"I don't know what hurt more, scrathes from the 'coon or the bumps on my head from my brother trying to knock him off my head with his rifle butt."

That would be a funny video.

LMAO!! Was getting into my deerstand one morning and had a raccoon go out right over the top of my head. Took a little while for my heart to slow down.

. He had his eye out for deer ... Mick usually hunts with a bow and arrow. But at the time he didn't have any weapons on him.

I'm not a hunter, but even I know you don't go deer hunting unarmed.

Coming soon to an old-growth forest near you...

I had a raccoon jump on my head once. I don't know what hurt more, scrathes from the 'coon or the bumps on my head from my brother trying to knock him off my head with his rifle butt.

OMG _ LOL

Mick usually hunts with a bow and arrow. But at the time he didn't have any weapons on him.

“I just knew that no matter what happened he wasn't going to give up hunting or fishing. It's what he loves to do,” said his wife.

Mick has bruises on his chest, on the back of his arms and on his shoulder.
As for the deer, the two wrestled until they were both worn out and the deer ran off.

Wrestling with a deer huh? OK. Sure. If his wife believes that why shouldn't I? ;^)

Check the latest issue of "Analog" sci-fi magazine. Almost this exact thing is written about in one short story...

"Hey, what are brothers for? At least he used the butt of the rifle..."

LOL, Almost exactly what our Mom said.

LOL! That's right up there with sister-bighting mooses!

Nope, you're not a hunter at all. ;^)

[Samwise]

Thanks for the link. :^) Now I get the reference.

[HairOfTheDog]

If you are sitting in the woods making 'come hither' calls like a doe in heat, better watch your back ;~D

[Samwise]

I once had a scary encounter with a very petulant squirrel. You never know with these cute little animals.

[TigersEye]

When I think of a hunter dressed in tan overalls, human scent washed out, doe urine sprinkle liberally about, rattling antlers and bleating out "Hey big boy" on a deer call...it makes think of Sgt. Plumley in We Were Soldiers.

"Gentlemen, prepare to defend yourselves!"

[Goodwillhntg]

where is North Vernon and was this a pissed off Blue state deer?

[HairOfTheDog]

Me too, me too!

ROFL Your brother sounds almost as smart as my brother. We were in an aluminum flat boat in a bayou in SE Louisiana. A cottonmouth dropped into the boat from an over-hanging branch.

Yeah, you guessed it. My brother shot six holes in the bottom of the boat trying to "kill the snake." Luckily the boat had floatation.

Why are younger brothers always so stooopit?
