re: Decided to get into deer recovery/blood tracking (new pup) 2/14 update (End of Season)

Reba will be 14 weeks old Thursday, she has done 6 training tracks so far and it is going great so far. We did her furthest and most difficult track today, about 150 yards with about 0.5oz of blood (mainly put it on the drag, not much on the the ground). I think next week i will do a similar length but 1300 yards straight line and add a turn and go about another 20 yards. Don’t have much blood, been collecting what i can from when i thaw out packs of deer meat.

Will you be using more blood? 150 yards to 1300 yards seem like a huge jump in distance unless there is more blood

You can use beef blood if you're able to get it from a local butcher. They will give it to you for cheap or free since they have to pay someone to dispose of it anyway. Best advice I can give at this time of year is don't run any tracks on super hot days unless its early in the morning or late in the evening.

Try to make sure the wind is favorable for the turn or put extra scent at the turn. Last thing you want to do is for the dog to lose interest or “help” it find the turn.
