Well I got really lucky tonight. I had just put down my phone from my last post in this thread, looked up and had 7 does walk out about 200 yds away. Also had a small buck and a button come out closer behind me, but I didnt have a clear shot at them so I ignored them and focused on the group of does. I waited a few minutes for them to feed closer and see if anything else was going to come out. I finally decided to shoot the biggest doe at around 150yds once she turned broadside.
As I went to climb down, I noticed another doe still standing about 30 yds behind where I shot the first one, so I propped my rifle on the door to the stand and popped her too.
The downside to all this, I didnt know that all the recent rain had washed out a culvert on our property. So I ended up having to drag both deer over 150 yards to get them to the truck and then get both in the truck by myself. Both does were pretty good size. The bigger one around 160lbs and the other was about 130lbs. All in all it was a great day, but that about wore me out.
