AWESOME morning and a comedy of errors!(the comedy continues!!!!)page 3

[adkmountainken]

what a morning! got in to my climber and was up the tree by 5:50, stars still bright. well first thing is i should have test run the stand as it was NOISY to say the least,  i had climbed the tree before but did not sit, adjust things or stay long. anyways i got situated, hung my beaver quiver on the tree with a bunjee, DOOH, pulled a Homer Simpson and watched as bunjee fell to the ground!         these things irritate me!         she carried on for what seemed like forever and then walked off with her son. WOW, hearts pumping like Mike Tyson at a beauty pagent! about 30 minutes after this debacle i hear movement behind me, i turn to see another doe take a trail that leads directly under another stand of mine, also same trail the coyote came from. around 10 i see a deer coming from my lefdt, a nice doe all alone. she gets to with in 30 yards but no closer and wanders off. ujust a little later i hear brush busting and leaves crunching in fron of me. i get ready, shurly this is a brusier buck! out pops 2 golden retrievers, DOOOHH!!! i wait untill they are out of sight and got down to move stands. got a big platform API in this tree now. going to give it a fews days off and be back for round 2!!

I've had those morning's before. But it sounds like you had a very entertaining  morning.  
Good luck!

[adkmountainken]

wouldn't change it for the world, this is why i hunt, oh what a thrill! i don't even have the slightest twinge of a cold, just couldn't hold back that cough! absolutly loved every minute of this hunt.

[Peachey]

Sounds like you had a interesting morning, my vacation starts tomorrow, I'll get to hunt 3 weeks straight. Life is good.

[Wannabe1]

Ken, next time just wear your big red nose and size 25 clown shoes. That way you'll just feel at home with the antics!      

[adkmountainken]

Wannabe,
      hope we get to hunt together someday, i think we have a lot in common, as i said before you would fit in well with the NY crew!
 Peachey,
           i am on 3 weeks vacation too!

[woodchucker]

[adkmountainken]

yikes, ya were in the dam new tree stand weren't ya!!!!! come on out with it!!!

[Brian Krebs]

Ken
    Sounds like your having fun; and that is the most important thing !

 I have had the cough thing happen to me- and sometimes I think its because when I see a deer coming and slow my breath; or start breathing through my nose - which somehow leads to a cough.

 All part of the fun    More to come !!

     

[adkmountainken]

Brian,
      i really couldn't believe i did that. i had the yote dead to rights and was thinking about a warm, fur hat!  

[Wannabe1]

Ken, wear the hat...try the meat...just don't go yelping at the moon. You'll never get the deer to come in range then!    'Course, if you was a bad singer to begin with, yelping might be more soothing to the ears!  

Keep having fun out there and stay safe. Someday I might just take you up on that offer. The National Guard has some schools and conferences that happen in NY from time to time. Might sign myself up for one.

[adkmountainken]

i had a great hat from a yote that i called in and killed with a rifle. a good friends little daughter took a look at it and loved it, couldn't resist, had to giveit to her!
 

[Wannabe1]

Great gesture! Hits me in the ole soft spot. Hope you are able to connect on another one with a good pelt. Did you make the hat yourself?

[adkmountainken]

nope, i sent it to Arnold fur's and they made it for me, pretty resonable prices. i REALLY want another one and a longbow kill would be awesome. i'm sure i could get one with the smoke pole but i might hold out and wait to see if i can connect with longbow.

[TNstickn]

Awesome morning Ken, love that hat. Sounds like your all over'em. All that is doing is buildin up your Karma for the Big'un!!!  

[BMN]

"hearts pumping like Mike Tyson at a beauty pagent!" - Now that's funny right there! Great story Ken.
