To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

Jon, that sounds like a cool day in the woods.  I hope you get the big one before the season is over!

Nice, good luck getting him. You are right, you never know what some deer will do.

Wow, what an awesome day in the woods.  If you hadn't moved your stand, you would have missed that show.  The rut is just cranking up, and I have a hunch you'll have another encounter with him!

It really was a great night. One of my best days in the deer woods.  Lots of action/buck behavior that you often read about but very rarely get to see!   I'm plotting and scheming now. I'll be back after him tomorrow.

Pretty neat stuff! I've seen bucks spar and get a little rowdy before,  but never seen two big ones lock up and go full-on like that. That must have been a sight.  I did have a bruiser come by me once, on the trail of a hot doe with a small 6 point in tow.  The big guy suddenly stopped spun around with the hair bristled on his neck, and gave him a loud snort-wheeze.  The little guy didn't want any part of that and took off like a scalded cat. First time I had experienced a snort- wheeze.
Go get him Jon! Or send him over to my part of Illinois.
