Cecil Booth is doe-hunting again — after killing this great buck

Cecil Booth was watching a four-pointer when he saw a running doe appear. He was pretty sure what that meant so he got his .270 ready. Sure enough, this great buck showed up.

Booth has already killed a buck and  doe this year. He hunts in Bedford County, which has earn-a-buck regulations, so downing this buck meant booth was back to hunting for does for a while!
