Default Deer To Close!

Well I finally get to sit down in a ground blind after all these months at only twenty yards watching a feeder on an evening hunt. The wind (Breeze if any) was in my face, the temperature was around 55 and I felt I had a great setup. While I'm sitting there staring at the feeder I suddenly notice motion to my left. It is a five year old doe about 150# stepping out of the woods to my left about four yards away. 4 yards yep. Well she is not confortable streching her neck out to the opening searching for anyreason toRUN. Well in my excited state, she is offering a perfect broad side in about two steps. So what did I do? I reached up to take the safety off and she hit the next county in about a half a second. Don't know exactly what sent her running but she bolted. FAST!!!!!
We learn from error. Shame she was nice.
