I got out of the habit of leaving the safety on once the firearm/xbow is loaded and pointing downrange. No need for it to be engaged unless you move it away from pointing down range. Cost me too many deer in the early years making that mechanical click when I was set to shot.
Congrats on a decent Buck...his behavior sounds like he was in Rut already. How was his neck ? Hard to tell from that angle in the pic.
