First-light Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 It was an amazing opening day for us at camp! My brother shot an 8 pt around 7:30 then all hell broke loose at 9:00. A hot doe cam through and a friend took the 6 pt that was chasing it.The doe runs past me and I take it only to see a huge buck coming down the swail on her scent. I shoot him, the buck which is a 7 pt weighed 185lbs dressed. It is the one laying in the field, very dark colored on the deer pole. My nieces husband gets back into my stand after we gutted the deer and got them out of the woods. It wasn't more than a half hour and another hot doe comes along with three bucks chasing her. He shoots the second which was a real nice 8. The third buck shows up and was a giant but he just had to watch as big deer just stood over the buck he just shot. This all happened in the morning!!! 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First-light Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 We didn't have one of these bucks on our trail cameras this year. There is just so much good food available in 8P. We were just very lucky with the timing of those two hot does. There are a lot of deer per square mile, have two does in estrous at the same time will draw them in big time. I do have to say, true for this year and in the past when there is a hot doe usually the smaller bucks will be right behind trailing her. The big boys come in a few minutes later.
