Beyond The Kill

This episode originally went live a little over a year ago and it’s one that could make the difference between an animal recovered and a hunt you’ll relive for years and wonder what you could have done differently.  As hunters, we do our best to make a clean kill, but if you spend enough time chasing critters in the mountains and backcountry, it’s inevitable that one day you’ll end up with a tracking scenario that tests every bit of fieldcraft you’ve earned. Enter blood tracking dogs.  Maybe you skipped this episode in the past. Maybe you’re headed out on a hunt and needed a reminder about the resources available for a scenario no hunter wants to deal with...an animal you’re struggling to recover. Either way, this is a really interesting episode with a deeply passionate dog owner that might just come in handy this fall. In the event you need to make a call you hoped you never would this season, links and resources are below.  @mattgagnonphoto  @rockymountainbiggamerec  www.rockymountainbiggamerecov
