He use to be a large animal vet with a "curious" sense of humor. Very funny guy.

Use to listen to him on WVTF (public radio for the Hokies)

 

Ok, that's funny! This deer wouldn't happen to be related to the fabled 30-point buck?

(Note to self: Don't get roped by a deer)

In all seriousness, my uncle was kicked by a deer he though was dead. That deer put him right on the ground. The kicker? It's neck was broke from a run-in with a car. At least revenge was sweet (and mouth-watering good)!

 

Now THAT was funny! I wish I could rep ya, but the love must be spread about first. Thanks for a good laugh!

 

as the seasons start to come back around ill give this a much needed bump.
best wish to all hunters out there. be safe, be happy and go get ya some.

 

Great story cheezit!

I can actually say that I have roped a deer. I hit one w/ my old van at night (going pretty slow fortunately), leaving a retirement party for a friend. As it turns out, I had broken both of its front legs. Somehow it still managed to run off. A friend and I chased it in the brush for an hour and finally chased it into a ditch and we then were able to rope it around the antlers. Then we had to figure out what to do with it. We decided to call a game warden and see what he said - since it clearly would not survive.

We got ahold of the local game warden and after telling the story to him twice, it was clear something was wrong. In the middle of the third time to tell him the story, he said - "Well crap, I'm not going to get out to look at it, call another game warden". You see it was around Christmas time and he had been at a party for hours - he was feeling no pain! Fortunately we got a few lucid minutes from him and got a number for another game warden.

Well, we thought we would get an answer w/ the 2nd guy, but the story was ALMOST EXACTLY the same as with the first one. These game wardens must be a partying bunch.

The third game warden was sober - fortunately! However he didn't want to get out either, it would have been a long drive for him. After a little "begging", he gave us approval to go ahead and take it. He said if I was stopped, to just have them call him.

The kicker is that the only way I could take it is with a bow - too close to the city and a chemical plant for a gun. My son went home and got the bow and I shot it. We waited till it dropped and we dragged it out. Fortunately we were thinking ahead and we tethered the rope to a nearby post. When that deer finally got dragged out of the ditch, it jumped up - even on broken legs, I do not know how. We would have been toast if it hadn't been tethered.

The embarassing part is that my youngest son took the horns and mounted them and then insisted it be put in my office at work. Unfortunately it was an 8 pt that is bigger than any of my other deer. I always get asked where it was taken ..... always a smart remark about my hunting skills after the story!

 

I shot about a 75 pound doe in Tennessee 2 yrs ago with a 30-30 and side mounted scope. The bullet came in at an angle in front of the chest and blew out the left front leg.It just dangled . You could see the top of the lung and the damn thing still walked/hoped 50yards from were I hit it. It had a huge hole and I had posted pictures on my space but got an email stating someone had complained about the graphic and violent nature of the picture so they removed them.

I get a laugh out of the chili taster. Don't know if yall have read this:

Jokes, Humor, Comedy, Food Funny

 

Thanks for the laugh!

 

thanks for sharing that ... as I was reading, I was wondering when and where this would lead to a 6L issue ... it does beat the old routine !

 

Just as funny as when I read it the first time! Hows the weather down here boys? Went to a wedding this past weekend, re-lived some good times I had with a few co-workers ( over several adult beverages ) and that beautiful truck I used to have. It has been seen in the Ephrata PA area and the new owner seems to be taking care of it from what I hear. Sorry for the hijack, just wanted to say "Hey!"

 

Now that's funny!! All jokes aside I do know a guy that hit a deer with a station wagon back about 15 yrs. ago. He picked the deer up thinking it was dead and put it in the back of the wagon. About 10 min. later down the road the deer woke up!! Long story short the guy pulled off the side of the road and got out(while the car was still going about 10 mph.LOL!!) The deer wound up kicking a window out and escaping off into the woods while the car sat in the ditch running. He had to replace almost all of the seats and stuff in that wagon. Bet he won't do that again!!

 

Best laugh in a long time. reps to you. thanks.

 

This is why you gut a deer right after you reach it!

 

That's about the best story i've ever heard That's why you shoot first ask questions later.I guess this season i will be watch my back more closely

 

Last summer on vaca we rented a house in new braunfels. Needless to say they had deer that were very friendly. They would come to my feet and eat. After a night drinking my wife and I were feeding the deer when she realized what I was about to attempt. My drunk mind had this idea of grabbing this buck around the neck and more or less locking my legs around him. My plan was by being behind the antlers and on his back my weight would drag him down and I would probably have to fight for 10-15 minutes but I would avoid his feet and his antlers and would have a good chance of choking him out pretty quickly. I was poised to pounce and though it was a flawless plan. My wife saw this and knew I was about to do something stupid and thrw up her hands and scared him off. Lol after reading this... I guess we both were lucky she ran him off lol.

 

see now you should distracted the wife first. maybe by saying hold my beer an watch this. then she could have applied for our darwin award. JK teehee
