It slowly wonders away and is not spooked so I am encouraged that it will come back that evening. We tell our story to the others at deer camp, including my brother. I take my 11 year old son with me Sunday night to see if he can harvest his first buck (he has killed does the last 4 years and set a goal of getting a buck this year). He is very excited about possibly getting a chance at this big deer. We get to our stand and wait. After a while, a shot rings out very close to us. We soon find out that my brother snuck into the field in front of us and killed the 10 pt before it came into our view. My son is crushed and wonders why his uncle would do this. My brother has over 500 acers to hunt on and I basically have only one stand to hunt on with my wife and son. Obvioulsy the only reason he hunted there that afternoon was because we mentioned we saw the deer in that field. He also has killed several deer about that size, so it wasn't that special to him; but it would have meant the world to my son. He is still trying to understand why his 47 year old uncle would take that opportunity away from him (so am I).

I guess my story is a little different than yours....

Well, ask him! Or better yet, have your son ask him, see what he says. Sounds like your brother is an asshole. You should beat the sheot out of him!
