Default RE: Your worst hunt stories...

For me one of the worst is when I first started bowhunting--I didnt even have a climbing stand so I hunted from the ground. I laid down some doe in heat scent before sunrise....I had a nice 7 pointer come in on a rope to the trail I was working. He was about 15 yards from where I wanted to shoot broadside. I raised my bow and then....I heard a LOUD grunt over and over behind me. It sent shivers down my dang spine. I slowly turned around and not 15 yards right behind me was one of the biggest bucks I have seen to this day, a massive 10-12 point. I froze. He looked dead at me and acted as if he wanted to KILL me! He then grunted loud and began chasing the 7 point around the edge of the lake I was hunting. Needless to say I shot neither of them!
