Default RE: Wrong Deer?

Not a wrong deer story, but almost..

When I was filming Justin at the Campbell's Archery Deer Challenge, a group of does came up to the tree. Now, for scoring the video, you have to have like two minutes of uninterrupted footage of the animal you shoot.Also, theheavier the doe, the higher the score. So, I'm zoomed out so all the does are in the frame. One doe comes over and offers a shot and I'm trying to get Justin to shoot, but there's another slightly larger doe that's not quite in position that he's eyeballing. Meanwhile I'm still not zooming in on any one deer so I don't lose points. We sort of start whisper-arguing in the tree.Me:"Shoot that one already" Justin: "But that one is bigger." Me: "Don't make me kick you." The deer start to really split up sokeeping them in the frame is almost impossible.About then Justinshot the first, slightly smaller doe (143lbs) and Iwas able to keep the camera on her the whole time. It was interesting.
