Pt.1
Came up a real steep ridge and as I came over the top I noticed I was practically standing in a fresh bed, took one more step and as my head cleared the ridge top there was a doe bedded not 15' in front of me. I could see that there were 2 more deer standing in the bush beyond her, one of which was a real nice, but young buck and another doe. The rest of what happened was awesome and I'll let the video explain.

Pt.2
I sat where I was with the above buck and does for about 15 minutes having some fun with the buck and the can call before continuing on up the hill. About 15 minutes later I hear some crashing coming down the steep rockslide above and to my left. My binoculars went up and I found another nice but young buck chasing a doe downhill. By the time I got the camera rolling they were in the brush in front of me. Not great footage but the slide they came through is what amazes me, I had to come down it one day and it took about 10 minutes, they blew through the whole thing wide open in 30 seconds. I tried to can call on camera but the call had froze up, you can actually hear me smacking it against my leg at the end of the video.Turned out to be a 3 point about the same size as the first buck.
