RE: Ever been attacked by an animal?
6am, foggy fall morningand walking up hill. I'm carrying my ladder stand to the oak flat on top of our property (leased land). I hear a snort, figure it was a deer. Kept walking. I hear two more snorts, oddly enough they are getting louder. I probably can't see more than 12' in front of me because of the fog. Kept walking.
I broke the top edge of the oak flat and through the break in the fog, I see a bull at full chargeat 40 yds coming straight for me.
Dropped the ladder stand and jumped as high as I could into the surrounding trees.
Next thing you know, I am up in a tree with the bull pacing below me. 6 or 7 minutes later he got bored and left. 45 minutes later I got down out of that tree and changed my shorts.
