[QUOTE="Mike Belt, post: 4552294, member: 69"] I've posted this before but here goes again. A deer drive I wasn't a part of. I knew the lay of the land and circled around behind the drivers. I climbed a tree almost where the drivers had started. It wasn't long and I could see antlers coming my way. The buck stopped behind a pine 30 yards away and was pulling honeysuckle out of the tree and munching away. He had antlers going everywhere and looked to be at least a 20 point 200" buck. I couldn't see his body but I could see his head. I kept my crosshairs on the white circle around his eye but never squeezed the trigger because I didn't want to possibly screw up his head. Wind was in my favor and I never moved a muscle. I figured he'd step clear any second. He didn't. He backed right back up into the thicket of pines he'd come through and I never saw him again.
