Default RE: Looking back...

Really only 2. One slipped in on me and walked through my shooting lanes before I had the opportunity to shoot him. I grunted to him a couple times when got about 70 yards out, but it didn't work. That was a 120 class 8 point.

This one hurts. I hunted the morning, had some errands to run, so got down around 10. At straight up noon I climbed back up my tree. I no sooner got to hunting height when a 140 class 10 point ran a doe directly under my stand.....Yeah, that's right. My bow was still on the ground, I hadn't even been able to pull it up yet. And yeah, he stopped perfectly broadside at 15 yards......Didn't have a clue I was there......Just to rub it in a little, he came back several minutes later and was w/in 20 yards, but never stepped into the clear.....I still have tears over that one.....
