2025 documenting hunts / another Ben series

Not looking too good. Can see where she stopped and then turned around. Now very little blood and thinking I hit lower.
 
So conclusion after those 2 hours of cats claw misery, pretty sure based off the blood color, the height on trees, how she stopped in one spot and there was three puddles and then back tracked and turned a different direction there was very little blood and spaced out long distances through grass that should have picked up blood off her easily. So pretty confident I hit her low and on the leg maybe.

There were 7 deer out there and I ranged them at 130 yards. Then they played a little and moved out further and I didn't range them and didn't think to compensate the added distance that was probably 145-150 yards. With my slug gun that's a 2" drop.

Bummed about it but confident it was not fatal. If you have ever experienced cats claw then you know what terrible fun my brother and I just went through.
