((((( # 8 for the season so far ))))) While I was hunting this morning and doing some light rattling, I had a doe burst into one of my food plots with a nice 8 point buck in chase. She was zig zaging through the food plot and it looked like the buck' s nose was super glued to her butt! She wasn' t ready to breed but he sure was! This wasn' t the particular buck I was wanting but after watching this deer for four years I decided to go ahead and take him since he had massed out pretty well this year. The buck and doe were moving all over the food plot so fast I couldn' t get a good shot on him until I made a loud noise and got him to stop chasing her for a second. He had an 18 1/4 inch inside spread and a rough score of 142. His neck was fully swollen also. He only HAD one thing on his mind and that was getting that doe. I also have a friend that took a nice buck this morning and the buck he took was also chasing a doe. Anyway, for all of you down south, the pre-rut is in full swing and about a week and a half early so get ready and hold on tight for this fast and furious time! Good luck everyone! -- CDH
