Chasing mature whitetails is difficult because as every hunter knows they behave differently than the rest of the herd.

They're reclusive and almost like a different species because they don't bed where the does and smaller bucks bed. They don't take the same routes to food sources as the other deer and will travel much further distances in order to find the best food sources, especially during the winter months.

I haven't laid eyes on "Coke Can" all season...until 2 days ago.

On this particular farm there was an older, larger bodied buck named "Fresh" that ruled the roost for most of October and the 1st week of November.

As a matter of fact "Fresh" tore down the fences surrounding my apple trees on the south end of the @whitetailinstitute clover plot and one of them didn't make it.

But I'd have the last laugh because on November 8th I shot him at 16 yards 😉

His name comes from the fact that his bases are close to 6" circumference, which reminds me of a Coca Cola can.

After the previous 4 days of steady rain subsided we were gifted with the perfect NNW wind, a rising barometer and a red moon so if I wanted to lay down some footage of him before he shed his antlers I thought this would be my best chance.

At 4:15pm a small 1.5 yr old 8 pointer stepped into the beans. While he fed he nervously kept looking back into the timber.

At 4:36pm he stepped out with a 70-80lb. doe who was obviously in heat. Immediately after he entered the plot 3 more smaller bucks also made their presence and Coke Can had to constantly chase the other bucks away from her.

It was a treat to finally see him on the hoof and to lay down close to 16 min worth of footage.

Next year he'll be 5 years old and by far the dominant buck so I can't wait to see what he turns into.

Now all he has to do is survive the winter and avoid the coyotes...
