Afternoon hunt on private property New Years Day. I had been blind calling with a grunt tube. The temp wasn't that low, but I had been out there a few hours and the wind was blowing enough that I was cold. I had decided to get out of the tree and stood up to prepare my bow. I noticed some movement and saw what I thought was a doe moving my way. I decided to ready myself in case a buck was following her being that the rut was winding down. When the deer stepped into the clearing it was plain to see that it was a buck. He shook his head like a dog several times and began walking directly in front of my tree. It was like he was being lead on a rope. I shot him at 15 yards and immediately saw a wide path of blood come out of the entry side. He ran about 40 yards and collapsed.
