Default RE: Funniest thing seen or done in the woods this year?

Happened last night actually. I was sitting in a makeshift blind and saw a buck chasing a doe about 150 yards out. Not knowing how big he was I hit made a buck tending a hot doe sequence and he made a BEE line to my blind, literally. He was three steps from my blind. Well he messes around for a bit before heading up to a food plot, 10 minutes later my little buddy comes barreling down the hill, and again comes within steps of the blind. I guess he thought he had missed the 'hot doe' the first time. He then proceeds to circle the blind once then top over the ridge I was sitting atop of. 5 minutes later he comes back full steam ahead again looking for that hot doe I guess. After another search around the blind, he made his way back to where he came from chasing the doe, 150 yards away. Well another buck comes up behind me from the ridge. The first buck slams the breaks and makes a hard U turn to come back to face off with the other buck. After the show down is over he circles down and back up the ridge once more before finally heading out to where he originally came from! Then the rest of the afternoon I see him dogging does about 150 yards out from where he came from. The little dude had some energy!

By the way- both bucks were 1.5 year old 4 points. However, the first buck, the one who made the incredible journey was an incredible yearling buck. Big forks and already out past his ears, he's going to be a nice one!
