    It can make you second guess yourself on the shot but in the long run it's a good decision to back out.
    Good Luck!

    Looks like muscle...maybe forward or low. Blood was real good for the first 100 yards but dwendling across the beans.

    that's by design to make you go out and buy a new one. Widely reported for about 2 minutes before the news went back to TRUMPTRUMPTRUMP

    My iPhone 5 was like that, but my 6s and 7 have been awesome for battery life even in the cold. My Samsung 6 has always been a cold weather wimp and now at 4 years old won't last more than 2-3 hours in temps below 45* unless I put it on airplane.

    I carry and use both all day every day; and while I prefer the Samsung's interface, especially for texting and media; the 6 and up iPhones are tanks by comparison, much longer battery life, and always have a better signal even thought both are Verizon. I would never buy an iPhone, but I am glad I am given them by my employer.

    back to the Hunt- good luck Kyle

    I have the 5s and have the exact same problem with mine. I bought a portable charger for $10 @ walmart and now keep it in my hunting bag. When it dies I plug it up and put it in my pocket and it normally comes back on after a few minutes.

    That is what I have. Does the same thing with every update. It has convinced me not to update until it completely dies. I am not the type of person who wants the latest and greatest with phones.

    That is the kind of business strategy that gets me to change brands, not stay loyal to crap that does not hold up over time.

    Found where she exited the field. This was 400 yards from where I shot her last night. Found nothing after that..I’m thinking I got her in the brisket somewhere...lesson learned. I probably shouldn’t of shot in the light that I had. When I first picked up track I thought for sure she would be within 100 yards. Sorry no pics. Didn’t wanna have my phone die again Incase I needed help. My buddy bailed on me within an hour. Dad joined up and we tracked on our hands and knees for a solid 100 yards in the field. Exhausted all options and work three doubles starting today at five. The last hour was hoping to get lucky but to be honest I think she’s still kicking. This is only the second deer I’ve never found so to say I’m feeling low is an understatement.
