    Great work man! Praise God for the great hunt and awesome tracking job. I've never had one go near that far after being shot. Awesome story.

    I think the meat will still be alright if you trim it right.. Great job finding him. Most threads like this don't end good!

    That's awesome that you recovered it. I don't think the meat is bad though. At least try to salvage the tenderloins.

    As promised.... Not the nice pics out in the field though, had to get him in the truck and out of there seeing as we had no idea whose property it was.
