Whats your shortest kill to date?

[N2TRKYS]

I killed a double spur turkey at 4 yards. That was with a shotgun, though.

 

[RyanM]

6 yards. Coyote

 

[Gbrecka]

2-3 yards on a whitetail buck

I had a buddy step off the trail on a steep hillside just before a group of elk came through. He forgot to put his release on and shot a cow at about 3 feet with fingers.

I've shot straight down on a whitetail buck with my bow, horizontal distance zero, so 20'?

Had another one come running in at a full run and skid to a stop at the bottom of my ladder stand looking up at me, so probably similar distance. The trick with that one was I was trying to look through the scope on my 270 WSM and pick a spot when all I saw was brown.... Took a follow-up shot as he was running away though because the first shot went in the thoracic opening, didn't hit any bone or heavy muscle and didn't expand at all.

2 yards on a Javelina with my recurve.....he was on one side of the prickly pear and I was on the other!

20 feet, Whitetail buck . Ruffed Grouse, at my feet...killed him with a shovel when he landed while I was harvesting potatoes . Made for a good meal .

This is a true accomplishment! Who else has a knife or shovel kill? I'm guessing very few!

Three feet from the base of the tree I was in. Doe went straight down, had to step over her when I got down. Dressed her, backed the truck up and loaded her. Was hunting the edge of a pipeline right of way.

 

[WhatToHunt]

Seven yards on a whitetail.

This boss bird April 9th at about 3 yards with a load of 3” #5’s.

My closest was a frontal on a cougar at 15 yards. I was elk hunting and while cow calling this little guy paid me a visit

11 yards on a bush buck in SA from a ground blind.

I've killed deer, elk, and black bear..in the 15-19 yard range from a treestand

 

[Elk97]

Rifle- 4 yds blacktail buck
Bow- 3 yds mountain grouse

3’ javelina. A buddy blew his stalk and sent them all which ways. Running full speed, swung on him with a 357 mag and thumped him right between the eye and ear. He skidded over onto his side about 5’ away and was still running but going nowhere

inside 5 yards out of a blind in Africa on a Waterbok

 

[Joe Holden]

Shotgun - turkey with a 10 gauge 4ft from the end of barrel
Bow - bunch under 10 yards. Closest was a Mule Deer at 6 yards maybe
Rifle - didn't shoot it, but had to raise my barrel so a doe running past me didnt knock it into the tree i was sitting in front of

I shot a bull elk from the ground at 6 yards with my bow. It was exhilarating to say the least.
