I know some of you girls are gonna think this is sick but I've been raised doing this and I love it. I went hunting today with Dan and my mom. My brother dropped my mom and I off at a coulee, which is like a little valley with a stream going through it and a bunch of brush, for us to sit on the side of the ridge while he "pushed bush" for us, which means he makes the deer move toward us. We sat there for about 15 - 20 minutes before a bunch of mule deer came grazing about 100 yrds away. I let mom go first cuz this would be my first deer and I was having a hard time with positioning. So she took a shot and got the first one on the ground. We cleaned it up and got it in the truck and decided we would go again because there was another herd coming through the coulee and I still needed to fill my tag. Dan and I dropped mom off this time to push the deer towards us and then we went right into the coulee to wait for them. Almost as soon as we got into the coulee we saw the deer coming but they were running away from us. All of the sudden they stopped, turned and started running right towards Dan and I in the middle of the brush. I couldn't stand up because they would see me so I just sat on my knees until they got about 25 yrds away. Then they stopped and looked in the opposite direction of where I was kneeling so I took advantage of this and got a doe in my sights and I took her down with a headshot. She didn't even go anywhere she just dropped. Believe me, I was pretty excited and it took a minute for it to sink in that I got one. lol Here is the picture to prove it.
