Man What A Season I'm Having!!!!!!

I went out yesturday and was in my stand Same stand I shot 2 deer this muzzleloader season. Well about 9:00am I saw a cat trying to sneak up on some small birds. I put the scope on the cat and thought to my self I ought to (I hade cats and love birds) but of course I didn't. I was lowering the gun when I caught movement to my left. About 30 yards out was a huge doe walking I put the scope just behind her sholder and touched off. there was enough of a breeze blowing that it took the smoke away right away. As she ran away I saw blood qushing out from where I aimed. I was reloading as quick as I could but not soon enough as a smaller doe bounded as I was pushing the bullet down the barrel.After about 5 min I got out of the stand and followed a blood trail Little Steve Wonder could have followed for about 40 yards and there she was dead. I said to myself this has got to be a world record record doe or at least a state record. As I got ready to to dress the deer I said wait this ain't no doe and I checked the head and sure enough to huge soars where 2 antlers were. I was told the big one I got in there last week was not the big boy of the area, but every time you shoot a big deer you hear that so I sluffed it off. But I got to tell you that deer weighed almost 230 lbs and the sores were 3 inches around. So on sunday I'm going to start a new huntings season and try to find those sheds. The area I have been hunting is only 40 ac. so if he lost them in there I'll find them if I have to step on every square in of land there. Cause if he's bigger then the one I got last week imagin the size of the antlers I'm looking for.
