Three feet off the ground in my climber. I was walking a creek bank in and actually had my climber attached to the tree then lost my footing and fell down the bank of the drainage that went into the creek. Didn't hurt myself at all but made a decent amount of noise. I got into my climber and three feet up I see a wake in the creek and stop and see a quick flash of an ear and pull my bow up. Pulled an arrow out as fast as I could and the buck showed his face about 30 seconds later. A nice basket rack 8 point. Let an arrow fly at 15 yards and found him 40 yards away. I guess I hadn't started hunting yet. After that hunt I would never beat myself up if I approached a stand and made a little noise. In the rut, a buck might think its another deer invading his territory!
