    Snuck a sit in tonight and had some action the last half hour. Had two does come by and a small buck came in and chased one around. The second doe circled back toward my stand but went behind the tree and stopped broadside at 12 yards and couldn't get drawn with the tree. I was hoping to take a doe but it was good to see some deer up and chasing anyway

    Well fellas the saga continues, I went in to where I thought the buck I hit went to look for him bc I haven’t slept right since I shot him. , I ended up following a series of creek beds and thickets until I came to this large one that was kinda an island with a creek all around. The buck I shot stood up and offered me a 25 yd shot and I stuck him! He hoping into the woods and bedded down, I pretty confident in the shot and I’m heading home now to get a friend to help me out. Hopefully this story has some hero pics at the end of it. I’ll keep y’all posted.
