Hey guys, I went out tonight and set up my trail camera, found a great spot and was really pumped, i was seeing bucks all over and some good sign, while fidgeting around trying to get it situated i heard the crack of a rifle, it sounded fairly close but i was down this huge valley so i didnt think much of it. about 20 minutes later i walked out along a field edge and about a 150 yards away from the parking lot, I looked down and there was blood just everywhere, and i mean everywhere, frothy lung shot blood. I was like WTF and kind of looked over and a huge blood trail led off into the grass. Okay so now my heart was in overdrive, I was about 3 miles back on a dead end road armed with nothing but a Mt. Dew bottle, I couldnt see my car but i knew it was just on the other side of the brim but didnt know who else was there. This deer had to have just been shot from the shot i heard because my boot tracks walking in, walked right by the pools of blood and I know i wouldnt of missed that. I got the wierdest feeling in my life, my stomach fell to my feet, and ive heard crazy stories about poachers not wanting to get caught, so I went tiptoeing back accrossed the grass ,hoping to not catch a bullet in my chest, in case anything was out of place, and when i finally dove into my car, somebody drove by and flung mud and rutted up all around my car.
I put the ole Saturn in performance mode and got the heck out of there, man I didnt know what to do, but all i know is I didnt want to be there
