This morning i saw a doe at 100% full sprint through an open field right torwards me, stop about 60 yards out, and stand there panting like a dog for15-20 seconds..... Then ran at a full sprint back the way she came... Im the only hunter here and there was little to no wind, even if there was i would wave been down wind
Ideas?

Twins are hard on a body. She's getting back in shape. Wouldn't want to breed with any ole cull buck.

I've seen something kinda similar. Had a doe four years ago running and jumping around. Ran in circles to be exact. Was very odd. Big mature doe alone. Was panting aswell. Thought she may of had something wrong with her.

I watched 2 button bucks & their momma run like that for at least 15 minutes a few weeks back. up & down the right away through the woods & back. I figgured just playing. Real enjoyable to watch.

I have seen Does do that as well usually because a coyote is chasing them, I bet the coyote stopped awile back and the doe never looked back because she was on adrenaline Just a thought

I'd agree with Loanman and say there was a predator after her.

I had 8 does at my feeder one time and one of them would run as far as 100yards out and run back just playing around

I have lots of footage of deer jumping around like idiots in food plots, even a nice 8 point spinning in circles like he was in the PBR. They can be quite playful.
