What an awesome morning it was to be in a buddy stand with my beautiful girlfriend sitting beside me. I am dying for her to kill her first deer , and i just knew this was gonna be the morning. We sat til 845 and she said she needed to go pee , so i told her i was about ready anyways because we hadnt seen anything and we have alot to get done today. So while she is on the ground doing her buisness and im getting my pack and gun ready to climb down here comes a big doe casually walking up to the salt lick i put out last year. I thought oh no , i cant shoot this deer , this was supposed to be christinas deer. So with her pants around her ankles i get her attention , lol. Very slowly and as quietly as possible she gets her clothes back where theyre supposed to be and takes a couple steps toward the stand. Well , the old doe happens to catch her movement and immediately starts birddogging christina , lol. At this point im thinking what the heck , nothing to lose now , so i motion for christina to climb ob up. Well this deer just stands watching , and lets her get in the stand and take the gun from me. By this time im pretty sure ive had 23 heart attacks and 17 strokes , just waiting for that big white bye bye. But it never happened . So this big doe is standing here broadside at 50 yards begging to be shot , i hear the hammer come back , and i wait for the smoke , and i wait and wait and wait , then i hear "i cant see her in the scope ". WHAT!!!! Well , old long nose , had finally had enough at that point and trotted off into a thicket , im sure laughing at the expression on my face and the funny noises i was making.

I was pretty ill by the time the dust had settled , so i told christina to climb down before i started crying or cussing or just decided to jump.

I know i make her nervous , but i really want to see her kill one in the worst way possible. And i cant for the life of me understand how some
people have such a hard time finding their target in a scope.

Oh well , maybe she'll get one this afternoon.
