ORIGINAL: NY Bowhunter
Maybe it's just me. The last thing on my mind (I dont' care what the situation) with a big buck 25 yards from me, is calling someone from HNI on my cell phone and telling them about it [:-]

. To each their own I guess, but that just seems..... well..... strange to me. Best of luck to you though bud!
I think it's a sign of having a great life and great friends to share an amazing encounter with. It's so much enjoyable to play it out for a friend while it's happening vs telling of it later.
SO, I ask you all, WHY NOT? I think that's awesome!
First
It's not legal to have my bow knocked in a boat with a motor running, it's treated same as a car.
It's not legal to shoot from a boat with a motor on it. I would have to take the motor off(out of the water).
I will not shoot a deer out of my boat.
Phone was in my pocket, all I said was "call Jeff"
Second
As soon as I stop he's gone, I can motor past them no issue. Just like a car, how many times have you driven by deer and they have not moved. Stop your car and what happens in pressure areas?
Third
I have seen him a lot, but I also have hunted a lot

Because I can sneak in and out with the boat I have not spook him off my best spots.
