dogdoc Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 Well I finally did it----All my gear packed--up at 4am--hour drive to the spot. Dress in the field. Take the bow out of the case. NO ARROWS I had hunted in the rain on my last day out and took the arrows out of the quiver for everything to dry and put a little oil on the mechanical heads--forgot to put them back in. Talk about a stupid move. I just kept staring inside my case expecting them to magically appear---oh well---I went to the stand anyway and didn't see anything but only stayed for about an hour after shooting light. I wanted to leave before anything showed up so I wouldn't feel any worse. I can now be elected the new President of the Moron Club---Buckee, step aside todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mainebuck Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 Re: I am a LOSER..... how bad does that stink. Imagine if a nice deer had come in that hour you were on stand how sick you'd feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missed160 Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 Re: I am a LOSER..... Been there, done that.. Drove to a spot about 90 minutes away to duck hunt. Unloaded the boat, loaded it with decoys lunches, got the waders on and my brother said, "GET THE GUNS".. They were sitting at home on the Kitchen table..

Guest DJR Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 Re: I am a LOSER..... I did something like that, I got up last week and headed out in the am and got dressed and went to get my stand out of the bed of the truck well no stand I had thought some one stole it, after I drove back home (I only across the street) it wasn't there. So I went back over to the field and decided I was going to sit in one of the fixed stands, as daylight came I looked over at the tree I was at the previous night and low and behold there was my climber. I felt like such an **** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gt2003 Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 Re: I am a LOSER..... LOL, glad its not only me that does this stuff. It was 8 years ago, just after my son was born. My wife, son and I drove to my sisters in Guthrie OK so I could bowhunt. Stopped at the archery store in Shawnee, saw some nice treestands and thought.....did I pack mine? NOPE! It was back in Gore OK, almost 2 hours away. Thank god for credit cards and a loving wife. Got a new stand and killed my first buck ever with a bow that weekend. What an experience.

dogdoc Posted October 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 Re: I am a LOSER..... Greg---if i was going to hunt the afternoon i would have headed to tabe's and had a few cut for me so I could hunt.---closer than driving back home. todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gt2003 Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 Re: I am a LOSER..... LOL, he hooked me up with the stand. I betcha he would have cut me some arrows if I had needed them. He's a perfectionist so I'm pretty confident in things he suggests or uses himself. My wife and I spent the night at Phil and Brendas home a year or so ago. A great experience. Got up the next morning and shot 3D at the course they've set up at their home. A good weekend. Hopefully we can do it again soon. If you stop by Tabes tell him Greg Thomas from Gore said Hi. I like hunting in that area but live quite a ways away and wouldn't do it for just a 1 day hunt. Maybe I can make it to my sisters again this year. They live in Mulhall now, right by where I shot my first deer. I may have to make a roadtrip. They've got many small farms with winter wheat in that area so I'm sure deer would be plentiful. I guess I've gotten too complacent in my area so I'm not as apt to travel now. Maybe I should make it a priority this year. I'll let you know if I do. Maybe we could hunt together for a day or so.

AaronS Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 Re: I am a LOSER..... Fortunately I've only forgotten my bow rope so far, but I did get my stand and everything else loaded on my back a couple of weeks ago and left the truck for a 1/2 mile hike to the woods.....after 100 yards I realized I should turn around and get my bow.

Rhino Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 Re: I am a LOSER..... I haven't done that yet Todd. I did forget my release one afternoon so I was a fingers shooter. No problem there though. Just wait on them to get a little closer. We might have to have a debate over the President of the Moron Club.
