The alarm rang out at 5am this morning. I heard rain pouring down and the wind was already howling. Told myself I’m just not going this morning. I hit the snooze. I woke up again at 5:30am told myself I will regret it if I don’t get my butt out of bed. So I got up, fixed my coffee and headed out. Im blessed enough to be able to leave my house and be on stand in 10-15 minutes depending on which stand I’m hunting. This season has been real frustrating in the fact that I have not been getting the shots I want. Been seeing plenty of deer, just the situation has been wrong.
I was settled in ready to shoot at 6am. The wind was just almost wrong for the stand I was in. But it was blowing so hard I really don’t think it would have mattered. Misting rain and the wind gusting 25mph was starting to hurt my feelings. Sad part is i had only been in the stand 45 minutes and was ready to go. Just five more minutes I told myself. Well at 6:48 returned my arrow to quiver and clipped on my pull up rope, looked around one last time only to see horns coming dead at me.
I quickly knocked an arrow, got turned the direction he was going to cross the fire break. Middle of that process I pulled out my phone and took a quick video. As I stood there waiting I knew the shot was going to be pushing it. I practice out to thirty just for situations like these. Tho I try to keep my shots under 15.
I had tension on the string, picked out a opening and as he crossed the fire break into my spot I let it fly. He never knew what hit him. Double lung pass through. He trotted about 15 yards, stopped then fell over dead. I could not believe what just happened. The time is 6:53. That just show how fast a hunt can change.
So with this story I leave you with some pictures and a few words of advice. If your season is going rough and your getting burnt out, suck it up butter cup. It could all change in A blink of an eye.
