Most interesting spot i killed a deer.

How about the first placed I looked. I got out of the truck, looked left and seen a Buck, and shot said buck. Usually we hunt all year and kill our deer in the last spot we look  :chuckle:
  I'll bet that was the last place u looked!  :chuckle:

Ever see the movie "Sling Blade"?  Remember when Carl goes to visit his father Robert Duval? That old house is right next to my folks' property in Avilla, Arkansas. I've killed several smoker white tails in that backyard and on the rest of that property. The movie was filmed in my hometown.


Oh no, no wonder you're on the "FIGHT" forum. Ya gonna get some of dem, french fries ? Uh huh !! Besides that, cool !!!!

Drew that Desert tag in 2005, I'm a Blacktail hunter, so it was interesting to hunt somewhere dry and flat. Got a 27 wide 3x4, solo DIY hunt was awesome. Was tough to see bucks all week and not shoot, knowing there are huge bucks in there. Saw the buck I shot 3 different times in the same day, so I figured that the man above wanted me to shoot that one!!

One morning I shot a deer in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas, I don't know.

Well it's not exotic or very exciting, but I have killed two deer on hwy. 395  that had their backs broken by vehicles......?..didn't have my pistol, so I used my hands and choked them out. :'(

Have done that a few times.  One time when I was a recruiter for the Army I finished off a mule deer doe with a broken back by breaking her neck, when I had a kid who had just enlisted in the passenger seat.  He didn't say much the rest of the way back to Walla Walla... :chuckle:

The best I can come up with but not as exciting as some of the great stories on here:  I spotted a legal mulie at 30 yds just as he spotted me and ran off.  I almost had an opportunity at 100 yds but with the glare of the sun wasn't quick enough.  I spotted him again at 400 yds two ridges away in the open and got on my sticks, waited for him to stop.  He did and I found out why after I took the shot. He tipped over backwards and I heard an Fbomb echo from the bowl, then" nice shot!"  The other hunter was there long before me and said he was at full draw with a bow 30 yds from that deer when I shot it out from under him. I was pretty ticked off at him cause he was not wearing orange and bowhunting out of season and hunting on his dads tag.  I could have had 10 bonus points that year.  Not to mention I could have shot him being he was camoed up and next to a lone tree when I shot. I guess I scared the u know what out of him when the deer tipped over probably before he heard the shot at that distance.

First and only BT buck I've shot. I hiked straight cross country from the gate about two hrs before first light with a place in mind and my climber on my back. I was in the tree about 20 minutes before light, it was perfectly clear and really cold all day. I hung in there until about 40 minutes before dark and just was too cold and absolutely had enough, this was Dec 1 and I had hunte a lot since late archery opener. I was on the walk out to my truck, finally popped out on the road about 50 yard from my truck right at last light,tree stand still on my back, walked about twenty yards on the road towards my truck when a doe ran across the road about 15 yards in front of me. I knocked an arrow, took ten more steps when I noticed movement to my right where the doe had come from. It's a spike buck about 12 yards away staring at me, I sent an arraw through his heart, he wheeled down hill and LITERALLY died 15 feet from my truck.
Super anticlimactic but I was happy to take it

Thought of another one. I was 22 and looking for my 2 nd bow kill. I was still hunting right next to I-90 and kicked up two identically 2x2s. They hung around long enough for me to shoot one with my bow not 30 yards from the freeway. I smile every time I drive past that spot. :chuckle:

"HOYT" why would you even consider shooting something else?

I was hunting some steep country in eastern wa and was walking on a deer trail because it was THE only place to walk.  I literally had a cliff on my left and a big drop off on my right.  I came to a corner and found some does bedded that saw me.  I held still until they didn't mind me anymore.  Something spooked them, and they all started running my way.  Little did I know there was a buck with them that was the first one to come around the corner.  I still remember the look of suprise on his face he met me at 5 feet!  His front legs locked up straight and his eyes were about ready to pop out of his head (probably like mine).  He was about to run me over!  I pulled up my rifle and torched off a round, point and shoot style.  He went over backwards and off a 15' cliff.  I was only a teenager and it was my first buck.  I will never forget it!
