LMAO!That fuckin crazy bell lady has been out twice ! I had a lone doe come down to feed on some acorns @0730 for a spell. While there, something came walking thru up behind me. Breeze is starting to pick up a bit.

That deer is huge and I swear I know him.Ok not so much of a live from the stand but more of a quick recap from this weekend.
Friday afternoon I meet Giles and we head out for a buddy hunt. It was a slow hunt except for a couple quick encounters.
One was with a great big potbellied buck that Giles saw but I never got a look at. I could tell it was a big deer from Dave's reaction. The deer never came closer and wandered off after a few minutes.
Saturday I went to another property and set some stands with a buddy and sat a few hours afterwards. Fairly uneventful except a basket rack that morning that my buddy missed.
Last night I went back to the same place Dave and I hunted Friday night and also where Dave killed his buck Saturday evening.
It was a stone quiet hunt until 5pm. I caught movement off to my left. Coming my direction was what had to be the deer Dave saw Friday. He passed by a small window in my range before I could get my bow in hand. He then moved off to about 25 yards. He knew something was up but couldn't figure out what it was. We played the stare down game for about 5 minutes before he worked his way to my right staying out of range.
This was the largest body deer I have ever laid eyes on. He looked like a Shetland pony coming through the woods with headgear to match. Hope I get to see him again.
When’s this”more intense rut” thing happen all the deer biologists tell us about?
Is that a split brow on his left side? Could be a 7. Cool deer!Beautiful evening had a doe here 30 min ago and visited by a giant 6 point when no one was around
