I have not bow hunted for the past 15 yrs with new bow in hand I set out yesterday afternoon to try my luck.Around 6:25 I decided I needed to get going and I had seen nothing for the 2hrs I had been on stand.So I lower my bow grab my gear and start moving my viper down the tree.I make 2 moves and look over at one of my shooting lanes and low and behold there is a 6 pointer staring me down.I could not believe this I am about 20ft of the ground and have no bow.After the stare down he starts eating and pays me no mind what soever.So I climb all the way down grab my bow go into my bag and get my release, all the while making alot of noise,nock a arrow and at this point the deer is still just eating away,and gives me a broadside shot at about 35 yds and I hit the tree next to him......I just can't believe this deer stayed around....I am going this evening to set up on him again....I have to take him I don't want those genes spreading through the herd.
