Congrats to this hunter awsome recovery on a trophy. I met with him at 4:30 this afternoon and we had the buck found,gutted, and drug a mile back to the truck before dark! This buck left a blood trail that you could run down for 400 yards. The hunter waited for 20 minutes before getting on the blood trail and was certain he had not made it far loosing that amount of blood. The buck was bedded and jumped up. They called me and I was able to find him within 30 minutes of being there the deer had made it right at a mile from where it was shot. These animals are insanely tough it amazes me of what they are capable of. Happy new year everyone thanks for all the buisness this year and thanks everyone that has helped spread the word about me.

Another special recovery this morning what a trophy for a 9 year olds first archery buck! Her and her father went hunting yesterday afternoon and she was able to get a shot on this buck. They tracked blood for 150 yards then was not able to locate any more. They made a really good decision and made this recovery an easy one. They backed out and called me. I was able get to them and locate the buck at 6 am only 150 yards from last blood.
I have learned alot from doing these recoveries but the most important is giving the deer time. The absolute worst thing a hunter can do is start grid searching too soon after loosing blood. This recovery is a good example why not to make that mistake. This buck was only 150 yards from the last blood the shot was a little far back but not bad. When we got to the buck around 13 hours after the shot he was not stiff yet had not been dead long. Had these hunters started grid searching last night with the buck beded so close they would have more than likely jumped him up.

Special recovery last night my daughter's first deer! She shot the deer in the food plot at 30 yards the shot was off too far back. We found the bolt and a couple clumps of hair but never could find any blood. We went and got the drone an was able to locate the deer 200 yards from where she shot it bedded down but still well alive. We backed out an come back at 8 o'clock last night and deer was dead a c**n and a opossum had found it.

Wanted to share a story of my wifes Christmas day buck from last year it sure showed me the importance of being patient and not taking the chance of bumping them. I considered the drone had paid for itself after this. We went hunting that evening and it was drizzling rain right before dark the buck came by the ground blind and she shot. I heard the arrow hit but did not see it. We got out of the blind and looked for blood and did find some but it was difficult with the leaves wet. The drone was a 45 minute drive from us but not being sure where the shot hit I thaught to myself this is crazy having a drone and trying to track this deer taking a chance of jumping him not knowing where he was hit. We decided to go get the drone and come back the buck was beded within a hundred yards of where he had been shot. We watched this buck for 2 hours on the drone he got up 3 times within those 2 hours he would walk little ways and then bed back down. We decided to leave him and come find him again in the morning. The buck was dead the next morning had made it 200 more yards from where we had left him. I am certain if we would have walked in there tracking him for sure in those first 2 hours that we watched him on the drone he would have had enough energy to run a long ways and possibly even out of the range of the drone.

Il be honest almost every deer i have not located has been pushed, jumped or, grid searched . Every call I get from those who wait to track if they are unsure of the shot then go find blood then run out of blood then call me that deer is usually within 500 yards dead or alive.
I know $200 is alot of money but I know I for sure spend more just trying to get a shot at one. if you are unsure about the shot give the deer plenty of time. If you run out of blood or blood starts drying up then is the time to question if it is worth the $200 to find it that increases your chances by ALOT.
Now circling back around if you do jump them there are still chances. I have found them dead and alive within 300 yards from where they have been jumped and I have been to some that that have been jumped and dont find them at all.

Another search this evening hunter shot this buck shortly after daylight followed the blood into the timber and jumped the buck. He backed out for a few hours went in again and lost blood a short distance after. Buck appeared to have a broken leg other than that appeard to be doing well. The hunter is going to check him again in the morning. Thanks everyone that has used me this year and thanks to those that have recomended me and sharing my posts. I have had a really busy week if anyone needs anything call or text me 1417-247-5504.

Hey everyone have had several calls and messages about pricing lately. I charge $200 for up to two hours of searching or until deer is found plus $1 a mile round trip from Walmart in Mountain View Missouri i dont charge any trophy fee, finding fee, or anything extra.
I have had a really good year so far I have recovered a lot and have found several still alive wich is unfortunate but its good to know they are still around and well.
This is an excellent tool I have not flown for anybody that didnt think it was awsome and ask how much it cost, but it is not magic so not 100% guaranteed Sometime the deer get pushed past the limits of the drone in some places the tree canopy stays really thick like in a patch of young cedars wich makes it really difficult but not impossible just have to hope there is enough opening to see through.
Now the ugly I have only overlooked one deer since I have been doing this that I should have found no excuse. I will stand behind my work and make it right if something like that is to ever happens again. This is the only 100% guarontee I have if I do work for you and you find the deer within a couple days dead and it is in a place I should have found it within bounds and not under a thick canopy I will make it right with you.
Good luck to everyone this season if you need me call me 1417-247-5504

Another successful recovery today! Congrats to Shannon Marks on harvesting this old Warrior. Shannon shot this deer at 5 wednesday evening we were able to locate the buck at 7 am this morning a couple properties over. The buck was bedded down head on the ground but I could see it breathing. Shannon said he would wait till around noon and try to walk in on him i agreed and thought that was plenty of time that i thaught he was too weak to pick his head up. As Shannon went in to get his deer at noon it got up on him. He immediately backed out and waited till I could come back this evening. We were able to locate the buck again this evening he had made it another 600 yards and crossed a fence before expiring on a pond bank. These ol bucks are tough animals!
