They're like a friggin magician.
I will never forget mule deer hunting once in Colorado sitting on top of a small ridge where the deer moved from feed to bed. I was on the ground tucked in a little pine tree. I looked left, right and back left and two mulies were standing there looking at me not 10 yards away. One was a 180 class non typical and the other a 150 class typical, both in complete velvet. Where the hell they came from I have no idea, they just appeared out of thin air it seemed. I froze and waited for them to walk away before I drew my bow. Apparently I drew too soon cause they took off. The bigger of the two stopped perfectly broad side at 40 yards and I proceeded to pick the wrong pin and sail an arrow harmlessly over its back, giving him a little hair cut.
I can still see that arrow in slow motion going over that bucks back,
