Remi has had 4 tracks so far but this was her first somewhat real one. Black buck ran about 75yrds after the shot. The other 3 dropped so I drug them off a ways to give her some training.

Read this whole thread again.
Ive put our new JRT on two mock trails at the age of about 2 months. Both trails roughly 20 feet. She did OK on the first but the second wasn't that great. Same blood, same hide, using a fair amount of blood but from looking at some of the posted pics and videos I may need a larger piece of hide.

Originally posted by BrokenJ View PostRough morning today. Hunter hit a nice ten with a bow. He said it was a good hit started tracking and found the arrow about 250 yards into the track. Good blood and I was thinking its in the bag. At 990 yards dimmit jumped the buck and the race was on. Blood was sparse and dimmit stayed on the trail. No blood for after 1200 yards and we just kept working into the wind towards where I thought he would go. Sure enough 1.75 miles in and an hour later dimmit jumped him again I could see the Bucks head through the brush couldn't get a shot, but thought dimmit would get him bayed. He was running half speed and breathing really hard. About 275 yards after he jumped him dimmit shut down. Was already hot and almost noon. Broom weeds were thick and I knew he was exhausted he wouldn't move just laid there panting. My dog is in great shape but his gas tank was on E. I carried him over 300 yards to a lake near by and about died myself, going to let him rest then take him back this afternoon and walk theough it again. Learned a lesson, carry extra water.
Buck is still alive, arrow entrance is where the pointer is. Looks to be doing ok brisket is swollen and lost a little weight. hope to catch him with a rifle.

A deer that is not lethally hit (will recover) should not be bayed and finished in my opinion.
