Finally another track last night! And Rex got to chew which is always a plus! The hunter had called stating he had shot a doe the night previous and bumped her and lost blood at about 100 yards.
I didn’t really ask any details because at this point i would of tracked a deer shot in the tail.. Long story short after we got there I saw the arrow and knew immediately it was a gut hit deer and odds were in our favor on a recovery happening. She ended up going about 300 yards. About 150 yards after the jump I noticed we were in a scent pool just by Rex’s behavior. I’ll post video in comments. When he acts like this there is typically 1 of 2 things going on. The deer is dead close, or the deer had bedded in a small area numerous times causing there to be scent everywhere. She ended up being about 60 yards away from where I took the video!
Really glad to be able to get out again! Hoping for one more get to finish out the year but I’m not holding my breath!
