Wisco Drone Services & Deer Recovery

Big weather front moving in this weekend. If you hit one back, don’t grid search too early and let the woods calm back down. If you’re unsure or the blood dries up, I’m around.

A good friend called saying he shot a deer but couldn’t find any blood. He searched all day with nothing to go off of and was convinced he still made a good hit.

I stopped out after dark, put the drone in the air, and within five minutes we had him located—dead about 800 yards from the shot.

Moral of the story? I have no idea, but i know no one would have found him without some extra help.

Situations like this are exactly why thermal recovery works. If you lose the trail, the drone doesn’t.
(And for the record I only took this one because he’s a good friend )

Yesterday, I received a call from a hunter who believed he had made a good lung shot, but lost the blood trail in the thick marsh grass. After a 30-second flight, I located it almost exactly where he thought it would be.

So we got a call about a deer that was hit a little back and maybe a little high. Blood trail disappeared, and they were out of options, so they called us in. We waited until the evening to fly, just to make sure the deer had time.

About two hours into the search, the thermal starts lighting up with a bunch of heat signatures. At first, we’re thinking maybe it’s just brush or raccoons or something small… but nope. We swing the drone around, hit the spotlight, and there they are—four bears. Just piled on the deer we were looking for.

And let me tell you… that was a sight. Watching those bears settle in for dinner, all from 200 feet in the air, safe and quiet. This is why the drones make such a difference. They don’t just find the deer—they show you everything. And on this one? Yeah… the bears beat us to it.

This weekend, I was able to track a couple of swamp monsters. Regrettably, both were found alive and well.

One of my coworkers shot a buck last night and lost the blood trail. He asked me if I could come take a look this morning. I found him, after 5 minutes in the air, still alive and bedded down. We're going to check him again after work this evening.

🦌 When the blood trail’s gone — the drone goes up!

This hunter knew he hit back and low, so he waited overnight. By morning, the rain had wiped out every drop of blood.

We launched the thermal drone and found the deer tucked deep in heavy cover within minutes.

Reach out before the coyotes or the weather do damage.
