One of the thrills of bowhunting is how close deer get. What’s the closest encounter you’ve had where you didn’t get the shot? (For me it was a buck at 6 yards, completely behind brush… still haunts me!

The year before they extended the archery season farther into November. I was out pulling a treestand the day after archery closed (didn't want it up during gun season). I was standing at the base of the tree and heard that leaf crunch cadence of a buck on a zombie march. Turned around and the buck I'd been hunting all season was walking straight to me. He got to about 10 yards, saw me leaning against the tree trunk, did a half circle around me and marched to about 3 yards before he caught my wind and blew out of there.
