Do what you want.....but I'd take the camera down.....just in case. There's nothing it can tell you now....that you don't already know.

Good luck, jm. You're SO close.

Tough break man! At least you know he is around though. Good luck with him.

That takes some real control. He will slip up. Stay on him or move to an earlier stop on his route.

I HOPE YOU ARE KIDDING!!

No way did I want to risk wounding that buck or any deer for that matter. Not finding him would have killed me. Or even worse, finding a pile of bones shed hunting in the spring.

Please only take shots when you are sure you can make them. Nothing is for sure when shooting at a deer. But never take shots that have a better than average chance of failure.
