Default RE: Concrete deer decoy?

Look at all the bare earth surrounding the area where he was stuck. I just don't buy the story that he shot it , then it suddenly got "stuck" after just getting shot, then he shot it some more. A buck doesn't "fight" a doe decoy, he tries to mount it or scoops it in the side trying to manuvere it into position. Looks like the buck was already stuck for some time and struggling and someone called him to come and shoot it. Depending on how long the deer had been like this and whether or not it was stressed or had broken its back as they often do when thrashing around trying to get loose, it may have been the only option to dispatch the deer. In any case, this is one of those situations I would have kept under my hat.
