aGREE WITH THE SIGNMAN... eVEN BEFORE CAMMO AND ALL THE HIGH TECH STUFF, LOTS OF DEER WERE TAKEN!!! STAYING STILL AND QUIET, AND NOT MAKING ABRUPT MOVEMENTS IS THE BEST ADVICE!! aLSO, IF YOU SEE A DEER COMING, ASSUME HE CAN SEE YOU TOO... ONLY MOVE WHEN HIS IS OBSTRUCTED BY A BUSH OR TREE. OTHERWISE YOU'LL GET BUSTED RAISING YOUR GUN UP.
gOOD LUCK.
PS: AFTER THE SHOT, WATCH CAREFULLY WHERE HE RUNS, WAIT A BIT, THEN FOLLOW CAREFULLY...ASSUME HE IS STILL ALIVE AND ABLE TO RUN 'TILL YOU ARE DRESSING HIM OUT.
