I look for anything out of place if I don't have any blood, and I also look high for blood. I've had situations with no blood on the ground but I'll find it on the tops of grass or on the side of trees. I look for tracks if the ground permits but if not I look for broken twigs, pushed over grass, or even a kicked over rock. I've also found that in alot, but not all cases bears and elk can be the worst for not leaving alot of blood.

I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them. John Wayne-The Shootist
