RE: Lots of bad firsts
You must be related to my partner. He' d forget his head if it wasn' t attached. We' ve got a lot of good laughs at camp on his account.
Here, I' ll give you an example....
One day he forgot his hoist rope. He climbed up his sticks and hooked a bungie cord to the bottom of his stand, hung his bow and climbed in. After the hunt he hooked the bungie back to the bottom of his stand and also to his bow and let go. The weight of the bow extended the bungie and when the recoil happened it shot his bow about 10 ft above his head just like a sling shot. Now' s where it gets good, he not thinking decided to try and catch the bow. He takes a step forward and is now hanging half off his stand by his safety strap. His feet were still on the platform and he was just leaning forward off the stand with his arms out flapping like a bird. His weight wouldn' t allow him to reposition himself without falling completely off.
He never did catch that bow! It kills me everytime I think about a bungie cord!!!!
Things will get better.
