How many times did you see the buck you shot before you got a shot. Or was it the first time you saw him.

Mine I saw 3 times before I got him.

the one I got this year with the bow I had never seen before. The one I got with the rifle we had on camera a few times, but I hadn't seen him in person before.

I saw the first buck I took for the first time......the day I took him.

I saw the last buck I took on Nov. 17th, Nov. 25th, Nov. 27th, and the day I took him....12/09.

I didn't have game cam photos of either deer.

The two bucks I shot this year, one I'm sure I never seen before, the other I might have. I did see a few nice bucks when scouting, one of which could have been the one I shot, just not sure being in velvet and all.

I shot my buck within the first five minutes I saw him.

I thought I had shot a buck I'd seen three other times. I turned out that I shot a buck I'd never seen before!![&:]

While i was archery elk hunting i had a real nice buck on video in velvet. I managed to sneak up to him later on in the evening using a bale as a shield with the wind blowing in my face. He was at 20 yards however he was in the shadows of the forest edge as the sun was goin down fast. I drew but could not pick him out in my sights so i let off. That was august and i am thinking this is the same deer i killed in october. He was taken in the within 10 yards of where i drew on the august buck. This august buck looked alot bigger but it may have been the velvet that through me off. They both had 6 points on one side so i thought maybe it was the same one. Have to get a few more opinons on the video i have and the rack to be certain.

Of the three bucks I took this year (2 bow, 1 rifle), I saw each one twice. The first time none presented a shot and the second time they did.
