Say you shoot a deer in a 75% chance of rain. It rains after leaving the deer sit for 30 min. How do you track that?

Marc St Louis:
Tracks

Eric Krewson:
Most of the time you don't, if it is starting to rain after a shot I get right on the trail before the blood washes away. I lost one of my first bow kills because I shot it in the rain, I couldn't find it that night and found it the next morning, it was a warm night and it had spoiled.

Because of that loss I quit bowhunting in the rain or if rain was imminent. I hunt evenings mostly and don't want to be looking for a deer after dark in the rain.

This is a hypothetical, one I'm learning from. Hope to learn better ideas and techniques than just following the red dots.
