A super good hunter told me of a stand to hunt from. When I climbed it the step was rotten and broke. I threw the gun sideways and a nail ripped my side wide open in the dark. I had driven 70 miles here in Virginia and decided to stay. I scaped some oak leaves away from a tree and just sat there bummed out. A few minutes later I heard a door slam. Then a few minutes past I heard heavy walking through the woods. I was loaded with buck shot and had no idea what kind of power they had. I looked to where the noise was coming from and I swear it was the biggest deer and rack I had ever seen.It was about 40 yards away and it was moving broad side between 2 oaks at 3 feet apart. I got buck fever.
