Mental or physical?



Just kidding......Nope. Just some routine soreness from drawing the bow a lot.

Not while hunting...(knock on wood) but I'm no stranger to injuries.

Nothing beyond the occasional minor cut or scrape.

Let's see... I've cut myself with my knife while I was in the stand on accident. Another time, I was walking to my stand for the first time, didn't see this hole that was there, and tripped. I was lucky in didn't break my ankle. My leg hurt that day and the next.

Another time I was under dressed for the weather. It was 19 degrees outside, and I was dressed for 50 degree weather. I sat my stand, and didn't get any sun the whole morning (tower blind). I was freezing in the shade.I've never shook so much in my life. ESPECIALLYwhen I saw these 2 does come hauling butt out of nowhere (middle of the rut). Under dressed + buck fever = Chris about to have a heart attack!
