Scouting the field

[chiefbkt]

Went to my alfalfa field across the road to check it out. Wind was perfect. Walked along the field edge and belly crawled to the top of the knoll. Once at the top I was nearly face to face with a 4 point still in velvet. He was ~15 yards head down grazing away from me (thankfully). That was just the tip of the iceberg. There were 13 more deer in the field with him. 11 were does and fawns and the other 2 were nice 7 and 8 point 2 year olds out of velvet. It was nice to see a couple hard horns in person. Bright white antlers too. I guess I'll have to put a camera over there eventually.

Nice, I saw a bachelor group of 8 bucks at 4:30 today in a soybean field. 4 of them were 120 to 130's.
