I can't yet, as I'm a shotgun only hunter. The shotgun season is open only 10 days for regular season and I think 4 days for late season in December.

LR is a bow hunter and she's already bagged one, about two weeks ago. She will be getting more, however.

She's also bagged two turkeys in the past couple weeks.

Now that's a deer stand! And what was in the hot tub? Boiled Venison? Oh, wait... never mind.

HeavenlyOne might explain that with a "shot gun" she's probably not using scatter shot as some might think, but slugs in a shot gun cartridge. And by saying "not the heart and lungs," I thinks she means to imply that she's a good shot.

LOL!

LR is a better shot than I, and you will see in about a month that she is a deer magnet too!

Season opens Nov. 17th!!

Thirty more days. The countdown is on!

And no, I don't use scatter shot. That's not allowed here.

Wow! What a deer stand...

(for pansies that is, but I didn't say that, I only typed it!)

YES I'm a tad jealous. I'd be more jealous if that stand were in Wisconsin.

Name of Product: Kong Maxx Ladder Stands

Units: About 6,000

Manufacturer: Gorilla Inc., of Flushing, Mich.

Hazard: The ladder stands can become unstable while in use, causing the user to fall. The addition of one ladder section to the stand makes the platform further away from the bracing. When the stand is at its full height, the distance between the bracing and the platform may result in platform instability prior to attachment to and/or detachment from the tree.

Description: This recall involves Gorilla Kong Maxx Ladder Stands with model number 43032 and batch numbers G051507, G051507D, G061507D, G071507D, and G081507D. Model numbers are printed on the box only. Batch numbers are stamped on the vertical rail of the first ladder section. The stand is 19-feet to the shooting rail, or 16-foot 8-inches to the platform. The foot platform measures 17 ½ -inches wide. This is the only Gorilla, Inc. ladder stand with these dimensions.

Sold at: Gander Mountain stores nationwide from July 2007 through September 2007 for about $180.

Manufactured in: China

Remedy: Consumers should immediately stop using the ladder stands and contact Gorilla Inc. to receive a refund.

Consumer Contact: For additional information, contact Gorilla Inc. at (800) 914-4567 between 9 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's Web site at www.gorillatreestands.com (pdf) - consumers can also write the firm at Gorilla, Inc. 3475 Eastman Drive Flushing, Mich. 48433.
