its possible I was calmer with the buck then when that doe came in haha maybe I am learning slowly how to keep calm. I was just worried he would see me draw back if I could have drawn back 5 seconds earlier he would have been smoked at 12 yards

had a hell of an experience last night.  i ran the grunt call a few times before sunset.  right around 6:10 i hear a deer approaching, slowly but surely.  he finally shows himself - a 4 or 6 pointer w/ a decent body (130 - 140 lbs).  not shooting this one as i'll go crazy not hunting the next 2+ weeks unless i shoot one of the 8+ pointers i have on the trail cam.

so i take some video of him and let him walk.  as he's leaving, i hear a branch break from where he came from.  another deer.  a couple minutes pass and i hear steps.  then nothing, then finally more steps.  the deer heads right under the hemlock below my stand.  at this point it's about 6:20 - 6:25 and hardly ANY light left.  finally the deer starts moving again and eventually steps out.  a GIANT wall hanger less than 25 yards away.  but there were so many branches and whips from me to him and w/ the minimal amount of light, i couldn't draw.  i watched as the big body slowly walked off. 

hopefully we will meet again soon  :)
