Description

This is a big guy with an easy spirit, Hiking the deer trails in Cades Cove TN, Several Does passed just in front of me, seemingly in a hurry. A few minutes later I come across a young 8 point buck who seems to be just worried about something, pacing and really nervous. Hiking on up toward the crest of the ridge, I come across this beautiful 12 point buck, He is not nervous, in fact he continued munching on acorns, sniffing the air, marking the ground, and banging his huge rack up into some fallen storm damage tree limbs making a sound that resembled two bucks knocking their antlers together, After a while he just decided to rest. At one point he just laid his head down and I thought he had gone to sleep but instead he was picking up acorns and toying with them in his mouth for a bit then eating them.
