We have tracked a lot of live deer this season but we love it when our hunters get another chance at their buck. We tracked this buck a long way and and jumped it, with very little blood in the bed. We knew he would make it to be hunted again. This just goes to show how tuff bucks can be.

Me and cash tracked this doe a few weeks ago she was shot with a bow. We tracked her about 750 yards with spotty blood and he lost interest in the track and I called it. The hunter got her on camera a few days ago. The nose always knows!!!

We got a call a couple days ago from a local hunter that had used us years ago. He had shot a buck but his muzzleloader delayed when he fired and he wasn't sure where he hit him. The buck took off down the hill and out of sight but he found some blood, so he knew the buck was hit. He heard some thrashing in the distance about 20 minutes after the shot so he was pretty sure the deer was down. He called to see if we was available if needed. I told him it sounded like a good track for my young dog Copper that I have been training. He is Josie and Cashs son. I told him if I needed to I could run back home and get Cash if Copper had any problems. We give the buck 2 hrs to expire. We arrived at the shot sight and i put Copper on the first blood and he locked on and started working down a huge hill. His nose to the ground, he found a little more blood. He was gaining more confidence the further he went. He continued working down the hill about 100 yards with hit and miss blood. I looked ahead about 40 yards and seen the buck, so i got out my phone, I wanted to capture this moment. He continued working and went right to him. Super proud of his first real track and first time seeing a real dead deer. He has been doing great on mock tracks all summer and it looks like it going to pay off. We got high hopes for him. When in doubt back out and give us a shout. Congrats to the hunter on a stud buck and thanks for trusting us to recover your trophy buck. God bless and happy hunting.

We got the call November 5th from a hunter that had shot his first buck with a bow but the buck stepped forward and the time of the shot and he hit him mid body liver and guts. The arrow was covered in gut matter. His friend that had used us before told him to call me and see what he should do next. I knew the deer needed overnight to expire even though we had lots of rain coming. I assured the hunter the rain wasn't a problem but if we didn't give him enough time to expire he could get jumped and go for miles. So we agreed to come out the next morning. We arrived the next morning after over 2 in of rain. I started cash at the shot sight and he quickly locked on to the track and took off working to the left about 30 yards. He turned down a old grown up logging rd and he started picking up speed. He was worked down the old road about 80 yards and ol cash took a hard right turn into the woods. He went about 30 yards to a old pond and there he layed, on the edge of the pond. Congrats to the hunter on his first bow buck and thanks for trusting us to recover your buck. When in doubt back out and give us a shout and we will give it our all to recover your buck or doe. The hunter done everything right by backing out if he had gone after him to soon the outcome could have been way different. Most of the time a gut shot deer will lay down pretty quick if left alone and not pushed to soon. God bless America and happy hunting everyone.

Please stop it's not a fatal shot most of the time.

We got a call a few evenings ago from the hunter he had shot his target buck. The deer stepped forward at the time of the shot and he hit back in the guts with a pass through shot. The arrow had blood and gut matter on it. He looked at the arrow layed it back down in the same spot and went home. He knew the buck needed overnight to expire. He gave us a call that night to see if we were available the next morning if he needed us and we agreed to come out if needed. Well little did we know a short hard rain was going to come through the area about 4 that morning and wash away all the blood and gut matter. He looked for a few minutes and backed out and gave us a shout. We arrived shortly after and cash locked on at the shot sight and started working through the timber, nose to the ground and tail in the air. He was picking up speed, and when we popped over a high spot in the woods, cash took off dragging me about 40 yards toward a couple down trees. There the buck layed between the trees, just over 100 yards from the shot sight. No blood to be seen the entire way after the rain. Congrats to the hunter on a stud buck and good job by backing out and giving him time to expire. Thanks for trusting us to recover your trophy buck. When in doubt back out and give us a shout and we will give it our all to recover your trophy buck or doe. Yall remember with any less than perfect shot give em plenty of time to expire, a dead deer don't go anywhere but a jumped deer can go for miles before he feels comfortable enough to lay back down. Happy hunting and God bless America.

Well cash took another one almost a mile before he jumped it, 17 hrs after the shot, very little blood in the bed. I believe it was a in and out brisket shot or possibly high neck shot lots of fat on the bolt and very little blood to be seen past the hunters last blood. That's part of it unfortunately. They are not all dead deer and cash wasn't happy 😕 but he done a great job 👍 🦌🦌

We got a call one evening last week from the hunter in the bluegrass state. He was hunting from a ground blind and the buck leaned forward, right as he shot. He was pretty sure he got a liver- gut shot. He found dark blood not far from the shot sight and nothing after that. He backed out and gave us a shout. We agreed to give the buck over night to expire because a dead deer don't go anywhere but a jumped deer can go a long way before he feels comfortable enough to lay back down. We arrived the next morning at the shot sight and cash went straight to work quickly finding the blood the hunter found. He made a few circles in the area and took off through the woods about 80 yards and turned into super thick undergrowth with no blood to be found. He continued working another 150 yards or so and he found a little dark blood on a low limb. He was nose to the ground and focused through the thick undergrowth and found a little more blood on a log. He continued working another 125 yards or so and found a light bed with a little blood in it. He took off again gaining speed and confidence working through the thick undergrowth another 100 yards or so and found more blood and a small piece of tissue. We stopped for a water break and he took back off, nose locked to the ground. He went another 60 or 70 yards, when the wind started blowing right in our face. He started pulling like a freight train and his nose kept going from the ground to the air. At this point I'm at a steady jog behind him for a good 80 yards through the woods. We got to a area with 2 big trees layed down on top of each other. Cash made his way toward the middle of the tree pile and there he layed. Coyotes had got to him before we did unfortunately. Congrats to the hunter on a stud buck and thanks for trusting us to recover your trophy buck. When in doubt back out and give us a shout and we will give it our all to recover your trophy buck or doe. Happy hunting and God bless America 🙏🇺🇸

