Default RE: Who has ever been busted while drawing?

The last ones I can remember are a coyote in IL.........he was only 2 steps from the base of my tree and looking the other way. I could not see his eyes but when I got to 1/2 draw he snapped his head straight up at me and gone a micro second later. I don't think I'ever seen an animal move that fast, it was like a cartoon!.

Then this last season on the same farm the "Psycho Doe" as Greg and I like to call her ran away from me twice at 1/2 draw without ever looking up. She just bolted on a perfect wind both times and at the same point in the draw cycle. After she ran away the 2nd time (From 6 yards mind you) I sat there for 5 minutes drawing and letting down my bow slowly trying to hear if it was amking some noise.........nothing, whisper quiet unless it was letting out some dog whistle frequency sounds.
The SAME doe did the exact same thing to Greg the following week.
Boy we wanted her dead, she was making every animal in 10 miles nervous everytime she was around. Jumpiest deer I've ever seen in 23 years of bowhunting.
