Deer season

moonshine
A man and his friend were bow hunting deer in South Georgia near highway 129. A huge 10 point buck walked by and the hunter raised his bow to sight in the buck.

Before he could release, his friend alerted him to a funeral procession passing on the road below their stand.

The hunter slowly let off the pressure on his bow, took off his hat, bowed his head and closed his eyes in prayer while the buck walked back into the woods.

His friend was amazed. "Wow, that is the most thoughtful and touching thing I have ever seen. You are the kindest man I have ever known."

The hunter shrugged. "Yeah, well, we were married for 35 years."[;)][;)]

    So far, bow season has sucked and gun season isn't starting off that well either. (Whine!) Now I know that you guys are going to start telling me about all the wonderful deer you have killed this year. Be gentle. The one I missed during bow season is starting to sting.[B)]

    Tomorrow is the high holy day for lots of people around here. I've never gotten into hunting. I love guns for their historic value, the skill of shooting, the pride in our great freedoms. I'm going to have to stay out of some of my favorite shooting spots now though. Two years ago I went shooting with a new 22 at a friends farm. I had forgotten it was the first day of deer season. After about 15 minutes of shooting I see orange vests moving out of the woods across the fence. Yep, I ruined some guys hunting day. After apologizing, I got out of there. Fortunatly the older guy was understanding, the younger guy looked like he was ready to shoot me and tag me as a doe. Oh well, to all of you hunters, good luck. To the rest of us, see you at the range in a week or two.

    Pass on the tradition, teach a kid to shoot.

    Wish I was going along.
    I am jealous, I live in the south, never have been deer hunting in the snow. That has got to make the tracking easier.

    It does Allen. There is nothing better than following a fresh track in the snow to see what's making it. (And it's harder to get lost in the big woods, with snow!!)

    If you get snow, they won't have a chance![^]

    Pretty smart having a hunting partner that can keep you warm at night![^]

    Really? many years ago the only way we could deer hunt around here to even get close to the deer was with a 200+hp four wheel drive tractor with 12 ft dozer on it......[:D] that was me and my cousins when we was kids......we didn't have a snowmobile or anything and the old 70's ford f250 4x4...[the ones several feet off the ground] couldn't even get any where that winter.
