No one was seeing any axis deer at all, guess they high tailed it, so I finally shot a big WT doe. I was watching one at my "sendaro" feeder, but could never get a good angle on her and she finally walked off. Five minutes after that I saw a pretty nice 8 point, but he was young and not big enough to make want to spend money at the taxidermy. He jumped out of the pen, walked over to a cedar and rubbed his head on the branches. Shortly, after he left two yearlings walked up and started browsing around, they we just too small to harvest and then momma came in behind them, walked over the branch the buck rubbed on and sniffed around.
Two minutes later, she was in the pen, standing sideways offering a perfect shot, I aimed behind the shoulder and fired, she went down like a sack of potatoes and never moved again. Turns out I hit her high just above the shoulder, guess I broke her spine or something, she never knew what hit her.
