[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1338021, member: 101755"] About 7 years ago...right before Christmas I was bowhunting in western Texas. We had warmer than normal weather so I grabbed my bow and headed to my feeder. Got there and the wind was out of the wrong direction. So I found a large oak to climb. I was able to get up about 18 feet. Standing on a large limb...leaned against a large dead limb. It was as big around as my leg so felt it was ok. Well it broke after about an hour of standing there. Fell onto some broken limbs and rocks...back of shoulders/head hit first...I never lost consciousness but was dazzed for a second...my first thought was to quickly as I could find all my arrows. I know you can't feel a broad head so I wanted to account for the all. It took about 10 minutes to get up...it was prime hunting time so I stood by the tree. It had plenty of brush around it to continue to hunt. I had a doe come in about 30 minutes later but hurt too bad to draw my bow. She busted me trying to get it drawn. When I got to my truck it took a long time to get in because it was too high it get in easily. Drove over and picked up my wife... No lasting damage...major headache for a few days... [/QUOTE]
