bbarnhart20 Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 Well, got out early and up to my stand hook up my bow, climb, go to pull my bow up and it gets stuck on one of my tree-steps. I climb back down un hook it and climb back up, pull my bow up and go to grab an arrow and my arrows fell while i was un hooking my bow. I climb back down and get my arrows then get settled in. About 20 min. later i had deer on me and there were deer around me ALL morning. Saw 3 does, a button buck, 8pt., 5pt., and a 4pt. The 8pt. was a shooter but never presented a shot, i could have shot every other deer but him but passed. The 5pt. worked my mock scrape and one of the does urinated in it. All in all it was an exciting morning. Hopefully next post will be about a kill!! Good luck everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bowhunter56 Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 Re: Opening day in WV Thought you would be tired going up and down, and your day would turn out crappy, but sounds like it was a good day, and a good tree to be in, good luck.

deerslayer2295 Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 Re: Opening day in WV I went out opening day in the evening. It was so windy, that you couldn't hear a thing. With so many leaves on, I didn't see anything either. When I came out of the woods, I saw about 12 deer. Oh well plenty of days left yet to get a deer.
