Default RE: Bragging board.... Your "biggest" accomplishment ?

Mine has nothing to do with what I did but rather what I didn't. This year while on the ground in the snow expecting only to see does, a Cabela's buck (B&C)tip toed towards me at last lightunknowingly. At 25yds I had the bow drawn at him and waiting for him to turn because he was at a direct frontal view. He never did turn until he realizedwhat thatthing trembling in thebushes was.... me.

Knowing my personal limits and not hitting the release because the nature of the shot was very low percentage took more discipline than what it took to harvest the mature buck of 2 months prior. If you don't know temptation, you will after something like that.I think I went home a hunter that January day of this year.
