Hunt Story
I had seen signs of bucks chasing does in this food plot, plus I had seen 5 bucks in the food plot the evening before. And when it was too late to shoot the evening before (while waiting for my wife to come get me in the truck -- to keep from spooking the deer) I saw a doe enter one side of the food plot and a large bodied deer (not one of the 5 bucks in the food plot) chased the doe back into the woods. I sat in a ladder stand the next evening (Friday, December 4th) on the downwind side of the food plot. At 5:44 pm a doe ran from the woods into the food plot and started staring back into the woods. About a minute later the buck came out of the woods toward the doe. After glassing him with my binoculars, I decided he was big enough to shoot. At the shot the buck dashed back into the woods, but he only made it about 75 yards--I heard him crash down.
