Im in 8h/g and have seen tons of deer. I shot two does on opening morning. Halfway down the stand ladder, a 8pt entered an opening and looked right at me and trotted off. But the best part had to be walking into my woods with just over an hour before sunlight, and walking to my stand. The LED flashlight I bought the night before picked up a pair of eyes looking back at me where my ladder was. It was the 10 pointer I had been after all bow season, bedded down, leaning against my ladder. And to boot it was way too dark to even think about shooting. I got within 10 yds, and he merely got up, and walked away. I couldnt do anything but keep saying " did that just happen?" . Of course, he got shot latter that day.[:' (]
