[QUOTE="yme, post: 1137054, member: 8113"] My brother and I were walking out of the timber one cold morning after an ice storm. As we rounded a corner there stood the deer of a lifetime about 300 yards down a logging road. It was beyond my brother’s gun so I pulled up and one shot and down he went right in his tracks. I was on cloud 9 with the buck and the shot until we got to the buck and it was only a fair 8 point. We both agreed that was not the buck we saw and that he was the only one there but there he laid. We scouted around for another blood trail and tracks but there just wasn't anything. I backed off down the line of my shot and noticed the ice hanging off a limb behind him. All we could figure out was he had enough rack that we could see the movement of the rack when he jerked his head up and everything else was the tree behind him. That deer ground shrunk 100 inches in the time it took to walk to him. The best/worst with my bow was sitting in a ladder stand and was just starting to draw on a doe when a squirrel jumped from another tree to my tree and landed just above my head. When my heart started beating again my bow was on the ground and the doe was looking up at me with a look on her face that said what was that all about. Climbed down got my bow and went home.
