Instead of sitting on a tree stand for hours at a time, hoping to shoot a deer with a 30-30 bullet moving at 2300 feet per second per second, I could have picked off the deer with a 2010 Corolla doing 40 MPH, but I guess I was smart and hit the brakes. We were both able to live to see another day. 
It was a little close, not laying down rubber skidding to a stop close, but close. Nice spike buck.
Maxum. nice deer. |
Sounds like that deer was just toying with you. If the deer truly have a death wish you don't get a chance to hit the brake. BTDT.....
