I've only been hunting 6 yrs now. This is kind of a worse tobetter ending . Went down to Shawnee National forest. I barrowed a buddies summit climber.After we got there we picked outour tree we were going to hunt the next morning . The next morning (still dark) I climbed the tree, First I didn't know I was able to sweat like that.After settling inI was pulling up my bow and reached out to grab it and it slipped off..Crash to the forest floor.[:@] I thought I was done for the rest of the trip. So I had to climb down and get my bow.It was a new rope but the clip slid off the end,so I tied it on this time. Climbed back up to about 8-9ft, I was so hot that thats where I stayed.After romoving a couple layers of clothes I cleaned the dirt out of my nocks and rechecked my bow/arrows. I drew it back as slow as I could (looking away), seemed to draw ok.

I did take a doe later that morning at 22 yrds. She went about 30 yrds right into the middle of an old cattle pond. After she was down, I didn't mind walking into the pond.Going 1/4 mile back to truck to get thecamera before dressing her out. Dragging her out 1/4 mile out, mostly up hill. That I kind of stuff I can handle Anyway it was aruff start with a good ending!

The great part is I had a deer to drag out. Lesson learned.... Do not over dress when using a climber
