COME ON GUYS... Team 7 is running away with it.. WE NEED ANOTHER

Someone please step up to the plate and hit a homer....
One decent buck will it? along with gutshots buck we will be back in first. I did take another buck this weekend a 7 pt. One crazy sunday morning after i shot the deer at 20 yrds. it jump and ran about another 20 yrds and just stood there for about a min then fell over i don`t think he ever new what hit him? This happened around 8.30am After that i sat back down and waited for a while. I could see the deer laying there so i was not to worried. After about 10 min i had two does come buy at around 15yrds. I was by myself so i really did not fill like dragging two out! After they went buy i Had two more doe`s come buy around 20-25 yrds Big doe and a smaller one. After they went buy i sat back down for about 20.min then had a small six pt come buy at around 15-20yrds out. At around 9:45 i decided to come down but when i stood up i glanced over at the deer i shot something did not look right? Something was moving? For a second i had a crazy thought that my deer was not quit dead and was trying to get up! But he had been laying there for over an hour? Then i saw a bushy tail? I have had coyote attack a deer i shot some yrs back and tore it up. I did not wont this to happen again so i grabed my bow and turned and took a guess at how far it was away? i guessed at around 40-42yrds. I had been playing around in the back yard the week before shooting long distances so i drew back and looked at what i thought was a coyote but this time this crazy thing had climbed on top of my deer and was sitting on its rib cage and was pulling on the deers ear? So i took aim above the animal and released the arrow. The arrow hit perfect right through the hart of this animal i climb down and went to see just what it was and it turned out to be a red fox! I could not believe it! I shot a red fox off the back of the buck i had killed an hour or so before at a range (40-42yrds) Best shot i ever made on just about any thing. I have plenty of pics and will post them to night or tomorrow of the deer and fox together. But back to the contest i believe we can win this thing with no problem but we are going to need one or two more bucks to do it and i don`t think they will have to be all that big? (Just a guess) Lets rock team -8
