Update: went out 4 hours after the shot, got on good blood, some lung matter and bright, frothy, mucusy blood, then I crept to within 30 yds of where he apparently bedded and he got up and trotted away. He didn’t book it, and he gushed some more goopy red blood as he went, so at 180 yds of tracking I backed out and put in an SOS with my neighbor. Going to give him until about 9pm then hit the trail again, hoping he is dead as we speak. He’s hurt…bad. But my arrow seems to still be in him and my attitude is staying positive. He is for sure going to die, I just want to find him when he does.
Please take pictures of entry and exit, and provide shot distance and elevation to your set. It would mean a lot for guys learning where to aim.
He’s gonna die. You got him.
