[QUOTE="elcaBob, post: 1881371, member: 3143"] My best shot came the only time I ever got myself a whitetail. I was in N. Georgia. I was hunting in a stand on the edge of a big (200 yard across) clearing, and was about 15 feet into the wood line. From my right, a nice, juicy, 9 point buck puts his head between the bottom and middle row of barbed wire fence about 20 feet from my tree. He stopped with his head only through the fence and looked right up at me. It was cold and I started breathing through the left side of my mouth so he couldn't see the frost that was shooting out with each breath. He came on through the fence and headed from my 4 o'clock to my 11 o'clock. He was so close that he was just a blur in the scope. I couldn't get to him that way, so I cranked the rifle to my off (left) hand and shot him using the iron sights. Dropped him deader'n a door nail right in his tracks. [/QUOTE]
