5 yards away from Buck!

Spotted this guy, worked our way over to him. The wind was howling and he was sleeping. I snuck in, ranged him at 5 yards. After getting a good look i knew he was a nice 3X3 but young with potential. Decided hes not the one for me yet, maybe if we meet again. But getting that close What A Rush!!!!

looks like a pretty big 3 point!,how long did he stay still and look at you when he first stood up?

Nice stalk Jace. What I find amassing is you actually "ranged" hin at five yards. lol

Ya i knew i was close and i wanted to see how close, i was surprised my ranged finder showed 5 yards. He stared at me for about 15-20 seconds while he was bedded, still a little sleepy i think, then he hopped up and took a couple steps away then looked for maybe 5 seconds then took off. It was intense. He deffinately looked a lot bigger as he was running away than when i was looking at his side profile. ive got till the end of november and that was the 3rd time id seen him, i feel like we might meet again

Spot and stock, that is the way I like to hunt, nice job getting to within 5 yards of him.

Good Job. Im still after my first deer (This is year two for me) and I have to say I probably wouldn't have been as conservation minded as yourself

Great ethics and good luck with Karma. Hope you get a 180 to make up for it.

I would have sent an arrow...nice rack, lots of meat, or maybe took a picture

There's no way I could of stopped myself at 5 yards either. He looked nice at tall. Good luck and happy hunting.
