Found out yesterday that the guys hunting on a few acres across the road shot the buck that I saw under my stand a few times during early October. It had 6 points on one side and a double brow tine on the other side, but was broken off after the G2 on the double-brow-tine side. The guy that shot it was quite proud of it, but there will be one less trophy buck in the woods next year. Well that's the way it goes. If you let the smaller or broken antlered deer walk, they may get shot elsewhere. I met the guys when they asked to track a doe through my place (3rd time in the last few years). They did not find it alsthough the tracks were very clear in the snow. It was bleeding very little and ran 1/4 mile on my place without being pushed. If it was not mortally wounded, it will be a lot more warry in the future. Happy New Year to all!!!
