The decisions you make immediately after the shot can greatly affect the chances of recovering your deer.
• Mark where the deer was standing and where you last saw it.
• Note the deer’s reaction and direction of travel.
• Record the time of the shot.
• Avoid walking ahead, grid searching or disturbing the trail.
• Back out quietly and call before taking up the track.
