    Just had an encounter with 3 does. Exciting but no shot for either of us. For a moment I thought we were going to get a double :tu:

    Got back in the stand after lunch and a nap around 3:40. A tall spiker just walked out of the swamp, by the base of my tree and down wind from me. Got some video. His rack was velvet with one patch of blood.
