It can be funny how deer act. Last year I spotted a buck with a bunch of does.
I shoot the buck, and only 1 of the does run. I watched the buck through the scope, walked about 3 steps and fell. Many of the does stayed, were looking around but did not run. It wasn't until they spotted me walking toward them.
I coulda stayed hidden and probably shot several more does???
Guess they didn't get it. I know if I was in a group, and heard a gun shot and somone fell... I am outta there...
