Yesterday I was walking out to my stand and there is a big oak right off my trail and I alwayspeak around to see if there are any deer grazing in my food plot. Well I seen there was a deer laying on the ground soI wentbehind the tree and noked a arrow asI looked again he was still there so I whistled, and he layed there,... he was deadI mean what the heck here I want to shoot a LIVING deer not a dead one[&o]! I went up and looked at him he was a little 6pointer witha arrow wound right in the backquarter, he was laying on a fresh scrape right within the shooting lane of my stand. Maybe he just got wounded and got in a fight with abig buck? What do ya'll think?

You said he was wounded. Was it old? If so maybe he died of infection, definitely a shame.
