Default RE: Drawing on an alert Doe

I don't disagree with any one's take on this because it is coming from your own personal experiences.I do believe you can kill animals that don't know what you are,and have settled down after you have stayed still for a period of time.Deer will accept movement if it is done very slowly.I have killed one buck with a rifle that had me pegged and foot stomped repeatedly and blew repeatedly but he didn't know what I was,he was trying to get me to move.He was a 21/2 year old eight point.I raised my rifle slowly over a period of about a minute and shot him.Some times deer do things that defy logic.You have to feel out the situation to assess what may be possible.What the gentleman asked initially is whether we thought it would be possible to draw on these deer not whether it would be advisable.Every situation is different.More than likely I wouldn't have drawn on those deer unless they settled down and were milling around the area again at ease.
