I agree with gaff nice woods.  Way to stick with it.  I think it may be time for a different tree stand. Not only one that's more comfortable but one with better shooting.  But then again by the looks of your picture the one you have works fine. Good deer!   :thumbsup:
Relax,

Thanks everyone   :wavey:   I do want to thank Bowhunter4life for giving me the four blade Zwickey black diamond heads. I had an add out to buy some and he was generous enough to give me some brand new heads. I put my arrows together in late summer taking my time to get them right, this is the first year that I shot vanes, and I'm still amazed at how far the arrow traveled through the deer, I had that head sharp   :thumbsup:

Jim,

Glad you found him ! Reminds me of the time I took a shot at a buck while wearing an old army coat. The string hit the left pocket flap and the arrow went haywire ! Luckly I missed the deer. I thought about it for a minute and grabbed my knife off my belt and cut the pocket off the coat. Don't do that with your harness. Now get back out there I know you have more tags !

I have three doe tags, plus I plan on hunting the gun season with my bow, then I can shoot another buck   :bigsmyl:

Congrats Jim!  Glad it all worked out for the best.  We all run on streaks like that from time to time...  Way to bring yours to a close!

Now start a new streak!  One where everything works as it should!  ;)
