Hey Ausie a friend of mine had a simular thing happen to him. It was archery season, he shot a doe a little far back so he waited 3 hrs. or so before going after her. It was in the morning so he had plenty of time. When he and another friend of mine caught up with her she was dead but there was a 4 point buck standing over her. They stood back watching expecting the buck to bolt at any time. What they witnessed was the buck turned his attention to the doe and probed her with his antlers trying to get her up. When she wouldn't get up he tried to crouch low enough to do his thing. My buddies could not believe what they were seeing so they tried to get closer. As they did the buck got agressive and lowered his head and layed his ears back. Then he started in their direction.When he got to with in 30 yds they started hollering, banging trees and throwing sticks at him. The buck finally left but they sure watched their back trail on the way out. <img src=icon_smile_shock.gif border=0 align=middle>

Ausie, ah-hah!!!, that's it!! You reached in the wrong pocket and lit up up one of your scent sticks instead of a Winston!! (Just having a little fun with ya!) I swear sometimes deer know when they're safe and like to mess with you! There's always next year.
