Did you get both of his lungs aswell?
No idea? He didn't bleed much til the last 15 yards, He only went 45/50 but it was very thick and the tracking took over an hour. I am getting a shoulder mount done so I didn't split his chest cause it would ruin the cape. So when I was gutting him I just reached deep
I have had to butcher too many early October deer over the years the same day that I had to usually stop bowhunting a few days before we left for moose just in case I got one so it wouldn't spoil while I was gone. I heard about that "coolbot" from a buddy at work who also farms. So when I framed my up the camp I put it in, sprayed the walls with 5 inches of foam and put puck board on the walls. The cooler has saved me numerous times over the last 5/6/7 years.
Good job!

With these temps I won't leave a deer overnight. I've spent many nights breaking down deer to get them into whatever fridge or freezer space I could clear out, so I know the pain!! Congrats on the big deer and the forethought to have somewhere to put it.
Im seeing some GREAT bucks on my cameras at a couple of farms I picked up to hunt since I moved back. But it sure seems like the majority of the activity is middle of the nite. Almost no daytime movement. Hoping this cold snap starts to change that.
Seen plenty of movement the last few evenings within an hour of shooting light ending. 9 does/yearlings the other evening with a =n 8 chasing one specific doe. Tonight I watched him hitting his scrapes that only started opening up in the last 48. Tomorrow nights hunters moon started its affects a few days ago. I would heavily recommend spending the next bunch of the days in your stands if at all possible.
