Did it last year on a Michigan public land whitetail buck at 40yds.....and I was a week into rifle season. Our bucks are pretty damn spooky by then too. I was stillhunting my way through a cedar swamp. I had my share of slips and trips in that mess too. It's only as hard as you make it, and had I not gotten that buck because of the fact that I had to chamber a round first......it would have been OK.
Bout sums it up.
