I was standing in my garage at 10pm tonight and heard 2 bucks fighting in the field next to me. They were REALLY going at it.

I decided to sneak over with the binoculars and see what I could see. As I approached the opening next to our barn that leads to the field, (mind you, I have a t-shirt sweat pants and shoes with bino's), I see the moving outline of a big deer moving down the tree line. I stand absolutely motionless as this 10 point walks 15 feet from me and never has any idea I'm there.

He had NO clue I was there.

It was neat knowing that this big boy just got done duking it out with another bad boy and I was there after the fight.

I never saw the other deer. As far as I know, he was bigger, badder and better :)

That had to get you a little fired up!! VERY cool!!!
That should also give you your own answer to your earlier post "Is everyone still seeing them chase?"....written on the same day.
Just goes to show you, it's never over til it's over. Even when the does go out of estrus, the bucks won't quit trying for a week or so. There's almost always a tactic that can be applied in November to get on a buck. And the fact always remains that a good buck can walk right in front of you at any time and make your whole season in an instant.
They're still out there waiting for you, Jimmy.
