Default RE: Stopping Deer

Last year I "stopped" a small buck with a mouth bleat before I shot him.

When I made the sound, the deer immediately trotted directly toward my stand looking for the "doe" he'd heard. It brought him about 10 yards closer. He was looking for the doe when I put one through his boiler room.

Indeed he did run approximately 100 yards after he was hit even though at the time I shot him he didn't seem to be on "alert" for anything dangerous.

Good observation, one I have never before considered. I'll be paying attention from now on.
