Around 20+years ago, I had set up a loc-on across the road from my buddy's house. We had permission to hunt but I was the only one that had any interest in Bowhunting. I had been watching all the hunting videos avalible back then. I was determined to become a better hunter. A couple months before I bought a used Suzuki King Quad 250. I was in heaven.
I had rode my 4-wheeler to the edge of the field close to my set up and walked the rest of the way in to the stand. About 30 minutes before dark I heard some "clanging" and did not know what it was. After a minute, it dawned on me that it sounded like 2 bucks fighting just like on the videos. I got down out of my stand and eased up back to the field. I could see my 4 wheeler and more comotion was going on on the other side of it. I crawled up to it and could see the deer about 30 yards on the other side of it. I nocked an arrow and got to my knees but could not get a shot because the grass was to high. I slowly stood up to clearly see there was a 6 and a 8 point sparring and what not. I began to draw my bow and one of them spotted me. They bolted into the woods. I did not get one but I've been on fire for Bowhunting ever since!
