Default RE: deer stories

I have a lot of favorite hunts, but here is one of the best. I was bow hunting and it was the first day of archery season this year, (first week of october) and my dad was at work so he couldn't take me hunting. So I decided to walk across the road to my neighbors woods to hunt on my own. On my way in, I saw 2 does in the field at the woods edge. I was planning on just setting up on the ground since I didn't have my treestand up yet, but I figured I would give stalking a try. So I did, (it was raining outside which made it all easier) and I ended up getting within about 30 yards of a small doe. She never saw me until I got ready to draw back. It was the most challenging hunt I've ever had so far, getting so close to an animal so smart. I will definately try stalking again. Although the deer saw me, and I didn;t get a shot at her.
