Well my first was opening day of the '04 season. I climbed up about an hour before daylight and got situated. Shortly after daybreak I heard that unmistakable crunch of leaves behind me. I turned around to see this beautiful eight point standing 10 steps behind my tree. Man I never knew a heart could beat so fast! He made his waypastme and presented me with a 20yd braodside shot. I put it on him and sent it flyin. I swear it looked like you jerked the rug out from under his feet! All I saw was the deer go down and the arrow go over his back.

I was sick! I finally pulled it together and ended up getting a doe about an hour later. It was fun, but that eight would have made it alot better.
