    Everything sounds good Joe! If you saw lots of blood, I bet that deer is dead within 100 yards! Good luck on the track, this deer is yours!

    Fred what are you doing! You can't be missing deer this time of the year! Sorry buddy I know how it feels, it happened to me last week. Plenty of time for redemption!

    Best of luck to you Joe. I can't think of a more deserving hunter. You definitely put the time in! Pulling for you!

    The one I missed had no idea what happened, just walked off

    That is incredible! I am fascinated with raptors, I love watching them from the stand and think they are by far the coolest animals on the planet. I usually have a few red tails that keep me company while hunting, but have never seen a Golden Eagle before, let alone have it dive on anything! Very cool!

    I get to say it, WAY TO GO JOE!!! Sounds like a dead deer to me, there are alot of large blood vessels in the ham, so even if you knicked/missed the femoral artery, it is still probably lethal. with immediate "blood gushing" I am willing to bet he made it under 100 yards :)
