Mine was when I was bowhunting.
Crossing a series of small fields with deep ditches (with trees & brush) and decided to sit down on an old stump in the next ditch and take a smoke break. I lit a cigarette and looked back along the trail I had come across the last field on (about 50 yards) and there was a set of antlers that looked like something from a magazine cover sticking above the brush! I had put "red fox pee" on my boots as a cover scent and that huge buck was actually trailing me. He finally crossed the field and was within 10 yards when I shot. I watched the arrow dip right under his chest and stick in the ground and he was gone. Found where I had cut a small unseen twig with the broadhead as it was on it's way and it deflected the arrow enough for a complete miss.

Later talked to another hunter that saw the same buck that year and he said he counted 26 points through his binoculars.
As far as I know that buck died of old age.
