Mine was a doe. Shot it out of a shooting house with one of my dad's AU professor friends using a Remington 742 30-06. I was shaking so bad, the scope was blurry, so I put it on the deer, closed my eyes and pulled the trigger. Nailed it!!
When we took it to the skinning shed for his club, one of the members, who knew me and my dad, initiated me. I had deer blood all over my face, neck, head, and it was even down in my ears. I ended up taking off my clothes from the waist up and rinsing off with a hose.
Then killed one the very next day at my dog hunting club with an 870.
