I saw this guy chasing a doe early in the morning and couldn’t get a shot at him so I decided to stay in the stand for as long as it took hoping the doe would bring him back by. So glad I did because around 2:00 in the afternoon I heard him chasing her again. Unfortunately she was heading directly downwind of me and sure enough as soon as she hit that spot she skidded to a stop looked right at me and bolted back the way she came. Luckily the buck did the same thing. I knew I only had a split second to get the shot off and fortunately was able to pull it off.
