A few years ago, during the rut, I watched a large 7 point buck being followed by 2 does. The continued to sniff and get close to him and he was irritated by them. He eventually lowered his head and charged them in an attempt to get them to leave. I was tempted to take the easy 10 yard shot to him, but I knew there were bigger bucks in the area, si I let him live. I often have wondered if he was a little light in the hooves!
