Hunt Story
I hadn't seen a deer all morning which was very unusual and had just sent a text to everyone asking where are the deer at? Then at 9:45 there he was standing at the end of one of my lanes. I took the shot and the deer ran off. I didn't realize he was behind a doe. The doe must have gotten by me because once I shot the doe ran toward me and crossed a few lanes of mine. Then I looked up at the spot I shot, and a spike was standing there. It followed every step the doe went on. Then a few minutes after the spike left a smaller 8-point was standing at the spot I shot. It went on the trail of the doe, as well. A few minutes after he left another spike was standing where I took the shot. It as well followed the doe trail. Obviously she was in heat. Later that afternoon, I witnessed a 6-point breed a doe in one of my lanes. I have been hunting for nearly 30 years and that was the first time I had ever witnessed a buck breed a doe!!!!
