    That’s where I stopped. I’m sure there’s more. It was like that for 20 yards but consistent fairly easy to follow from impact. Just extremely nervous about lack of penetration.

    Looks like good blood, I’ve had rages bounce off the opposite shoulder and come back out. It looked like poor penetration but both times it was a dead buck

    Just had 4 does come running through. Then within about a minute they went running back the direction they came from. Weird.

    I’ve under estimated how chilly it would be, I need another layer. I’m giving it another 30-45min and calling it. I’ve seen 3, doe/fawn that I thought was two little button bucks, damn low light. Turns out it was a momma kicking her fawn off her. Another doe was coming and went behind a tree and magically disappeared. These wet leaves are not helping me at all.
