Did anyone else see last nights episode? I'm not a regular viewer, just happened to be channel surfing.
Anyway the father son team (I Think) were heading into their stand location and found their two biggest buck locked up in a field. These deer both had to be 170+. They knew both deer and had trail cam pictures of both. Both were still alive, but the smaller of the two looked completely spent. Both hunters still had buck tags......so you know what happened......they wroked their butts off to set them free. The larger buck still had a ton of energy and was thrashing about. The hunters ended up lassoing the bucks an tying them to the hitch on their truck. The smaller buck had a non-typical/droptine point on his right antler that they thought was keeping them locked. From the safety of the bed of the truck they used a pole saw to cut off the droptine. One of the hunters jumped out of the truck and pulled the rope from the antlers and pulled the antlers apart. Both bucks just sat there for a moment. then the larger one took off. The smaller laid there for quite a while. The hunters finally started touching the downed deer on the back with their rope and the deer finally got up. He was very unsteady on his feet, but did stagger off. The footage was incredible. Glad I got to see it. Only thing was they did not give any follow up on if they saw the deer again. Maybe in another episode there will be an update. I hope some of you get the chance to see this footage.
