If you've never needed to chase down a wounded deer, you probably don't understand why 6 is a good number.
If you've never had a wounded deer, you probably haven't hunted too long. It will happen, no matter how good you are.
Though I do know a number of guys who never realize they wounded a deer, because they think that if a deer runs away that they missed. Idjits.
Lost my first one 4 years ago, it sucked... Ended up following it until it got across property lines onto some no hunting land (of which there is a lot of around my hunting spot) I just hope someone else wound up finishing it off.
