We all have a few tips and tricks that we use year after year. Whether it be for convenience or a solution, they just may help another hunter to pass those along the way. First and most handy at times for me is a spray bottle of peroxide. We have a small 89 cent spray bottle and keep it full of peroxide....about 2.00 total. Whenever a tracking job is questionable, the peroxide goes with us. Blood will definately foam and there is no question if those little red spots are blood or not.

Another handy one is to have a large trebble hook (barbs ground off of course) and a magnet in a small bottle in your pack. I have retrieved a few gloves, arrows and even a whole quiver once. Just make sure both will attach to your bow rope and fish them back up to ya. The magnet will get metal objects the hook can't and add weight to the trebble hook if wind is blowing much.
