Havent posted much in the last couple of years, but i guess that is what happens when you grow up and have kids and wife and career.

anyway, wanted to share my weekend. Friday buck from Martin County Indiana. This guy followed a doe in and they proceeded to hang within 60 yards of my stand. It was pretty amazing to watch, she moved, he moved, she stood and ate, he stood and watched. about 15 yards from here the whole time. then two little bucks came chasing another doe in, and he quickly proceeded to run them off, then right back to just standing and staring at the doe he was with. I was on the outside of about a 2 acre thicket where we had done a bunch of cutting about 7 years ago, and he then became intent on keeping her in thicket. She would start to walk off, and he would cut her off and push her back toward thicket. finally after 40 minutes, they walked within bow range.
from the stand:


where he died
