I know first hand the feeling of shooting an animal and having it run away never to find it again and that particular feeling will be etched in my brain forever. With the all responses from fellow members to a first time bow hunter, and the different views on how the animal was hit, the experience for IGOJUONE turned out to be a positive experience rather than just a total downer. This turned out to be a great thread, thanks everybody for the input............................................. ..................

I've just added you to my contact list, Rod! Could have used your assistance a couple of weeks ago.
Nice work!

Holy *uck, who many are going to ask the same question without reading the thread first.
Anyways for those that would like to see him, take a look, just don't look him in the eyes. After a few days in my backyard the birds might have pecked him over a little.
Well the battery is recharged and the meat is at the butcher but here is a picture of what remains.
My first big game animal with my bow, an APA King Cobra.

Re: Blood Trail help needed
Just found this thread, first congrats on your bow kill, toughest challenge in the hunting fraternity. Cudos to Hotload, what a great unselfish HBC member and hunter. Enjoyed reading all the "i think this is what happened" comments and then having the proof in the pudding when you found your buck!
Re: Blood Trail help needed
Awesome! Congrats on such a nice buck. It's admirable how you stuck with it, and found your kill.
