Man a lot of good encounters, the funniest was wolfens second one. I have had a number of deer in the 5-10 foot range over the years, but the two best encounters I know of were not mine.
1. My uncle years ago was sitting in a travel lane with his back to a tree and had covered his legs with leaves, the wind was to his back blowing straight across the path. Well this doe comes meandering up the path and stepped right over his legs, then she caught his wind, turned, looked him dead square in the eyes, threw a flag and pissed all over him!!!
2. A good friend of mine was hunting in Ca. and had fallen asleep, well he was awakened by something rooting in his coat pocket where he had hard candy!!!! Ed said he almost crapped himself, because he knew there were black bear in the area. He said when he finally got the guts to look certain death in the eyes it turned out to be a yearling doe with a sweet tooth! Bucks only.
