I walked to my stand late in the AM (a little too much fun the night before). Any way, I stepped into the top of this little hollow and started crunching leaves. Deer went everywhere! Since the sound was echoing around the hollow and I instantly knelt down, I guess they didn't know what was going on because they were running in every direction.

A large doe came right at me. I could almost touch her with the end of my barrel at the shot. I had to jump and move as she plowed right through where I had been kneeling. Shot that doe in self-defense.
