[QUOTE="JohnWess, post: 1728016, member: 106822"] Here is what I do. 1. Range and dial/holdover (Remember the range if possible) 2. Concentrate on the shot as you are. You have to kill the deer in order for there to be a deer to find. 3. After killing, take a mental picture and pick out some land mark. It could be a tree 1000 yards behind where you shot the deer or a mound right behind it. It doesn't matter, just some sort of landmark. I then leave something where I shot from that I can hopefully see from around where the deer is (an orange hat is perfect for this). 4. I have to Points of Focus and a Deer dead between the two and x amount of yards from my orange hat (where I shot from). This is what I do to look for a dead deer, blood, or any sign of a hit if I feel I missed. I hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
