RE: If you could....
ORIGINAL: gzg38b ORIGINAL: Charlie P Wish I had gone every chance I had. Hopefully it wasn't my last season. My back surgery doesn't work I may never hunt again. |
RE: If you could....
I wish I could have one more try at the 150" buck I shot under.

RE: If you could....
Sitting in freezing rain for an entire morning freezing my @$$ off when I could have come out at noon and wouldn't have missed seeing a thing and still would have gotten my buck!
I would also take back the weekends I spent doing anything other than scouting and hunting! |
RE: If you could....
I, like GMMAT, would have like to have back some of the time that I spent roasting on the roost.:D
|
RE: If you could....
I wish i would have scouted more.

RE: If you could....

RE: If you could....
I definitely have an answer:
Keep in mind; I did not get a deer with my bow this season. (My first season) After drawing back on a doe that was probably 15 yards away, I "tinged" my bow on the stand. Of course, she ran........ even after grunt calls from LKNCHOPPERS..... she was gone to not return.... "oh no....i HAD this one." I would definitely take that back....if in any way possible.:( |
RE: If you could....
first season...NOT GOING TO GRUNT when a nice 10 is on its way already...i did it too many times because i was excited and wanted him to come in quick, but he just stopped and circled around:(TRIM branches ABOVE MY HEAD!!! HUGE 12 RIGHT under my stand..pulled the bow back and TAP ..hit a tiny branch but it sounded like a bomb going off in the silent woods:(

RE: If you could....
not muffed up the shot opening morning!!!!!
opening morning, pretty early..like 8am tops...movement in the thicket...DEER...BUCK!! stand...steps out of the thicket...legal 2.5yo 8pt!!! GO TIME!!! he took a few steps behind some trees..DRAW!! was drawing back and remember thinking MAN this is REALLY gunna happen here and now! slam dunk 15yd shot slightly quartering away, close leg extended forward...hit full draw and watched my arrow balance on my riser!!!!! in the heat of the moment, i stood up and drew back in seconds...i never put my arrow on the rest!! i lay my bow down on its side across the front of my Viper..the arrow lays on the riser and falls between my prong rest and my riser unless i put it on the prongs....well...i didnt...he stood there...nothing i could do except hold full draw AND balance the arrow...he started to walk...i let down, renocked and watched him...milled around and gave me a perfect broadside shot, unalert...i thought it to be 25-30yds for sure..but told myself top pin or im not shooting without a range finder...i stuck to my guns...didnt even draw... paced it off later and it was 21yds or something like that....oh well better safe than sorry...pretty sure he made it through...i didnt hear of anyone taking him and my group didnt take him...he aughta be real nice come fall!!! would been awesome though...my buddy was right down the hill on the next farm and tagged his at like 930am...would been awesome to have a opening morning double! oh well...i got mine a few weeks later and am pleased...though smaller, im very pleased... |
