I had some luck with still hunting in 1998. I shot a nice buck in his bed while stillhunting into the wind along a fenceline. I thought I was pretty good until I looked at the bucks eyes when I went to retrieve him and realized that the eye that was facing me when I shot him was pretty much gone and that he was blind in that eye. Yeah I'd rather be lucky than good too.
I have taken a few other deer this way. Most of the time though, I didn't see the deer until I stopped and then they jumped up and took off. That's when I let them have it.
