Default Saturday's bow hunt

Got into my pop up ground blind this Saturday morning around 5AM just waiting for the sun to come up and hoping for my first deer with a bow.
At 7 AM I saw a buck coming in from left to right at about 50 yards. If he kept coming on that path he will cross in front of me at about 15 yards. At 7:06 he was at 30 yards. I could clearly see him through my peep but legal shooting time for that day was 7:16 AM!!!!!
At 7:07 he was 20 yards quartering to. At 7:09 he was at 15 or 16 yards broadside, and at 7:10 he was 20 yards quartering away.
By 7:16 he was 50 yards out. I tried to call him but he just kept going.
That was very exciting yet frustrating at the same time. To see one buck the whole year where I hunt would be good.
Hopefully my daughter can take him with a gun next Saturday on youth day.
