Ok my most memorable hunt was back 3 years ago. I was hunting in my spot on my land. The terrain is kinda hilly but has a little valley. I was hunting on the ground and was reading a bit when I started hearing some movement. My thought was "ah, it's probably just a squirrel making some noise" but then to the right of me I looked to see it was a doe. She was about 30 yards in front of me just grazing along and didn't notice me. I just sat there and watched with my hands ready on my bow.
So she slowly moves to the right and starts heading up the trail I came in from starting to circle me. As she was slowly making her way around a tree, I slowly stood up and got ready. She started coming to the right of me on the trail now within 15 to 20 yards in front of me. When she stopped behind a tree, I pulled back and was at full draw ready to let go. She stopped right in front of me, and you couldn't ask for a better placement to release. But just as I was about to let go, my arrow comes off the rest and hits the bow "CLANG!"
She heard it and took off, leaving me ready to throw my bow down the hill lol. Of course the next year I changed bows lol . It was an old proline and couldn't really update it much, but to me that was probably my most memorable hunt. It was just amazing I got that close on ground to a deer and almost got her.
