A buck from the 2004 season. He was within two feet of the tree I was in (I was 13ft up), in fact he was chewing on my pull rope when the arrow entered him.
That's very interesting. Because I leftthe bungee to my stand on the ground at the base of my tree last week and a small5ptcame in from behind me, smelled it and nearly jumped out of his skin!
My closest kill was a yearling doe this season. She was 8 feet from the base of my tree.
