MCH Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 What a hunter says....and what he really means. Was sitting in the stand this morning and thought up a couple of these. Thought it would be fun for everyone to add their own. For example: What a hunter says.....what he really means. I missed a monster this morning!.......I shot at a forked horn buck and missed but you weren't there so how would you know. It was perfect deer weather this morning........I froze my dang butt off! After I shot him, he only ran 20 yards............Actually, I watched him run 20 yards but ended up following the blood trail for 200 yards. I put a pretty good shot on him but hit him a little further back than I would've liked..............I got nervous and ended up shooting him in the butt. When the rut is on, I hunt all day.........Except for the 5 hours I spend back at camp, drinking beer and napping. He walked by broadside at 20 yards, I grunted softly to stop him, placed my pin right behind his shoulder and squeezed the trigger slowly......He came running through my shooting lane at 40 yards, I held two yards in front of him, closed my eyes and punched the heck out of my trigger. He field dressed over 200 lbs......He was 125 soaking wet, but noone else was around to verify the scales. I had a 160 class buck skirt me at 75 yards.....He was only in the 90's but with his potential I'm sure he would hit 160 in 4 or 5 years.

MCH Posted November 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 I've never had a deer blow at me.........I've had a bunch that blew while running AWAY from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunterbobb Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 I got no problem taking shots out to 300 yards or farther. -------- I've never shot anything past 150 yards. I'm just a real poor judge of distance. :gun2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubledrop Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 I shot at that tree to try and turn it so it wouldnt run on the neighbors property......... I just flat out missed and hit that tree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttinbuc Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 He came in on a string......a string that went around the bean field, through the bog, behind the barn, up the two track, to the stand. He locked up sixty yards out from my decoy not knowing what to make of it and took off.........He locked up at 60 yards and then turned tail after surveying the situation and spotting me sticking out like a sore thumb in the only leafless tree in the fence line.. He was just a step away from getting an broadhead run through his lungs but went back into the thicket........Well actually he never came out of the thicket. The blood trail was so wide Stevie Wonder could have followed it........ I was on my knees for 300 yards looking for pin drops ........or the other way around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunt or be Hunted Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 I shot and missed, He looked back and wondered what happened, Then ran. He looked back at me and said "HA! Ya missed me" And kicked dust in my face! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCH Posted November 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 When I'm on stand, I rarely move.......Unless its to spit, stand up, text, check facebook, or because I'm bored. I've never shot a running deer......Tried, but couldn't hit the dang thing. I normally get to my stand 30 minutes before daylight every morning.......Except those mornings that I hit my snooze 10 times....which is almost every morning. I would never shoot a fawn with spots on it......And pass up a deer that gives me little white dots to aim at?? Yeah, like that's happening. You can't eat the horns!.......Nope, but who the heck cares?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 "Why would I text? If I want to talk to you, I'll just call you..." "Bearded ******* 100 yards from me....wt* ..." Oh, Tom's gonna have fun with this one. Sure glad the horse's *** wouldn't fit this thread at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 I saw 1 dink.... I saw 20 deer from your stand, and 1 of them will probably clear Booner status... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkneck Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 "I'll probably hunt Saturday morning and be home later in the afternoon." (I'll see ya sometime Sunday night) I've used this one a lot.... Funny Kevin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Givan Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 I saw 8 does tonight......actually I had 4 come thru and then 30 minutes later they circled and the same 4 came thru again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCH Posted November 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 I messed up on one.... Can't eat the rack!.......All I ever see are dinks but if I was to ever see a big racked buck, I'd definitely shoot it! When the temp's drop below freezing, snow's falling and the wind's blowing 15 mph, that's my favorite time to hunt......................Out the window of my warm truck! Yes, I shot this state record buck legally with my compound bow............Never owned a bow in my life, shot this booger with my .223 while my buddy held the spotlight.

Dawg Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Only 140 or better...........I just shot a scrub because it was on my property. Well what had happened was he slipped around me and I didn't get a shot......................I was asleep in the stand and woke up just before sun down.

RangerClay Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Steve Kane Special! Really! I killed a deer with my bare hands and a buck knife. I was off my meds. What was i thinking? Kids don't try this at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kids don't try this at home. ROTFLMBO...probably True too! )) Shoot, Shovel, and Shut Up....................if you shot my Dog running a Deer I would cry like baby. How's that new Lock-On stand doing for you on the family farm good Buddy???...............I'm going to keep begging you until you invite me to hunt there you scumbag. I buy a New Bow every year because it's the Best Bow availible on the market..........I dont spend enough time learning to use the one I already own. I shot this morning at the Big 8 with a drop but just as the arrow got there he stepped in a gopher hole.............I whiffed on a yearling Doe so bad my arrow ended up on the neighbors property. I cant stand hunting public land because you get run over by the crowd..........I'm too lazy to get up earlier and beat them in there.

Ethan Givan Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 I didnt miss, the deer ducked my arrow.....I guessed him for 30 yards when he was really 20. I got my pants all wet when I slipped in the creek trying to put a stalk on a big buck..........I peed my pants when I flushed that stupid covey of quail walking out in the dark.

stcif Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 I drew back and that arrow blew through both shoulders. I heard that dreaded crack noise, the arrow barely penetrated one lung, and I was lucky to find him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttinbuc Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 I ranged him at 60 yards and knew I could take him out since practicing out to 80, but that was at foam..... I missed him badly at sixty yards darn near taking his nose off'. I was at least hitting the 24x24 block at 80. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerClay Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 I didn't see a single deer all morning. I got buck fever and missed a nice buck. I don't want everyone to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Only 140 or better...........I just shot a scrub because it was on my property. If you're gonna slam me, get it right. 125 or better... Here's another one: It looked like a good shot...He kind of spun on me....it was a 40 yard shot.....I can't find him.....Probably out of my range...Hey! Here he is!
