Default While gutting a deer...

Well I was just thinking about this and figured it would be interesting to find out if.......has anyone ever had a chance to take a shot, or has taken a shot on a deer while they were on the ground gutting a dead one. Bow or gun, doesnt matter, just curious. On top of that, tell me about any crazy experiences you've had while gutting an animal. Mite be fun.
thanx

About three years back when I was dressing out a small six pointer , I noticed that I was being watched by four does and a button buck.
Talk about intense , I felt like I was gonna get the crap kicked outta me so I stop to reach for my bow and thats when they ran.

I shot a coyote once that blood trailed the deer I had just shot...THE WRONG WAY! Smoked him with a Hammerhead.

two years ago my son shot a doe. we were just getting ready to gut her when we heard deer running toward us. a doe came running in and about ran over us. seconds later we heard grunting and here came a spike on the does trail. he spotted us from ten yards away and just stood there for a couple minutes looking at the downed doe and us like what happened then finnaly turned and ran off. we got a kick out of that

Gutted one several years ago. Went to get the truck and when I came back there were several deer surrounding her.

What a scent post!
