    I hit the buck low had a post a few weeks back. Searched high and low. My uncles who farm this land found him a mile from my blind. I sure with I could have found him. Had good blood and even lung blood. Hate for him to have suffered.

    That is a bummer for sure... Wish I could have found any part of a buck that I shot last season.

    I had the same struggle this year. Single-lunged a buck. I found him two days later only recovered the head. It sucks.

    128.5 score. 3 1/2 year old

    Even without the score I’m just glad to close the chapter on this buck.
