Have been watching a big 8 breed a doe since 9. He's bedded about 70 yards away. Need another buck to show up. That gets him up and thrashing/moving. Great hunt. Full breeding party. Sticking it out

Good deal Gordo! Is he in a spot you can crawl down and sneak up on him! When they are with a doe, sneaking up on 'em is pretty dang easy.

Shit. Small buck came in, bumped doe. Big guy jumped up and went aftervlittle guy before getting back on her tail. The doe went away from my stand. Hope they loop around. Haven't seen a buck that big in a while. Stud

Was perfectly down wind until it just shifted. Still was alright with cross wind. Shit definitely shifted an hour or so ago unless I'm losing my mind

''Twas not meant to be. Gave it hell.

He never came back, but it was non stop movement. Single does out the ass. Thought one of them was his doe from earlier. Good small buck chaseing. Saw one at dusk that may have been a shooter.

I've never witnessed anything like that. Talk about a 'majestic' whitetail. Unreal. Watched him from 9-2ish. The first two hours that deer had his hands full 'guarding' his doe. It was crazy. There was at least one other really nice one. That was the first one he chased off.

Thought about putting the sneak on him but there where younger bucks bedded all around him and his doe. It was also some super thick shit and he was in the middle of it. Shit. Maybe should have gone for it

You witnessed the rare occasion of the mature buck of the neighborhood along with his satellite bucks. I've seen it a few times and is very rewarding.
I've only seen once the King of the woods with 5 does following him. That was a sight to be seen as well.

....every 10 years buddy and today was your day.
