Bloodless doe
Hunting with a doe tag in area 314 this past Tuesday,I had an unusual occurance.With fresh snow in the am.Early in the afternoon it cleared.Walking a gas line,a doe walked out about 80m.I dropped to one knee,when the crosshairs on the chest cavity I fired,I was sure I heard the bullet impact.The deer bolted.I tracked the deer on fresh snow,for about 70m with not one drop of blood showing,looked like a clean miss.Not the case,I found her dead,the bullet had exploded the liver,no exit wound.Without snow I doubt I would have found her.Pound for pound I have found the wt deer the most difficult to down on impact--But no blood thats a 1st.
