The infamous last drop came into effect to tonight.
To make a long story short Dutch treed in deep along thunder creek and of course he was on the other side. We found an old missouri crossing about an 1/8 up creek. Dutches tree was 3 big cotton woods that came out of the same base and he was up in the crouch just out of reach hanging out a little ways over the water, so I tried stepping up on the side of the tree to reach him and slipped and went flat on my back in the creek. The bank was about 6 feet up and straight down and there was no stopping myself I just went flying off that **** thing. Had to swim my a$$ out, it was only about neck deep and found that because in a panic of splashing around since I can't swim anyway and the fact it was colder than hell I went to the wrong side and had cross back to try and get him again. SOB had 4 coon in that tree and I never got to shoot a one. Then Jason and I had to wait for about 20 min standing out in a feild freezing while scott got his dog off tree. There wasn't one inch of me not wet and frozen I went completely under. Oh and we were over a mile from the truck. Man did everyone get a laugh over that one. Had two of my high school students with me that like to go along and the only thing they said was they couldn't wait to get back to school to tell everyone this one.
