Deer hunterZ, weigh in plz...

I saw one this morning. And if I had a gun I could have shot it. It was about 10 feet away!! Figures I was workin and not huntin!!

 
I had one litterally following me while bird hunting last week. It was a little bambi just walkin in my footsteps hahahaha she was prob only ten feet behind me just following like I was the dad. Even if it had been today I would have let her go she was prob only 90lbs

 
warm and windy on Sat, basically a waste of a hunting day

when it's windy the deerz can smell you for forever, plus the wind mixes up the smells and gets the bambis all weirded out. therefore they hide out, therefore no sense huntin

later on, nice crisp cold still mornings...mmm, bettre

 
the most i saw yesterday was a squirrel, and i almost shot that with the .270 out of frustration

I'm sure my dad was cranking because is was so warm, he hates it when its so warm. plus if you do kill one, you've got very little time to dress it and butcher it before the meat is no good

I did take out a pheasant with the scoop on Al's STi on the way home from work yesterday

...and I got attackeded by kamikaze partridge, he smacked me whilst I wuz minding me own business passing an S4 on I-95. mangled the license plate and smooshed feathers and gutz all over the A/C condenser. cracked the front splitter too the little SOB...too bad he was so tore up, he might have been a darn good dinner.

 
well then, you understand the term 'if it's brown it's down'
my sube is brown, and looks like it has antlers.

I'll just add a bright orange coat.

I haven't hunted in years. I got extremely sick from venison. Ruling out my own weakness, as everyone who had the same stuff got sick too...even got the brain a bit. Never again. I miss the adventure of it.

on a real scary note. two of the guys that had some, are no longer with us. I like to blame something else, it is easy to do. coincidence sucks like that. Maine is small. dumpsites are big. I knew a grandpa who thought flunder in boston harbor was edible....right into the toxic 80s. it is beyond guessing about maine...and grandpas...

be careful fellas. maybe shoot for sport...

Venison you got sick from?!?!?!? That's something I've never heard of before. I love deer meat!! And I also like eating it because it's so natural and didn't hang in some random meat cooler for weeks on end. I feel that venison is so much safer to east than the beef you buy in the store.

 
saw 3 does last night walking around underneath my stand while i was in it (No doe permit) they didn't even know i was there.. there was a 4th deer off in the woods I could hear it but couldn't see it. Prob ol' mister buck kicking back watching his pootie-tang prance around.

 
deer can get CWD

"Although CWD is a contagious fatal disease among deer and elk, research suggests that humans, cattle and other domestic livestock are resistant to natural transmission. While the possibility of human infection remains a concern, it is important to note there have been no verified cases of humans contracting CWD. "

it is believed to be a prion, which is exactly what transmits mad cow decease, which humans can get and die from!

yes, the buck's early warning system is his harem. they wander around grazing dreaming or whatever it is the girlie deerz do, while the buck hangs back to see what dangers they might scare up. He'll only come out to graze once he's had a good long chance to see that no bad guys are out there.

next time you're in the predicament of seeing does around with a buck hanin' back, watch where the does are looking, they know Mr 8-pointer is out there, and where he is...usually behind you and out to your off side so you can't be stealthy in swinging around to get a shot!

The day of the hunter:

I sneak thru the woods rifle in hand, to a small area, a tree with a stand. I keep my eyes open and stay real still, in hopes that mr buck will come out on his own free will. The hours go by and still not a sight, the days almost over its turning to night. I walk out of the stand cold and sorrow, I'll be back mr buck and I'll see you tomorrow.

 
I can't shoot a deer, I'd feel bad. If they had laser cannons grafted onto their heads, then yes...I probably would shoot one then.

The front half of RallyJeep's unibody has been heavily reinforced, along with the front crossmember. I don't feel nearly as bad whenever they hop out into the road and I plunk one...which happens quite often.

I should start putting little deer stickers on the side like a WWII fighter plane...my kill count.

so far, got six little deer heads drawn on my orange cap, all with X's for eyes...does that make me a "deer ace?"

missed a big doe this morning.... forgot the 500 times my father said "squeeze don't pull"

lack of follow-up shot is making me think of selling my t/c encore

 
Number 7 plunked itself into the side of RallyJeep the other night on my way to go shoot pool. I swear deer have some ingrained suicide instinct...

It was fine though. Jumped up and scampered off by the time I hopped out.
