    Public land spot this morning. We've been chasing a big 12 for 3 years here. Came close a couple of times. Hope he's still around

    Don't feel like going home or hitting public land, nice cool day might as well enjoy it in the woods. Very well could be my last sit until first weekend of November.

    Ok went back out 3 hours after the shot. Tracked the blood for a good ways prob 200 yards. Blood got really light then non existent. Then all of a sudden hear something and look up and jumped her. :( really not happy with myself right now. I thought 3 hours was gonna be good but apparently not. So I marked where she jumped from and and enlisting the assistance of my father and a couple friends.. :( super bummed right now guys, maybe the shot was worse than I originally thought. Because I was sure 3 hours would've done it. :( :( :'(
