Default RE: Bucks v. Does: Who Wins the IQ Test?

Well yesterday afternoon, the lead doe either saved its own life or one of it's followers. I had 5 doe come out at about 120 yards with a huge old doe in the lead, she had to of been pushing 200 pounds on the hoof, the wind was perfect and they never looked in my direction once, at about 40 yards out the lead doe jerked her head up and looked down the powerline for 30-40 seconds(not in my direction)and then started to feed again, about a minute later she did the exact same thing, but this time she headed back the way she came and the other 4 followed her. What ever spooked her was downwind of her where she was looking, I have no idea. What I found interesting was the 4 doe with her didn't have a care in the world, all they did was keep an eye on the lead doe and follow her lead. Oh by the way I was bowhunting or there would have been at least one and probably 2 more deer for my freezer.
