Missed a nice one

(1/2) > >>

Pappy:
I know none of yall ever missed a deer so I guess I am the first. ;) :) :) I was in the stand
yesterday morning and about 15 till 7 am I had a nice big body 8 point come in on me,he caught
me off guard,I had been watching a little opening in front of me and when I saw him he was 30 yards
out and closing fast.It was just good shooting light and my bow was hung in the tree without
an arrow nocked. O well not very prepaired.By the time I got my bow and an arrow nocked he was right there at about 8 yards and fixing to go behind a big oak and then no shot so I had to rush a bit
and shot right over his back.He ran off about 30 yards and looked around and then just feed on off.
The funny thing is everyone that has hunted that stand has missed at least one deer and some has
missed several.maybe it's the stand.Ya right. ;) ;D ;D Maybe next time I will win,he won the first round. :)

The Singing Bowyer:
Well. if everyone is missing, he probably thinks it's safe.... maybe he will be back!  ;D

Sparrow:
 Seems the keyword there was "Rushed" does'nt seem to work for me either. How long is your season Pappy ?   Frank

JackCrafty:
