I touched a deer once. Back in 2002 I was out turkey/deerhunting with my bow and saw some turkeys comming up thetrail/road on my way into my stand soI got in the brush when all of a sudden the 8 point buck that I had been watching and seeing everyday since the opening of Bow season came within arms reach. I tried to get a shot with the bow but he was way too close to even draw. SoI reached out and touched him,I came pretty damned close to being kicked in the head as he bolted off. Well weeks went by and the end of bow season came and I still hadntgotten a shot at the buck, yet I saw him every single day, we kinda had a love hate relationship.I loved seeing him, and he hated seeing me. But he always showed himself just out of range even in the wide open open fields. Well opening day of gun season came and I had no doubts that Id have him dead by 8:00am. And thats exactly what I did. 7:58am to be exact. Scored 128 3/4.