We got the call the other afternoon about a young man's buck that was shot the previous evening. He wasn't exactly sure about shot placement so they gave the deer couple hrs to expire. He was able to track a long way, with on and off blood, but they ended up jumping the buck. He backed out for the night. The next day his dad had to work so they returned the next afternoon.They didn't have any luck finding anymore blood so they backed out and gave us a shout and we arrived around 25 hrs after the shot. I put cash on the bed they had jumped him from. He worked around the area for a few minutes, made a few circles, picked the track out and took off. He was going through the overgrown area for about 40 yards before he crossed a dead end road. He then went into a big crp field. He took off working quickly through the overgrown field for about 450 yards. The field turned into a huge cedar thicket with thick undergrowth between all the trees but still no blood to be seen. Cash continued working through the thicket another 350 yards and he found a little blood. He was working in and out of of the thick undergrowth another 375 yards and found a little more blood. He continued on, working through a super thick area and I heard a deer take off in front of us crashing through everything in his way. Cash took off pulling me like a freight train. After about 30 yards, I started seeing blood spray all over the ground and the trees. Cash was pulling me like he's never done before. We are almost at a run right behind this buck, twisting and turning through this huge thicket. We had went several hundred yards and I'm still seeing blood spray. Then cash found a little tree that had been run over and had blood all over it. He started making a big loop and headed back kind of toward the dead end he crossed in the beginning. He was still losing lots of blood so we continued working through the thicket several hundred yards finding good blood the entire way. We got about 350 yards from the road and cash cut between 2 big cedar trees. They had thick branches all the way to the ground, grown up in an ol fence row. Cash was pulling hard but when i got to the fence row, I got stuck in the old barbwire. While I was trying to get untangled, I felt my lead get slack and he quit pulling. I quickly stopped what I was doing and moved the branches so I could see Cash. He was standing over the buck chewing on it. He wasn't completely expired yet so I pulled cash off him till he expired. We covered a little over a mile all together on this one and cash was on him every step of the way. Congrats to the hunter on a stud buck and thanks for trusting us to recover your trophy buck. Yall stay blessed and happy hunting 🙏

We got the call several days ago from a hunter, who had a buck step forward when he shot. He knew he had hit back in liver and guts. The buck walked out of the field and into the woods, leaving no blood at the shot sight. The hunter picked his arrow up seen the gut matter and didn't look any further. He called me and I told him to leave him overnight to give him plenty of time to expire and go look in the morning. He went back the next morning and looked around for a few minutes and only found 1 drop of blood. So he backed out and gave us a call. We arrived 17 hrs after the shot and ol cash locked on at the shot sight. He worked straight to the the wood line, crossed a half broken down fence, into a thicket, then into a strip of woods. He turned on to an old logging rd that was grown up super thick. He continued working up the left side of the logging for about 140 yards with no blood. All of a sudden the made a hard right turn to the other side of the logging rd and started dragging me back down the road about 30 yards. He took a left off the road and bam there he layed. There was no blood to be seen the entire track.
Time is always your best friend in this situation. Dead deer don't go anywhere but a jumped and pushed deer can go for miles before he feels comfortable enough to lay back down. Congrats to the hunter on a stud buck and thanks for trusting us to recover your trophy. When in doubt back out and give us a shout. Advice is completely free. If you have any doubts about your shot give us a call and let us share our experience to give you, your best options to get your trophy buck or doe on you tailgate. Good luck this season everyone and God bless America.

We got a call the other day from a previous client in the bluegrass state. He had shot his target buck right before dark, got a pass through shot but wasn't sure exactly about shot placement. After giving him a few hrs to expire, he started tracking him and after a short distance he lost blood. It began to rain a little bit and he knew the best thing to do was to back out and give us a call after the blood disappeared. We agreed to meet the next morning. We started at the shot sight and cash made quick work to the hunters last blood. He continued working through the thick woods about 100 yards with his nose locked to the ground. He found a bed that was fresh but had no visible blood. He continued working around the area and took back off. He made a big loop heading back toward the hunters last blood. We got about 40 yards from the hunters last blood and he took a hard left, going away from last blood. He continued working through the thick undergrowth about 80 yards, when i seen cash put his nose in the air. He started pulling like a freight train and i could see him laying up ahead. Unfortunately coyotes got to him before we did. Congrats to the hunter on a stud buck and thanks for trusting us to recover your trophy buck .When in doubt back out and give us a shout and we will give it our all to recover your buck or doe. Good luck this season everyone and always remember your harness. God bless !!

Good luck to all the hunters this weekend. Don't forget bug spray, tics are terrible this year. Remember to stay hydrated and don't forget your harness. And as always when in doubt back out and give us a shout and we will give it our all to recover your trophy buck. God bless and happy hunting everyone. If you're in Robertson County and get one down that runs a little ways before going down I would love to put my young dog on the track for free.
