RE: What Deer Do You Remember Most
The deer I remember the most was a 140 class that chased a doe in on me, Bred her within Bow range and them ate acorns at 20 yards while buck fever had me rattling arrows.....The one that gives me nightmares now was one that I had Muzzleloader difficulties on 2 years ago....that deer was HUGE oh well.....

My first and my last. Actually I remember most all of them since I have all of their antlers mounted.

After only nine years of hunting, I can remember each and every one I've every arrowed like it was yesterday. The most exciting for me was '07 from a make-shift ground blind at 20 yards. That was the most fun and made me feel I knew what I was doing. He wasn't the biggest, but a very memorable hunt.

The one that got away. The one that had me shaking for the next 45min after the encounter. The one everyone I knew said I should've shot at.I realized after that that being on the ground and seeing a monsteris 2-3 fold the rushof being perched high above.

There are several for me. My first deer ever.
But probably the one I will never forget got away. It was probably 10 years ago and I was walking in to one of my stands. Half way there, I looked up to see the biggest buck of my life walking straight at me. I knelt down on the ground and tried to get an arrow nocked. At this point, he was all of 15 yards in front of me and still walking, head down, right at me. He then realized there was something on the trail and stared at me for what seemed like forever. I could do nothing but watch him stomp, spin and snort his way out of there. That buck, my best guess was a 170" animal will be in my dreams forever.

My first kill, bow at that, an 8 pt, hit him right in the femoral artery, run 10 yds. dead as a doornail. What I remember most was the blood, I think he lost all of it in 10 yds.
