well today was my 3rd day in the stand and it was nice and chilly so I new the deer would be moving.I got to bed around one last night and was up by 4 to get to my stand early since the moon is still in its full phase ,I was in stand by 515 and had deer running under me soon after ,as shooting light came I heard a branch break behind me and saw a good buck at 20 yards hitting the branchs w/ his antlers,he moved in to 15 and I could tell he was a nice 8 pt. that was out past the ears,he was moving in when he took off and ran past me but not in a frieghtened way ,I soon saw him chase 3 big does back down to me and turn off,I let the lead doe {biggest} come into 10 yards and let her have it ,I saw the shot was good as she took off.As I sat back down I could hear her give the death cry we all love so much so I knew she wasnt far,What I didnt realize was she ran down to a road,I sat for about 30 minutes or so just to give her time ,I was sitting there waiting when I heard a truck stop and some guys talking and laughing ,I then heard the sound of a tailgate slaming shut and the truck taking off ,I thought it was wierd so I got down and started trackng her ,I had good blood all the way out to the road then I saw it ,she couldnt make it up a small hill and died on the side of the road,I had a soaked bed of blood and some tire tracks in the grass,some bastard stole my doe on me.Well someone got there doe tag and is eating good thanks to me.I looked for about 30 minutes just to be safe but found no more sings of her anywhere.just my luck
