It's going to be interesting to see how this buck recovers. We watched him walk off one day and he moved very slow. I guess with a slice through his loin that can be expected.

Damn, that's gotta hurt. I see the big gash but does it look like a second just in front of it 6-8 inches?
Yes, this is the buck that had a crossbow bolt sticking out of it. I think he either pushed it out causing the second wound or it worked itself out right there.
I have been hoping to cull this buck and was hunting on this morning looking for him. I was at one end of the property and he was at the other end.

It's cool watching a buck with more than a few years on him no matter what size the headgear is walking in that timid and alert state of mind. His senses on full alert 100% of the time when a hot doe its there to distract him.
Good luck with him Mike!
Good luck with him Mike!

Some survivors. The last pic is the buck that had the crossbow bolt in his side in November. His wound is healing but he did drop an antler last week.

I'm really hoping Splitty made it through muzzy. This deer is going to be special. I think he's only 4 and put on 30" this year. If he can add another 15" I think he will be in the 170s. These pics are 2 flats below where I set up that morning (first day of muzzy).
Very nice update Mike! Splitty should be a dandy next season! Hope he really blows up for ya! How you healing up till this point?
As far as getting around and quality of life I am great. I'm going to therapy 3 times a week. My shoulder aches some on the cold damp days but my neck is the biggest issue right now. Still no range of motion. Hoping to get cleared for work the second week of February. Thanks for asking.
Keep plugging away buddy! My ribs and collarbone still don't feel like they're back to normal yet and my accident happened on 7/24. Being 54 I guess my body doesn't heal as fast as it used to! I'd like to start shooting a recurve some but my collarbone just ain't there yet!
Hope you get the okay and get back to normal soon as I know the feeling! Good luck!
