    Great Horned Owls. I don't like the things at all and had to quit wearing a genuine rabbit fur hat because one swooped to close to me while on stand.
    I quit wearing a hat with a tassle on top because of that. Dang owl really ruined my predawn nap!!! I fear raccoons climbing in the treestand with me. I have had them come close but they have always taken off when I crap myself. I guess they don't like the stinkThe only two animals I am actually afraid of are rats and raccoons. I don't really know why but they freak me out.

    I fear the tree I'm in snapping off on a windy day.

    I fear an ADJACENT tree snapping off and clipping me.

    That's about it....
    Me Too!
    That almost happened to me this year! A nearby tree snapped in 40 mph winds and missed me by about 15 feet. Scared the crap out of me!

    And also, the tree steps scare me too now. I've read about people slipping and disemboweling themselves on the way down....

    I have feared my string breaking and my bow falling to the ground. That could be an expensive mistake. Other than that, not too much. It is like as soon as I'm up there, I'm in a completely different world.
