This year was by far worst deer season I ever had. Everything that could have gone wrong went wrong, whether it be the weather, wind, or equipment failure. I've had a very difficult time getting on deer this year. Tonight was the final day for the archery PA season, 5 minutes left to go I heard footsteps behind me. I turned around and it was the Giant 11 pointer I had on cam throughout the season 15 yards away. The position he came in from required me to stand and turn to my right. As I stood the antler bracket made a loud metallic squawk and that was that. I had issues all season long with the original antler bracket, and the new one they released making noises because of how aggressive they were. I can live with mistakes I make, weather moving when I shouldn't have or making a noise I shouldn't have. But equipment failure I cannot live with. I am so sick and disgusted in my stomach i can't think straight. Just omg screw this stand
