    Ok follow me here....

    The tree I shot my buck out of in 2002 has since been timbered.
    The tree I shot my buck out of in 2003 has since been timbered.
    The tree I shot my buck out of in 2004 has since been timbered.
    No buck in 2005.
    The tree I shot my buck out of in 2006 has since been timbered.
    Missed most of the 2007 season with a shoulder injury, no buck.
    The tree I shot my buck out of in 2008 has since been cut down.
    The tree I shot my buck out of in 2009 has since been timbered.

    Different properties, different owners and two were from public land.

    Seriously what are the odds???

    Yeah, you're cursed. I guess you better bring one of your fellow bowhunting.com members out with you this fall so the curse can be broken. :evilgrin:

    Best wishes this season.

    All the Best.

    Good example of being able to adapt and overcome. Hopefully the tree cutting will cease. LOL

    Someone's making a shrine out of all your trees. LOL.

    Scott, you have a stalker I think. Or maybe a jealous hunting buddy :D

    Tree ?? Is that a big thing that grows out of the ground with leaves on it ?? :confused: Timbering is the last thing I will ever have to worry about out here. First they would have to find a tree to timber. Good luck with that !!

    You will have to get yourself a stool to sit on to ambush them or start stalking. That is my world. Quite exciting and the tinker gets a good work out when a deer is in range. Love it !! :tu:

    Seriously sorry to hear about them timbering your spots. Best of luck this year !!

    Hate to be unfriendly but stay out of Kansas also, we don't have enough trees as it is.
    All kidding aside, I can't tell you how many Hunting and fishing spots I have lost over the years.
    Right now my home in Michigan looks like a bomb went off around it.

    I'm with Dan, I'd skip the waiting period and break out the stihl myself this year if I dropped yet another toad.

    Odd but consistent streak for sure!
