and had 8 bucks and 11 does show them deer faces
bought made me crazy , watched two 8 points fight while a bigger buck just watched.
when it first started he intervened and let them know with certainty that he had not patience for them or that
seemed to be a momentary truce and he moved away a few yards and they went to it ....
one of the 8 points was a flat out crazy puppy and just wandered all around making trouble out in the field
he spanked lil bucks for fun and ran every doe out there for grins
was entertaining for sure ....
just inviting it it seemed as he held his tail at full up the entire time
eventually they came my way and thought for sure the big boy was mine .....
clicked off my safety and some of the does in that bunch slowly filtered in ....
yeah buddy here we go ....
then a ding dong spike ran them off and in a flash I went from a bunch of deer to nada
then sat from 5 till 6 watching a few far away and none visible on our place .....
sometimes it is what it is I suppose , H watched him at 50 yards that morning for 20 minutes on our place
we will likely go to whacking and stacking next weekend , just saying ...
trust me , if it was just to harvest venison it would a been long done
but I really wanted that bigger rack , but then again ....
I just may not wait for a "bigger" rack .....
