FastRak Whitetail Recovery

01/12/2025

I know I know Bears aren’t the most expensive flagship bows but I stay slaying bucks w my Bear bows. So I bought another one. I literally couldn’t pass it up. New in the box. I got the Whitetail Legend Pro bow, sight, and carbon stabilizer for $400 delivered to my door from a bow shop in Texas that closed down.

Another FastRak hoodie going out Tmro. We love the support!! I remember when we first started tracking some clown called me a tshirt salesman with a puppy on a string. Now look, we find more deer than him, my dog would smoke his best dog, and I’m still selling shirts 😏🥶😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨 Life. Is. Good.

🤣 What in the world. “Hunting rips families apart”. No way! The best families hunt together!

Your family wouldn’t be too merry if your hunting “trophy” were 💔

Hunting doesn’t just kill animals—it rips families apart, & guarantees you a permanent spot on the 🪨

Take me back to October 😩 Tracking season just isn’t long enough for me. If I had it my way we would run these Pennsylvania hills 12 months a year.

I’ve been working a lil bit at a time every chance I get to rebuild the antler of my Pa archery buck this year. I started off by building a wire frame from soldering wire and building with antler epoxy a lil bit at a time from there. It’s not perfect and it’s lopsided but that was my goal, I’ve hung pictures of him from 3 different angles in front of me while I work on it and my goal wasnt perfection, it was to get it as close to his actual antler as possible. I’m by no means any type of taxidermist or artist but I will be proud when it’s finished. Any animal taken by my hands will be displayed and honored at its best if I can help it. 🙏

“ATTAAA BOYY REDDD‼️” Our 70th career recovery! This was literally the most rewarding recovery we’ve had yet. This deer was shot 6 days ago, we originally tracked this buck last Sunday and jumped him alive but in very bad shape. We had to wait for the game warden to come out to accompany us incase we got close enough to dispatch the deer. He stayed just far enough in front of us that we couldn’t get a clean ethical shot. We KNEW that this deer would eventually die from that shot. The hunter and his father stayed persistent and searched all week for the deer with no luck. Finally a day or so ago they seen him with binoculars from far away and he was barely walking. They didn’t have a gun so they went to the house to get one, by the time they made it back with the gun he had left the area. They searched around for awhile but no trace. They called me last night and asked if I would make one last effort before the season ends. I knew what it meant to them, it was bothering me all week as well so i agreed to meet them there at 7:00am today. I had no idea how or if Red would pick up on a 135 hour old trail but right away I could tell he was tracking and not just searching. It took us almost 1.5 hours but Red took us a long ways and eventually was standing on top of this beautiful buck. It was an incredible ending to a very long chain of events. Congratulations to this young Hunter and I commend these guys for being persistent and not letting this deer go to waste. God was on our side in this one, this deer was still warm when we found him.

I love this so much. God bless the people in charge and involved in making this happen. You have two types of sportsman in the hunting world, these amazing individuals doing great things then you have the other guys out here on Facebook bashing everything another hunter does different than them. Make sure you’re on the right side of it. Someday I would love to put together something similar around home.

All prepped and ready for the off-season training. Big thanks to great friends for making sure I have enough hooves and deer blood! 🩸 PS anyone we recovered a deer for that saved the hooves for us just shoot me a message and I’ll get them! I did know who had them but I’ve definitely forgotten in the midst of working and tracking. Much appreciated!

Man this dog worked so hard today. So close. We tracked hard for awhile with no blood and eventually jumped the deer we were tracking and could see he was having a pretty hard time walking. Being it’s Sunday we all wanted to follow the laws so we stopped and called the game commission to get permission to dispatch the deer outside of legal hunting times. Eventually the local game warden showed up to accompany us while we did what we needed to do. I must say, there was added pressure with all eyes on us to make sure we did everything right. I’m pretty sure the warden was impressed with Reds skills and our professionalism. Red got back on the trail and took us another 100-150 yards and we see the deer get up and stay just far enough ahead that an ethical shot was not possible in the area where we were, especially for a youth hunter. After another break we proceeded a little further and seen that the deer was now bleeding pretty good. We decided to leave and let the hunter return Tmro and hopefully 🤞 that new blood will take him to a dead deer. This is one of those cases that makes me wish Sunday hunting was legal all season in Pennsylvania. Had the hunter had a weapon the first time we jumped him he would’ve had a clean easy 50 yard shot. Unfortunately we don’t make the rules, just follow them.

I wish I could talk to this old fella thru my camera. This is the third time I’ve seen the deer walk through not long after he did. I just want to tell him to sit down and wait. 🤣

Having that surgery and being forced to chill the last couple of days at least gave me the chance to start working on cleaning my skull from this years buck. I’ve decided since I have so many pictures of him with both sides going to use the pics and attempt to reconstruct his right side. I’ve done it before
And it turned out nice, just wasn’t nearly as extensive. His right side was so much bigger than his left. It’ll look so good on that wall plaque.
