So, right after i posted this thread, i found a bed with a tiny bit of blood in it. This was 200 yards past the last known drop. Just then i see the buck bolting away 100 yards below me. (No shot)
i follow the bucks tracks for a couple hundred more yards ( no blood) and hes moving fine?
hunted the area for a couple hours, had given up hope several times now.....on the way back i hear a couple ravens cackling near the last blood bed i found.
Went to investigate, saw the yote, shot him, walked up and found the buck 10 yards away!
Looks like a lynx chewed about 10 lbs off the ass but otherwise all good!

So the buck you seen running that seemed fine was a different buck, and the original buck was dead back by the last bed, or he made a loop and then died by the bed, don't quit get what your saying.

[Stone Sheep Steve]

Third nice buck to come across my phone today. The big guys are out and about during daylight hours.

[Glenny]

Wow glad you recovered him. That would have been a tough loss to swallow. Great buck. Tracking dog looks exhausted :lol:

[Rackmastr]

Great stuff!!! Awesome buck.

Headed out tomorrow with the hopes of finding some rutting activity!

[rocksteady]

[Spy]

No, turns out i saw another buck take off, he was very close to the dead buck when i first saw him, but he took me way off on a wild goose... Well buck chase. It was on my hike back to the truck that a few ravens gave me the location. The buck had been dead a while and something ate a hind qyuarter already. There was large cat tracks and yote tracks there.

[mark]

The yote i shot seemed to be just arriving?

[Brambles]

Sweet.....
