I got a bad one that still haunts me.

2 years ago i was bow hunting when i saw a giant 165-170" 10 point dogging a doe. I grunted and he stopped, but quickly moved on after this doe. Out of desperation i hit the horns together and to my surprise he stopped, paused for about 10 seconds and came trotting toward me on a string. Well when i saw this I put my antlers on the tree but the rope was not around the limb i was trying to but them on. As i reached for my bow, the limb of my bow hit the antlers and they both fell out of the tree, hitting the ground when he was about 10 yards away. He was stopped behind this big cedar for about 10 minutes just looking toward me. I had no shot and he just went back to the doe. I never saw him again although i did find one of his sheds. The single shed scored 76" with a broken brow tine at the base. Still one of the coolest things i have ever seen while hunting though!
