#1 buckshot at 10 steps. I was 10 years old, first time on a stand by myself. There was no such thing as "still hunting," only running them with dogs. I heard the dogs bringing him and didn't appreciate how close they were until the old boy popped out of the woods right in front of me. We were so close that our eyes locked and he froze for a split second, broad sided, just long enough for me to get off a shot. I can still see his eyes like it was yesterday. My second shot missed as he wheeled around and headed back the way he came from. We found him about 20 yards inside the woods.
