Swamp that doe was still alive 3 hrs later... My exit you could draw up better...

I've killed a big pile of deer and never seen anything like it..

Was a no stopping to search for blood type blood trail also.

Yeah, these bucks are on early estrous does, the majority will be about the second week for the Southern half of the county. The north part of the county is around Thanksgiving. When our bucks would rather kill each other over a doe my son has them on camera acting like buddies, lol.
We had another couple of does killed so we’re at 24 for the year. I think that’ll slack off as folks will start holding out for a buck, then we’ll go back to thinning them. CJ has been trying hard to get a buck but with semi rutting bucks, it’s tough for a kid to get on them that quick, lol. Those Spring and early Summer rains gave us some thick vegetation to deal with.

I should have taken the time to look closely at the path of my arrow that night, but I was tired after skinning and de-boning. The next day when I hauled the carcass back to the property to dump she was a little ripe and I did'nt want to open that abdomen...lol

Congratulations
Nice Deer
