   Two instances that I recall where it was close quarters for sure . The first was when I was culling goats up Coromandel, my dog had bailed a goat way down in a dirty gully. I was next to a slip...

   Had a young sika stag come into a roar a few years ago. Dropped it from 3metres as it walked around a large beech tree towards me. Still remember the ' oh f#(k ' look on his face when he saw me.

   One of the best stalks I've had resulted in a hind at less than 15 metres, head shot. And on the very same farm, I had sent my mates in various directions so was just wandering along the track away...

   I had a similar experience with a fallow in the Blueys. It jumped up right in front of me and I shot at the back of her head with my M1 Carbine at about 2 metres and she went down like a sack of...

   Because of the areas I hunt (rather than deliberately trying to get close) the last deer I saw was broadside on about 15m away and stood there for 20 seconds or so - but I wasn't the one with the...

    Was walking along a track with real dense scrub on either side looking more ahead than side to side. Mate jabbed me in the ribs and pointed into the scrub on my side. There was a fallow hind standing...

    I can shoot a compound okish to 60yrds. Have taken goats, grouse and vermin with one, but no deer sized game. Not my cup of tea. I have had deer numerous times close enough to spit at but not by...

    A deer at 2 metres. I'm not kidding! Came around a bush and there she was. Can't claim I sneaked up on the animal because I didn't know she was there. In the second between seeing the deer and...
