Default RE: Reminded of a bowhunting blunder..

I had just bought a new climber and was excited about using it the very next morning.I got to my chosen tree at about 5:30 AM hooked the treestand up to the tree and climbed up with no problem ,only one thing that I forgot was to tie the bow string to the climber.Back down I go ,I tie the string and climb back up pull the bow half way up when my bow comes untied and fall's to the ground.
I had never used a climber before so I was getting a little tired of climbing up and down ,but now I have to make another trip down.Finally I get the bow tied right and climb back up but now I've wasted about an hour and a half fooling around with mistakes . As it turn's out I never seen a thing all morning and I blame that on all the noise I was making on practicing with my new climbing treestand . This was a hotspot which I had seen deer on most occasion's that I had hunted here. except for this particular day
