*RUT UPDATE*
Within the last week, we've seen several bigger does being chased. As of last night, that amount has doubled. Does herded up are being split by the bucks chasing. The rain and wind didn't keep them from being on their feet. Monday activity didn't start until an hour before sunset. Last night, they were moving as early as 3pm (from our perspective). As always, when in doubt, back out.
If you do shoot one, ALWAYS pay attention to the placement AND the body language of the deer. It helps increase the percentage of the recovery.
Shoot straight and aim small!
