[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 1765396, member: 63925"] Scouting a ridge, heard a deer coming up and was going to crest right on me. I was standing next to large oak and peeked around to see what it was; if doe, needed to fill freezer so sure enough, it was big one. I drew back and she walked right past the oak I was next to; I think the arrow may have cleared the rest before it hit her! She spun and ran right next to me inches from me heading back down the ridge. I had blood spray on my camo pants! She ran down the ridge right towards my truck which was another blessing that NEVER happens to me. My uncle came over to me where I was dressing her out and didn't believe I shot her on the ground. The shot angle was so steep it was CLEARLY a treestand shot in his mind. I literally had to shoot down quite a bit since I am 6'4" which would mean I had to really focus on shooting down. I still think it was one of my hardest bow shots I have made. I showed him my pants and still couldn't believe it. This was 45+ years ago and remember it like it was yesterday since it was such a cool experience! [/QUOTE]
