Well guys, I have a definite BBD! Only there is a small problem, I can't get to him. He came past me at 35 yds and I made a good shot, a little low but a good shot. Should be a low lung/heart shot. I let him get past me so he would continue forward into the woods after the shot (like I always do hunting swamp edges) But he ran back into the frags where he came from and I saw him go down "I think". It's tall frags and swamp grass and some shallow, some deep water and the bottom is that mucky crap that pulls your boots off when you try to walk. It took me about an hour to get 80 yds deep into it until I was in water up to my thighs wearing knee high boots.
I have no choice but to let him lay until daylight as I feel it's too dangerous to navigate the middle of that swamp in the dark. Some holes I've found in the past are over 5'-6' deep. There is a 0% chance the meat will be any good as it's going to be a low of 58 degrees tonight and he's been dead since 510 pm. I feel horrible about that but I'm just not going to risk it. first time I've ever had to venture this deep out there and it will be the first deer I have ever lost the meat from if I find him. Fingers crossed I find this guy in the morning. He looked to be somewhere around the 145"-150" mark easily! Going to be a sleepless night. I know he's dead, I just need to find him!

Thanks droptine! It's no 208"er like 195s buck but a great one for me. Pretty sure he could break the 150" mark and would be my new #2 if he does. Just broke out my old chest waders to take along tomorrow and they are about as cracked up as a original set of tires on a 1965 rambler lol. Looks like I'm getting wet! My only saving grace would be if he actually made it to shallower waters on the other side. Still sick to the stomach regardless.
