RE: What hasn't happened to you yet?
I've only been bowhunting for about 4 years. I have shot to bucks that were 130", have had second shot(and killed it), I shot my big buck while it was sparring 10 yards away from my stand, have seen deer make scrapes (but not rubs), I have seen a 150" buck! I have heard deer to a snort weeze and grunt. I guess I am truely lucky.

First bow kill drew back and forgot to put my arrow on my rest at that time i was using just a fork tune rest and kept my arrow off to the side where it would not fall off and make any kind of noise. The buck was standing straight on to me at 20 yrds and i had to let the arrow back down he then jumped to the side and gave mea better shot but i had to get on him quik because at this point he was nervous but he was in full rut and looking for the doe he thought was there. I put my pin on him and let the arrow go he ran about 40 yrds and fell over the mathews and 100 grain vortex done the job. This one sided rack buck has a story behind him to from the week before my dad shot him in black powder season and hit him right in the left horn and knocked him out he came to as we were rolling him over. That was an unbelivable event if i had not been there i would not hardly belive it but my boy 4years old at the time can confess to it he was completly freaked out. Great memories for all of us.

Never got a deer with traditional gear - had a golden opportunity from the groundlast week, doe hunting the PA second seasonwith the recurve. As luck would have it, I had a doe at 7 yards, broadside, unaware and feeding. Unfortunately, it was an eight-point "doe." [>:] I admit it. I cussed. A lot. I mean seriously....what are the chances? $%&*#

Never touched a live, wild, uninjured deer with my bare hands.
Never killed a buck with a true droptine.
