When we got up to fetch our prize, taking no more than 10 steps, the ram got up, ran off, never to be seen again, even though we'd find small drops of blood every 200 yards or so.


That's an amazing amount of detail you have on shot placement for an animal that wasn't recovered. Have any pictures or video of the shot? Was your hunter using Barnes bullets?
