    Good Luck Tom. That's the worst feeling in the world....waiting and not knowing. Keep us posted.

    If you didn't get a full pass through, blood might be sparse. Sounds like a good ethical kill shot. You will find him! Let us know as soon as you do!

    Man, sounds like we are excited as you are. Might be some overhead buzzard activity by now.

    Thanks for the good lucks every one. We looked for over 5 hours this morning. We went through hay fields, crp, cattails, wheat stuble, we even walked a 20 acre corn field. We found some blood where he stopped the first time but nothing after. I can not say how bad I feel, I know that buck is dead but we just could not find him. I am sure at some point I will post the footage.

    Do you think the dynamics of shooting while being filmed affected your shot?

    Can you get a blood hound to help track?

    ^^ This.^^ Go to your local hunting shop, look on the bulletin board. Ask around. See if anyone has a dog. It would be worth the money if they charge you IMO.

    yeah, sorry to hear that. Just do everything you can do to find it, a dog sounds great. hope an anti-hunter doesn't find the carcass first. Good luck!
