What to Do After the SHOT!!

[@JimEllis-hq5zt]

"There is no test for when not to shoot". I have been a bow hunter for over 40 years. This man just dropped so much valuable knowledge that takes decade's to learn. Listen to this man. Thank you for sharing.

[@PremierCoupOutdoors]

Thank you very much, Robert!😊 I've only been praying archery since February of this year, '24. I will not attempt hunting this season. I am trying to learn as much as I can and prepare myself before I ever attempt hunting. I am learning a lot from you and your experience! I am also appreciative of your testimony for Jesus Christ! Your witness at the end of this video was so natural and from the heart! ❤️ I also started this KZbin channel just a couple of months ago! I get ideas💡of how to witness to viewers from the way you do it! Keep doing it! I'll be watching! 👀 😎 David

Great video RC! Last 30 seconds or so is the most important part for sure 🙂

[@locomotivecommanderpicca4869]

Great stuff, Robert, even for guys who have been doing it a long time. It's good to reinforce everything. Great advice. Now we just have to learn to follow it every year is a struggle

[@smoothvern165]

Beautiful advice! I have learned to do so many things exactly the way you describe them. Great video!

[@brianwalls6295]

I really enjoy your insight. I have bowhunted for 30 yrs now and I'm still learning stuff from you. I picked up a trad bow 4 yrs ago and have been hesitant to hunt deer with it. You have me excited to take it and even hunt from the ground...at least until the leaves are off the trees then I might fetch the compund.

[@Clinkscale61]

Thanks for the video, good information, I always have toilet paper in my back pocket one for the obvious reason and if I'm tracking a blood trail I put one square or so on a tree limb about eye level where you can look back and align them, then you can get them on the way back or let the rain melt them. Thanks, and Good Luck!!

Those are some great tips and reminders for opening day! You are a blessing for all of us bowhunters! God bless you!

Great stuff once again RC. Thank you for using a platform that you love so much to spread the word of our Lord and Savior!!! Good hunting and God Bless!

[@bobbypaquette3127]

Hunters needed to listen to yrs of knowledge you share, thanks GOD BLESS👍👍👍

[@KevinRedford-g8r]

Great video ! Great advice probably one of the most important videos i’ve ever seen you do. I heard this quote somewhere when hunting with traditional Bows the animal has to ask for the arrow. Don’t make it happen let it happen. God bless you and your upcoming season. Thanks again.

[@TheBamayaker]

Hey Robert really like your videos! I noticed you hunt in warm weather a good bit. You should do a video on how to handle game in warm weather. I’ve struggled with racing against the clock here in Alabama sometimes. Tips would be great!

[@markhicks1544]

You made excellent points. I had not been using a compass. I will surely do so after this.

[@RobertMiller-se9cm]

Thank you Mr. Carter, this is some of the best advice/knowledge that can be shared with us. I have been hunting from the ground for the last 2 years with just a chair I’m sure you will do well. God bless

[@ronaldmclane8321]

This was a great video. Thanks for letting us know about the paper trailing. That is a awesome idea . Thanks again.

[@george2099]

One of your best video's RC!!! It still hurts when you can't find one and you did your best! Even the doe i just shot Monday in Ky went 100y and was hit high on one side and exited behind the opposite shoulder heart. If it wasn't for my tradtracker string probably would not have found no blood. Thanks for your advice!!

[@ncsaddlehunter77]

Brother you have taught me so much over the past 3 years and really inspired me to hunt hard. I do have one question. Where do you buy your bucket hats? Nobody carries them around here and online it's hard to tell if they will fit my big head 😂. Thank you Robert. God Bless

[@robertcarte95]

@@ncsaddlehunter77 my wife gets them online. I bought the one I'm wearing at Bass pro I think. When I find them I get 2 or 3.

I think I am just going to say, THANK YOU!

[@larryreese6146]

Excellent advice. But I don't trust myself in the evenings and seldom hunt them. I keep a roll of orange ribbon in my pocket to mark where I made the shot, the first blood and about every 12 yards following the animal. Blood runs out, start circling that last bit of blood, small circles to bigger circles. Found one by smell. He was shot too far back but the arrow had ranged forward. I circled the last blood from 8 thirty till 1 o'clock. Every time I'd go by a certain point I'd smell that paunch stink. He was facing the other way, tucked up and hidden in a small depression under an old rotted brush pile. They camouflage so well when they hide they just disappear. Look away from where you know they are and glance back you'll have to look for them to find them again. Fellow needs to. E ethical. The shot you don't get today might be the one you'll get tomorrow, if you don't mess up. Thanks, Robert.

Yah know Brother, All these years Bow Hunting, it never Dawned on me to shoot my Judo into the Spot Where the Deer was Standing 🤦🏻‍♂️ Great Tips 👍🏻

Hey my friend I've been watching your website quite a bit and I know bad weather just came through their my prayers are with you and your family and all your neighbors I hope you're all safe and I'll pray for you

[@EdSandefur]

Had a guy tell me once he shot 7 deer before he killed one. I said, no, you killed some deer you didn’t find!

[@SamkoTradBow]

Excellent Excellent Info

[@4of333]

Use a UV flashlight they are cheap and blood will light up florescent orange it's what I use it's a game changer even in daylight with a rain for instance. Great vids

[@chadcook1862]

My fav time. I always give a min of 15 min before I even move. If it looked real good, I get down at 15. If it's cold and early and I'm certain the shot was good , I'll see if another will come by.

[@UncleDanBand64]

All solid advice. Now, my oldest son has a half Lab and Half traveling salesman. I can tell you this. His name is Cash. You put Cash on Deer that is bleeding they are pretty well guaranteed to get a ride in my Jeep. He is the best blood tracking dog I have ever seen. Started him at 7 months on Deer that I knew fell. Now he ain't got the best nose. He has felled on fatally hit animals in rain.

[@UncleDanBand64]

The best advice was the last about Jesus. God Bless You Sir.

[@SeanJorgenson-vy8nw]

I have a black light lens on my flash light makes blood glow. And a infrared lens.

[@RedNeckRN]

Thanks for the awesome knowledge. First year I’ll be hunting traditional. I do have to ask what quiver set up you’re using? Looks like a good setup. PVC pipe?

It's a Dawgware Quiver. They don't make them anymore.

Nate Steen builds them. They are hard to get. He only builds in his spare time. Long long waiting list.

Robert, hunt well and know there are many of us that hunt from the ground… I am looking at the ghost blind and I think I might build a version of it… Have you ever looked into them? God bless and be safe.

Amen. Jesus is Lord. Good tips on finding your deer. I’m colorblind so it’s very difficult for me. How about a video on getting your deer out of the woods. Quarter and pack, drag, or better yet phone a friend. Happy hunting.

Great Great advice from experience from a long life of hunting. And thanks for the invitation to accept Jesus Christ as Savior. I pray many will do this

[@blind-dateoutdoorssportsma547]

What to do after the shot. Over Exaggerate shaking. Over act on camera like a poor actor. Call your spouse and all hunting buddies. Wait 20 minutes before climbing down even thou you saw the deer drop in sight. Make a comment that you had to hurry and shot the deer again if he is only wounded because you didn't want to make him suffer. 😂 Why did you shoot him the 1st time then? Oh, and be sure to cut in a bunch of B footage during your recovery. Best wishes this coming season; especially to those that don't commit the above idiocies.😂
