Pretty crazy story...(deer)

[416exmx]

So this evenging I was shellin corn trying to get the 06 corn harvest finished up. The feild I was in was all surrounded by woods and just a tad weedy. So I'm shellin along, get to the end of the feild, turn and take off headin back. Im runnin right around 5.5mph just tootin along when all of a sudden I look up and there is a deer up in the corn head. I jerked the hydrostat back quickly into reverse and got him out and he just laid there on the ground. I was kinda in shock that a deer was just up in the corn head so I pulled back forward and bumped him a lil and he took off stumblin about 50ft then fell down again. I guess he was bedded down where it was kinda weedy and didnt get up and right when in got to him he stood up and the corn head sucked him in. It broke both his back feet and chewed on his back end a bit. I called the Conservation officer and he said he would come out and shoot it or I could shoot it. He said he'd give me a tag and I could take it and get it processed if I wanted. It was an 11 pointer, 17 1/2 spread. The guy at the processer said it'd score a 140-150. Anyway, pretty crazy. Here is a pic.

Wow! Nice buck! Kinda a strange way to get one, but meat in the freezer. Im kinda surprised he didnt take off long before you got to him.

[suck my pipe]

ha, thats crazy. looks like you shot him in the neck? I would of just shot it in the heart. but you should mount that. It would make a good story when people ask.

[416exmx]

Yeah thats where we shot him in the neck to finish him off.

I've shot a lot of cows in my time and the method I used was to make an X from their eyes to the poll(where there horns would stick out), basically a shot to the forehead. Was told this method from a veterinarian as the most effective way to kill an animal.

very nice buck!

You are very lucky. We have had deer and fawn get caught up in the head and have even gotten into the feederhouse, thats not a fun job to deal with:( We have also had smaller critters make a home inside the machine, and once the separator was thrown on they came out the back, and not in good condition:huh

So an ole pilgrim goes up to an indian camp and talks to the chief. He said he was all out of luck and hard up and needed a woman for some quick lovin. The indian told the pilgrim he had a lady for him but it would cost him. The pilgrim reached in his pocket and didnt even have a wooden nickle, but had a bag of corn. The indian accepted the corn as payment and lead the pilrgim to a teepe. He got inside and a beautiful woman was inside waiting for him. The turned her rear up to him and said she was ready. He got a comfused look on his face and said he'd like to have some frontal action. She said "Oh no, thats my money hole, this is my "corn hole". LOL

Some guys make a big deal about gun hunting and how its hard to get the big buck. All ya gotta do is slow that bullet down to 4 mph and put an 8 row head on it and consider it done...

HAHA......yeah spend hundreds $$$ on camo, treestand, deer rifle that shoots a couple thousand feet per second and spend hours hunting silently only to miss that deer when you shoot. Drive down the road about 50mph in a big truck blowing the horn and the deer jumps right out in front of you ! happens every time :devil:
