Got out to the stand late, about 7:45 spooked a group of does into the swamp. I climbed into my stand and in less than 10 minutes the 7 point came chasing the does I had just spooked he came right down under my stand and shot him between the shoulder blades, he was still alive so I got down to finish the job after I did i made a couple phone calls excited about the buck I had just harvested when I heard branches breaking.. I looked up in disbelief there was a nice 10 point walking right down the edge of the swamp walked right up to me about 15-20 yards stood there for 5 minutes or so, he put his head down n started eating acorns so I nocked an arrow, drew back and when he looked up shot him in the neck he ran about 25 yards! Just a crazy occurrence and a hunt ill never forget!!
