RE: What's the closest you've been?
One time while squirrel hunting I was on my knees gutting a tree rat I had JUST shot. I heard something behind me and when I turned to look I was face to face with a 5 point buck! My nose was 4 or 5 inches from the deers! I had just shot my gun not a minute earlier! The buck then leaned even closer sniffing me! I thought it was going to bite me!!! I stood up and jumped back a step or two and the buck just turned and walked away! Deep in the rut that boy was! I almost found out what a real deer mount was! LOL! I also had 2 does jump over my legs when I was sitting/sleeping along a stone wall!
