Before you call

Give the tracker the best chance

Back out and stop grid searching. Walking the area spreads scent and turns a clean line into a puzzle. Mark the hit site and the last blood you found, note the time of the shot and what the deer did, then call. In Maryland you also need to notify the Natural Resources Police before a dog starts tracking, and the dog stays leashed the whole time.

Not sure whether a dog or a drone fits your situation? Our dog or drone guide walks through when each one wins.
