Have you ever caught another hunter hunting your favorite hot spot while you weren’t there?
Well, I decided to run out and sit my tri-pod stand on a mowed opening along a marsh for a quick afternoon bow hunt. The stand is bounded to the west by waste to chest high grass and a creek drain. The hole area is a wildlife meca and anything that walks or crawls can be found there.
I was quietly slipping along the edge of the high grass when I walked up on a hunter lying in wait not more than 25 yds from my stand!
The bad thing is he’s a free loader that won’t even help pay his share of the lease. He gets to hunt 24/7, while I am work. You can imagine I wasn’t to happy to see this guy hunting practically in my stand!
I decided I would take him out! I sized him up. He was pretty big and not without weapons. It came to me that jumping on him might not be the best idea, I’d better just shoot um.
I had just happened to come up on the back side of his hide and he didn’t have a clue I was there. Not wanting to waste a perfectly good set of broadhead blades, I quietly slipped the set out of one of my Muzzy missiles. I knocked the shaft, drew, put my first pin on his neck and let him have it!
Perfect shot! I pinned him to the ground right where he sat!
Here’s a picture of the sorry sucker in case you run into one of his kind.

This place has some big snakes! You better keep one eye on the ground around here!
Good Hunting,
