2nd day should of stayed home.....
« on: September 03, 2009, 10:14:27 PM »
After changing a trailer tire, getting stuck on a dead end road that went threw the week before.  Then the best part started a spot and stock on a nice buck, started down the hill about 70 yards from it i stepped in a yellow jackets nest and was swarmed.  Was stung 7 times this all before 11 am.  went home next day woke up hands swollen big enough couldn't get gloves on or even my tru fire release.  went to doc,  was put on a steroid treatment.  Going to take son in the morning and try again.

That's alright.  It means that, when you do finally get one, you will have earned it.  Some of the deer that I'm most proud of aren't the biggest that I've shot but they are the ones that I worked hardest for or went through the most to get.

Good luck to you...leaving this minute to go hunt some deer for a couple of hours before work.

Keep your head up, in a year your going to look back on that story and laugh your a$$ off.  I am, been there done that!

That is the best part of hunting, not just the kill but the experience.
