I shot her yesterday after seeing about 20 different deer, 5 different little bucks. I think I may have found this vaunted rut everyone is looking for, Haha. She was just hanging around way TOO long for my liking. I shot her and she went about 40yds and laid down behind me. I hadnt even sat down and I look up and here comes a doe followed by a nice 135-140 ish buck. They got to about 40 yds and she bolted and he followed. Then he stopped broadside at what I thought was 40yds. I let one fly and it went right under him, of course he just walked off like nothing had happened. I got my range finder out and of course he was at 50yds:smiley_boos:

So all in all not a bad day, glad i missd him completely and didnt just wound him.

(F) Tagging and game checking:

(1) It shall be unlawful to hunt or take a subsequent deer before a game tag has been attached to the previous deer taken that day and the date, time and county of kill are written in the spaces provided on the corresponding deer permit or antlerless permit for the deer that was taken.

No prob. The funny thing is, with all my deer kills I can honestly say I have bever been in that situation. Every deer ive ever shot, I get out of my stand/blind and either track or recover my deer. Its always good to learn something new! Thanks again
