Deer season is finally here!!!!!

I don't know about anyone else, but the temperatures have dropped from 98 degrees last week to a high of 50 degrees today. What a difference a week makes. Early season movement should be good this weekend, and I can't wait to get in the stand.

Quick question: Has anyone ever had a pass thru shot, and found the arrow with absolutely no blood on broadhead, arrow, vanes? A buddy of mine said he's seen it, but I've never heard of such thing.

The temp has dropped from the low to mid 80's into the 50's here in Indiana. It's supposed to be down around 40 in the morning.
I am also looking forward to getting out this weekend. It was to hot last weekend for me.

I have had a complete pass through and only showed a slight amount of blood on my vanes. I was suprised too.

Good Luck

Well temps in this area are from cold to hot depending on the hour lol. I have three tags and need to get the heck out there before the hot temps are gone.

AK,
Sorry to say, No it was not recovered.
I may have pushed the deer in my excitement.
I knew I made a good shot and heard the deer crash. Got down too soon I think.
Went to where she crashed and it looked like a hog had been slaughtered. No deer! Walked about 5 yards, blood everywhere, sprayed on weeds 2 feet off the ground on both sides of the trail.
No deer. I did not find another spot of blood.
My brother and I spent nearly 5 hours looking for more sign and could not. Sad day. I hated it that I had to leave this deer to die.
