i have never taken a deer with a bow.. so with a bow i couldnt say.. with a gun.. about 10 minutes.. and ACTUALLY i have never killed a deer at a stand after about the 30 minute mark.. have taken all of my deer within 30 minutes of being on spot.. most within 15 - 20 minutes.. tho i have seen a FEW within an hour on spot

RE: Shortest length of time to harvest buck.
My FIRST archery buck was a big 6 pt. opening morning at 8:30.
I almost didn't take the shot because he was almost straight down,
but we just bought a new home and I had a ton of things to do.
I should have waited , a nicehigh 8 came in lessthan a minute after I shot. I was still gathering my nerves. I couldn't believe it.

This last year my brother was hunting in one of my stands hes 13 and my dad was hunting about 80 yrds away so he could keep an eye on him its only his second yr. But they over slept and went in at 9 am my brother shot a 4 pnt. buck 10 yrds from his stand in the spine droping it in its tracks and my dad had just climbed into his stand still had his bow on the ground and had yet to put his camo coat on. Fastest for me personally was about one hour.

My quickest was about 45 seconds... literally. I walked to where I was hunting on the ground and I set my pack down and pulled an arrow from my quiver when I heard "the crunch." Quickly there after my arrow zipped through the buck and it was game over. Pretty sweet if I do say so myself.
