i have a story that happened to me this year(03) after i had tagged out. i wasnt bow hunting but it shows how good of vision deer have. my dad was still hunting and they decided to go to a certain spot and send me back to go get the truck and pick them up. wel while walking back, i had to cross a few smaller sized canyons. in one of these i jumped a mature doe. instictivly, i dropped by a bush, but i tried something i had never done, i let out a mouth made bleeat, it actually worked, the doe stopped dead in her tracks at about 30 yards. she was facing directly away from me, remember i am kneeled beside a bush in full camo. i slowly reach for my binos and lift them up to see if its a buck or a doe. she imedieatly pinpoints me! i moved slow and she had me right away! she then bolted and was gone. thats amazing that she was directly away from me, i was camoed up, moved slolwy and next to a bush. just goes to show how good of eyesight they have!
