Hunt Story

I watched about 5-6 does and a fawn off to my right in some thick cover for around 45 minutes. They were in and out of it the whole time and I never saw the buck. The does then bedded down about 100 yards from me and then I saw him standing there. He then bedded down in the thickest part of it. Problem was they were heading away from me when they decided to get up and move on. I immediately started praying to turn him around. He then disappeared for about 5 minutes. Then he turned and came back with a doe in front of him. They came about 20 yards in front of me. He stopped and was quartering to me and when I got the chance I took it. Got him in the shoulder and a clean heart shot!
