So close!
« on: November 17, 2014, 07:15:44 AM »
Yesterday I was hunting in the 101 for late bow me and a buddy had been walking and callin all day with out seeing any deer. At about 1230 we were headed back to the truck and I spotted a nice buck looking at us at about 80 yards, he takes off over the hill and I figured he was gone we started working are way to where the buck was when I look down and he's runnin right back towards us me and my buddy drop to one knee. He comes to about 65 yards and he won't come any closer I'm comfortable shooting at that distance. I figured I was going to get string jumped cause he knew we were there so I settled my pin righ on the bottom of his chest, let's jus say he didn't flinch and inch and I have him a nice trim job on the ole white belly!

I will give it to you, that is close! I can understand your decision and at the same time I am glad I rifle hunt so I do not have to make those  :chuckle:. Good luck as the season comes a little closer to home in the the next week.
