RE: Ever dropped anything from your treestand
Saturday....I dropped my cough silencer....and left it laying.
YESTERDAY.....true story...I got to the woods next to my house and had my climber with me. I realized halfway there that I didn't have my tether line (I'd let my sone use the climber....and he put it in his pack), so I decided to get in some good cover and only go a VERY short way up the tree. Well....I get up in the tree about 10 feet.....and start to pull up my bow. I'd forgotten to attach the bow to the haul line.
Back down the tree.
I sat there and decided that this wasn't the best scenario....and that I was gonna get busted.....so I got down and went over to my lock on stand already in place (and also with a tether in place). I sat there for 30 minutes.....and nothing seemed "right". First time I've ever felt "weird" in the field, like that. It was 4:15.....and I climbed down and walked out. I can't explain it.....but I needed to leave.
Happy Thanksgiving.
