  1. I use to pack up and leave when it started to sprinkle / rain . As I would leave the area , I would drive past some fields and see deer come out to feed . They may have felt that it was safe to do . Anyway , the last time I bow hunted in the rain was the final straw . I had an 8 point buck come in at about 25 yards in a slight drizzle . My bow grip was wet and when I took the shot , my grip slipped and I believe I hit him in the scapula . I waited a half hour before getting down to check him out . I found part of my arrow but no blood anywhere . I went back and forth through the thickets and never found any sign of him . I gave up after a little over 2 hours of searching and soaked . After that , I always was very careful field dressing or butchering a deer as there could be a sharp blade in the body somewhere and you could get cut real bad .

  7. I am guessing that a 15' stand has the foot platform at about 12 1/2 feet . i feel comfortable at that height . I bought some ratchet straps to replace older ones . At the end of a season , you should loosen the straps a tad bit so as not to gird a tree and allow for the tree growth .
