RE: My shortest hunt was...
Many years ago, I signed outfor an afternoonbowhunton a military base inJanuary. About 100 yds from my truck, I wasbackpacking my amacker treestand in the snow, when I spottedthe ear movement~40 yds ahead of me. I could make out a doebedded on an edge, looking away. I knew I could not take off the stand without making noise - taking time, I stalkedto within 15 yds of the doe. I figured that if I could get that close, I'd take the shot (not having practiced with a treestand on my back). She looked back at metwice during the stalk, but never made me out. I drilled her and she died only 20 yds from me. When I went backto the sign-out station,they asked me if I had changed my mind about huntingthat afternoon...
