Ok, Gotta Razz Tim Salters (Tsalt) here a little bit! I am sitting at my office and wishing I was out hunting on this beautiful November day. All of a sudden, I get a text from Tim asking me to examine this picture and figure out what happened. LOL, I sure needed the good laugh. Lots of us have probably been there. I wish I was in an area tree stand with my Binocs watching him haul the ladder out into the woods to retrieve his arrows! This was too funny not to share. You can even still see the Raccoon up in the tree laughing at him too. I won't mention how many arrows he had to go retrieve behind the tree   :bigsmyl:

John, I thought it looked like a squirrel too, but Tim assures me it was a raccoon.

I am also going to assume the Raccoon climbed higher in the tree once Tim started shooting, surely he did not miss by that much  :p    :biglaugh:    :p

Oh, as if a guy that sticks that many arrows in a tree can tell the difference between a squirrel and a coon.  I'm thinking some new spectacles are in order...just sayin'  :)

haha... well I guess I join the conversation since I'm the guy who flung all the arrows.      :knothead:

And yes, that coon did move up the tree Ed!    :biglaugh:

Haha... Well if glasses would help my shooting I would quickly buy a pair.  No, I see fine... it's hitting what I'm looking at that is the problem!    "[dntthnk]"

Coons are tough too. I once shot one in a tree. Blasted an arrow right under his arm pit and right through him. He fell about 5 feet and wedged in the crotch of the tree. Great... no branches for about 15 feet and I'm no monkey. I decided to bring a ladder the next morning. He was not in the tree and no where to be seen!!!
