I had something very similar happen to myself this year. While hunting I get a good mature buck to come in. The problem is I expected him on one trail that is exactly 30 yards. Having that in mind he takes the trail that is 16 yards. By the way did I mention that I have taken several P&Y bucks and this one was mature but by far wouldn't of been my largest. I grunt to stop him, anchor my 30 yard pin right behind his shoulder aiming into his opposite shoulder and let the arrow fly. Yes you read that right I used my thirty yard pin on a sixteen yard shot. I missed the buck, he ran off an stopped about 60 yards away. This is were it gets good. While trying to grunt this buck back, which he was responding well to the grunt tube, I neglected to notice the much larger buck that was about 30 yards behind him on the same trail. He stopped sniffed my arrow and promptly busted me in my stand. I was sick. I don't know how many deer I have taken with my bow, but I would of thought that I had never hunted before based on the way I was in that stand.
