RE: What' s the closest you ever got to a deer while hunting?
I was walking my uncle to his stand in the darkness early one morning. My uncle had his flashlight out and was in the lead when he noticed two sets of eyes just 5 yards away. He stopped and kept the light on them as I got next to him. We just stood still holding the light on them as the two does started to walk towards us. The bigger doe stopped about 3 feet away but the smaller one walked right up to the flash light until it hit her nose. Then in a FLASH those deer were gone! I think the little one didnt really know how far away the light was and didnt expect something to hit its nose. We still talk about that day.
