Thanks again fellas! I was slightly stunned when I actually watched the deer fall in sight. I asked myself, "Did that just happen?" I could hardly believe it after so long. A blessed day for sure.

Congrats on your first Trad kills. My Dad always says "if old permanent stands could talk." We've hunted old stands but always repaired or replaced the platforms.

I should note that the stand was repaired last year by another guy that hunts with a crossbow. Since he doesn't need any limb clearance vertically, he kept the stand in the original design when he replaced a few parts of it. He doesn't hunt there very often, but I sure don't know why. He told me to hunt it all I want. That is an excellent site with the apples and white oak in the same vicinity. If I can get a deer out of that stand with my 62 inch recurve then anything shorter would be super! I might be able to sneak inside the stand if I had a 48 inch bow. I'm not a huge fan of bows that short though. Nothing wrong with them, but I'm not a fan.

And yes, it feels like the weight of the world came off my shoulders. A great feeling!

This is indeed...what traditional archery is all about.

The "weight of the world" being off your shoulders is a feeling you can put to rest forever.

Thank you for sharing this story...  :campfire:  

Many happy returns of the day!
