Vacation winding down...thankful for a chance at a good buck. This guy was tending a doe. They were bedded 50 yards upwind. I had to get out of the stand in an our to go home and do some chores. So I decided to try something crazy. I got the doe's attention waving my hand. The buck was in some thicker stuff bedded and didn't see me. She got alert and came over to see what I was. Of course, the buck followed and the rest, as they say, is history. I shot him through both lungs, but he was totally fixated on keeping his eye on the doe. He ran 10 yards, stopped, then looked at the doe...5 seconds later...he was down. 20 steps from my tree. I just couldn't resist shooting this buck given the cool circumstances and the dwindling time for my vacation. I saw much bigger deer out searching today, just before I shot this one. Now is the time to be in the woods.
