Happened to me twice. Sitting a 2 man ladder stand. Had an owl fly right at my face with feet first. First time was by myself. 2nd time was with my son. I knew what was coming second time so just made sure my son didnt fall out of the stand. Lol. Owl finally flew off before getting to us both times.

Glad to see I am not the only one this has happened to! The only difference is that I got settled in to the blind and it's dark...here come 2 owls flying in to land in the Windows! Scared the heck out of me!

First time hunting West Texas had a turkey roosted in the tripod I was climbing in. In the dark it does not matter what it is, the scare factor is still there.

Drove all night to get to a buddies deer lease one night. We get there at about 3am. He takes me to a ground blind and said get some sleep when you wake up and start hunting. I left the door open and got as comfortable as I could get and fell asleep. About 10 minutes later I had a dog come into the blind with me. We did not bring a dog with us. When I woke I did not know it was a dog I just knew there was something hairy in the blind with me. I jumped up pulled my pistol and exited as fast as I could. Once outside I turned to fire and notice movement on both sides of me. It was at that time I realized they were dogs. No dogs were killed.

I was on a lease a few years back where a young couple were sitting in an open tree stand during bow season. The young lady had a braided ponytail sticking out from under her cap that extended down past her shoulders and I assume that the hawk that tried to carry it away thought it was some furry meal ready for the taking. She escaped injury but was pretty badly shaken to say the least.
Thursday at 12:45 PM #33 Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.
