If you can see the deer coming to you, look for a place where their head may go behind a tree or brush obscuring you from their sight so you can draw your bow. If you can't get it back then, stay still and do NOT stare at them....it's like they know sometimes they're being watched....lol If they go past you, a quartering away shot is always a good one in my book, and I'm sure many of folks here would agree. Good luck to you in your new found passion, and WELCOME to the boards!
