2nd chance buck!

[buckhunter]

So much for the deer Gods. I hunted one deer all season, a 11 or 12 point non typical. My hunting partner saw him in early November and almost fell out of the tree he was in. We Saturday I saw him at about 40 yds. I drew my bow, settled the sites on him and released the string. Arrow was true and heading right for the lungs. Then out of nowwhere a small branch about the size of a pencil "jumped" out in front of the arrow which deflected it just enough to miss the spine by about 1". I got the high sign. Oh well he will be bigger next year.
