I know eh, too bad I'm the slow runner haha! Why most of the time, I just stay still and quiet, cross my fingers and hope for the best! That one big dude tho...He was angry! Must have been still stressed from his last human encounter so I can't blame the fellow, plus I may have been standing on his lunch. I agree that it's nice in open fields where you can see everything and know what is there. I like my telephoto lens but I need something with more range, not that it would have helped any safety wise since I didn't know they were there.
