Default RE: Well, I blew it!!!

Oh I forgot to say, this won't be the last time you blow it either, just part of bowhunting I guess.

I once moved a ladder stand, and forgot to practice with my bow to make sure my shot lanes were ok.

You probably guessed it, but the first time I hunted it, a nice little 4 point went strolling by at 12 yards. I pulled back just when I was supposed to, he comes from behind a bush and bam! My right arm hits a tree and I am unable to turn to the right and let the arrow go! The buck looks up at me, and had a look like he was sticking his tongue out at me.

Oops! If I would have practiced immediately after moving the stand, I would have noticed, and slightly turned the stand...
