing things up inside.
