    That is not a lot of blood ... looks like muscle blood

    You at the end of the thread or back a page or two?

    That last pic is most certainly lung blood.

    The bottom half, you are referring to?

    If so, I stand by my previous statement... without being there, if that is not the leaf that is paper thin with holes, then I agree it is lung blood

    Well, no dice tonight. Tracked blood about 400 yrs, but never could pick the trail back up. Searched a pretty wide grid out, not quite sure what to think. I hate losing deer.

    Also, it sucks being colorblind. Good think my wife seems to be part blood hound, man she did a great job following blood sign.

    Tired, walked a lot of ground today. Time for a good glass of whiskey.

    Good buddy of mine hit a 200"+ and lost blood the other day... and I know that he knows big deer, as last year he shot a 170's buck. Very depressing weekend.

    congrats little chief!

    entro, get out there tomorrow and grid it off with toilet paper so you don't miss anything. you might be walking all around him and just don't see him.

    That’s where my grandfather is buried. Very heroic grounds.

    Best of luck to those of you who are fortunate enough to be out there after them this morning.

    I'm back at my desk at work and it's a bit depressing to look up and see walls instead of trees.
