RE: Diary of a hunter lost
Glad you found your way wis, I know about 8 years ago I had taken a couple days off and was out sitting, about 10:30 I was so frustrated that I actuallygot out of the stand.
I got so caught up in everything that I had to do and the fact that I should have been at work that I did not enjoy anything. When my feet hit the ground, I stopped, took a deep breath and thought back about the morning.
I had 8 turkeys picking their way along the hillside at 50 yards.There were probably 10 deer that hung arround the stand for a total ofabout 45 minutes just outsiide of range.A pair of canadas were pond hopping and had been honking on and off throughout the crisp morning. The phone was not ringing,I was not putting out fires or dealing with clients... I realized exactly how fortunate I was that morning, climbed back up the tree and have never looked back!
Every now and again we just need a reality check!
