Cache River Deer Recovery

What do you do for a tracking dog after he’s had a bad day? You let him take the night off to watch TV with dad! Lol

Muzzleloader and straight wall cartridge season opens in the morning and ole Lanky is ready to track if you need us! Here are a few tips that might help:
1. If your deer drops immediately, it could be “spine shock” watch him close and get ready to put another in him.
2. If you find bone fragments at the hit sight, back out and text me quick, this one will probably need ran down.
3. If you find gut matter or dark red blood, back out and text me. We will give this one a while.
4. Avoid grid searching. You step in the scent and track it everywhere and it’s harder for the dog to sort through it.
5. If you find where it bedded after the shot but it’s no longer there, back out and text me.
6. If there is a chance the deer might have got over on a neighbor’s property, make sure you get permission before we get there. We will not trespass.
7. Be patient! We will be extremely busy tracking all weekend but we will get there as soon as we can.

I will track in the following areas:
1. Woodruff Co
2. Prairie Co.
3. White Co east of Hwy 167 except those suburbs around Beebe. Just too much risk of my dog crossing a highway or getting on a neighboring property or in someone’s yard.
4. NW Monroe Co
5. North Arkansas Co
6. NE Lonoke Co

I’m also teamed up with Heath Devazier and Brent Taylor, they cover everything east of me and I can help you get in touch with them if needed.

Lanky started off the season strong with a couple of great tracks! The first was 18 hours old and the second was 22 hours old on a stud of a deer!

Don’t let this happen to your buck! Let’s recover it after the shot, not stumble on it months later after the squirrels have chewed on it.

This season is winding down, but we are still available to help you recover your deer. I do not charge a fee, but I do accept tips and donations.

Please share my page with anyone you know that deer hunts in the Arkansas counties or on the WMA’s that we cover.

These WMA’s include Hurricane Lake WMA, Black Swamp, Wattensaw, Dagmar and the majority of Cache River NWR.

Coverage area lays from Hwy 67 (Bald K**b) on the west to Hwy 49 (Fair oaks/Brinkley)on the east and from just north of Hwy 64 (Augusta/McCroy) to the north and Hwy 165 (Humnoke/Stuttgart) to the south.
