Default RE: DUMBEST THINGS WEVE EVER DONE IN THE WOODS?

The funnist/worst thing that I did that was absolutely stupid. Three years ago I replaced my sights on my bow in the early part of the summer. Well I took the bow out every day and shot at least 30 times per day until I was sure that I could hit the little dot on the paper plates I as using as targets. About 5 weeks before the season started I tuned my broadheads up, and had them hitting the same spot every time(had refletch several arrows and retune them). Opening day came and I had gotten a late start, just coming home from work getting ready and all. Got into the woods after daybreak was walking to the spot were I was going to hunt and saw a magnifiant doe walk out and stop broadside to me, 15 yds away. I froze, she did'nt see me. Great I pull the string back settling the 20yd pin just above her right shoulder, I release, the arrow goes about five foot over her back and clatters through the trees. What I forgot to do was turn the sites back around after I took the bow from the case. They are Pse Nova 3 pin dovetail sights.
