OK-- let's really clinch it: on 11/11/11, we will be exactly 11 feet off the ground in a treestand, shooting arrows that weigh 11gpi, at a deer that comes in at the 11:00 position. We will all wear size 11 boots, regardless of our actual size, and we will endlessly and silently chant "eleveneleveneleven.." That should be as close to a sure thing as possible. Also, only shoot a deer with 11 points. Let me know how it goes.

This is too weird. The weatherman is calling for 11 degrees where I hunt on 11/11/11.  :rolleyes:

CG- Adding 1951 and 60 also gives me 111-pretty darn scary. But will try to hunt this Veterans Day, just as I have in many years in the past, to give a moments reflection to veteran family members and all who have served.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

I will hold the bow back for 11 seconds, on THE 11 yards out, 11 feet up, at 11:11:11A.M. DEER. i will wait for 11 minutes before i start down the blood trail, and I will wait until 11;11;11 PM to call in to the confirmation number.  No wait, I am going to shoot the first deer that comes by next year and I will either be chasing turkeys or pheasants by 11:11::

Looking back on some of the notes I have. On 11/11/09 I took a 5 pt. On 11/11/10 I took a doe. Both of them were taken from the same tree stand standing in the same spot. Lord willing I know where I'll be on 11/11/11.

Sounds like a plan.  11/11/11 sit all day; shoot an 11 pointer at 11:11 AM.  Nothin could be better.  Best of luck.

If I cannot be hunting on 11-11, I will be enjoying 11 bottles of beer.

Dodged 10/10/10 without getting hitched but now the girlfriend wants to get married 11/11/11. Said ain't no way, Veterans day is always peak rut in my area so I'll be busy that day...8^) Have it now postponed at least until 12/12/12...    :)
