I had a doe come that close to me this past hunting season. I hunt on the ground and she never touched me but was only 3-4 feet away from me looking at me trying to figure something out. I was sitting there in a lawn chair that sits only 6 inches off the ground. I also had a spike about 6-8 feet away and then the spike and a 6 point clank horns 12-15 feet away. I know how they feel. It is cool as all heck!!!
