So, it was in the middle of the afternoon and my brother and I found 6 bucks bedding down across a canyon about 200 yards away. We were on one hill and they were across the way on the other, and they knew where we were. We decided to try and stalk them anyways. I walked down the canyon far off to the east and came back tracking behind them. My brother Jon hiked down the canyon just a bit and waited while I went around behind them. It took me awhile but I finally got 30 yards behind them, but they were completely blocked by thick junipers and I couldn't see them at all. I finally saw some movement and saw two legs under a tree. They were facing towards me so I knew they saw me. I pulled back my bow and waited a minute to see if the deer would move into view, but it didn't. I leaned ever so slightly to the left to get a better look on the deer, but they all took off and ran towards my brother. I still couldn't even see them at all it was so thick. I kept my draw, but none came into view. I started down the hill and my brother yelled up to me that he shot one. I was like yea right, cuz he always lies about stuff. I didn't believe him until we walked 30 yards over and saw this 30.25 inch 3 by 4. I was so pissed I wasn't able to get a shot off at this beauty, but was happy my brother was able to get it.
