The only one I ever shot in the neck got away. I shot him in the neck with a muzzleloader and knocked him down.The deer bawled and as I was trying to reload he got up and staggerd away.We had a good blood trail for about 100 yards then it dried up.The deer fully recoverd then my brother killed it on the last day of season. But keep looking the deer might be down just ahead of you!

If where you hunt is anything like my place, with this heat, the buzzards will be out shortly if he's dead.

hey, it looks like he took a shot that should have killed the deer and he has not given up yet and even asked advice on the forum rather than just quitting. Nobody is a perfect shot and sometimes a deer gets away.

i think it equals slang for"shaking my head" not sure though.
no one would say that regarding a fellow hunter with a wounded deer. for they may be the next to loose one just for being a jerk , i dont think thats what whitetail freak ment.
