Default RE: first timers

well, I don't have the time to type THAT much, but in a nutshell here is the only bad hunt I have had. sat a loc on for several hours and didn't see a thing (this was after two previous years flying in from san diego and not killing a deer) decided to take my stand down...well, i missed my second step and tumbled about 22 feet to the ground. I snagged one tree step under an arm, and after I woke up (and couldn't breath) I realized I was pretty messed up. at the hospital, they said I had a concussion, 4-5 fractured ribs, two seperated shoulders and a nice 4" cut on my right leg. Yeah, not a good time. messed me up for several months. It was anything but fun walking to the truck to WAIT for my buddy who had deer under him. we had decided not to take the walkie talkies.
