I was out looking for whitetails again today but was again having no luck so switched to photographing muleys. I was trying to grunt in a 4 point but he was circling me to get my wind and eventually got it. He was a little too far out to get decent photos but I did get a couple and was able to crop them a bit. When he left I looked behind me and saw two more bucks coming in. The one looked pretty good so when they went behind a ridge I moved to a location where the wind was better. The bigger buck came over the ridge first and started heading my direction. It looked like he would pass on my left about 20-30 yards away which would be perfect for photos. He changed direction slightly and came right at me. The brush was too thick and I could only see his head and antlers. He was getting too close and there was too much brush in the way for photos so when he was at 20 yards I grunted to stop him and raised up on my knees. I figured I would try and get the best photo I could. I had to manually focus through a bush that was in between me and him ( that is why his face is unclear). The photo turned out pretty good but if the bush had not been there it would have been awesome. He trotted away a bit but I was able to grunt at him and get him to stop so I could take a couple more photos. He eventually circled me and got my wind. I was able to get a couple more photos as he circled. I also photographed the smaller buck that was with him. He was pissed and looking for a fight.
The first buck in the story. He looks like he might have injured his right eye.
The big buck. Had to manually focus through a bush between me and him(damn that bush)
Here is the little guy with the big guy. He was really pissed and looking to kick my butt. I had to focus between branches in between us and that is why the photo is so blurry except for the deer.
