I was hunting yesterday before the big rain and I was working a gobbler and was about 75 yards from where he was roosted. Well anyway I heard a hen calling to him so I started callig to her trying to get her to come to me so that the gobbler would follow. Well here she came, and I could tell there was something following her. Well come to find out it was a deer about three steps behind her. Every time she would walk he would follow she came over to me past me and around behind me and the deer followed her everywhere she went. She walked away and the deer went with her. She came back and the deer was right behind her. finally the deer saw us move and ran off only to come right back to the turkey and follow her on down the ridge and off together they went.
I wonder if that gobbler was wearing a deer outfit so that he would not get shot. He knew that deer season was already over and he would be safe if he wore a disguise! Or do you think that was just a mixed up deer that did not know what he was?
