Stan

GOOD STUFF!!!!  

Way to go curt let hear the story bud.

YEA BABY!      

Ok...The afternoon started out helping a old friend hang a stand.He's getting a bit"long in the tooth" so I told him if he needed help,call me.He did,so we hung the stand.I was next to one of my old haunts.A spot that Cade and I had cleared about a month ago....

 

When I parked,got my gear together,realized I had forgotten my plaid flannel shirt,and plaid wool vest...DANG!!!! My only options were to either not hunt(I was only wearing a short sleved t-shirt),or wear my scent blocker shirt that I had sealed up in the back.It would buy me enough time,as the temps dropped to get a hunt in.

Got to my tree Cade and I had cleared,climbed up,
time went by,didn't see anything but squirrels.It was one of the quietest and crunchiest days in the woods I've had in a while.I could hear squirrels 100yds away.
At about 5:50 I was startled by a vibration in my pocket!!! Dang..just the cell phone.My wife checking to see when I'd be home.Told her I was getting cold cause I had forgotten some cloths,and I wasn't seeing or hearing anything anyway.Let her know I'd give it a few more minutes,then head out.

It wasn't five minutes later I heard the unmistaking sound of a deer walking...and toward me! Stood up...flipped my LW seat up...got the  arrow out of it's pouch..nocked it..and got ready as the deer got closer.At about 60yds I finally saw it,my Leicas told me it was a buck!!

As he closed I knew he coming just as I knew the deer would at this spot.The trail was close,that's why I was at this spot.As he closed I set my feet,and he continued on the trail.He was broadside at about 5 yds............I just kept thinking...."let him go by a little and quarter away......

Jeeeeez! You're killin' me, not no deer!

   :D   Hope I can stay up to hear and see the pics, have to be at work by 5am  

That is really cool and a great idea Stan had.  I've seen Mr.Clean and he's a nice bow!!

Congrats Curt!

....As he got to the very end of my shooting window....It was time....I don't remember drawing,hitting anchor or anything.I never do at a time like this...next thing I know there 's nothing but the yellow feathers sticking out the top of his nearside ribs!!!

I knew I had him.............

He crashed off for about 15yds..stopped...looked around....started to stumble......and fell over!!
He went a total of about 20yds,and was dead in seconds....I looked at my phone,it was 6:00!!

You wanna talk about shakin'...between being cold(from my lack of clothing) and being so excited about what I had just accomplished..I was a mess!!

Here's the shot...

     

It's hard to see,but if you look close you can see the white of his ear and the glint of his eye from the flash, between the trees.Taken from the stand.....

     

I couldn't get down quick enough,I lowered Stans bow,and threw everything else down! I walked to where he stood,6yds.....First blood....

     

Five yards ahead lay the business end of the arrow...Painted red....

     

Kill'n me.

Come on!! I just got home this!!! Shawn

WAY TO GO CURT!!!!!!

I knew it

If you could add a little about the bow, I haven't heard about this bow and its travels.

Way to go, man!!! for a new yorker your not all bad
