I hate gun season with a passion. I wish they would get rid of it. Me and My Dad have been hunting for this 1 8 pointer We have been seeing all year. My Dad had 1 close encounter with it during bow season, and I had 1 too. We were guessing it to be around 150". Well Being as how much I hate gun season because of neighboring farms shooting anything that moves... especially deer we've been passing up. Well I went hunting anyways... who wouldn't. Well Me and My Dad seen the deer yesterday. It was chaseing a doe. It was heading right for Our neighbors property. It was Thursday though so We were hoping noone was hunting. It is a sick feeling when You see a 150" 8 point run onto Your neighbors farm and then 5 minutes later hear shots ringing out. Needless to say Our neighbor killed it. It scored 147. An 8 point that scores 17" [:-]I'm sick. Sorry about My rant. Just a little upset right now.
What the hell are you upset about? Let me guess......You're upset because another hunter killed a deer? No wait, this was
your deer huh? I'm sorry, I must have missed the part where you wrote how you raised this deer from a fawn only to have it bust loose from it's pen and run over the the neighbor's land to be gunned down by those darn "shoot anything that moves" gun hunters.[:@]
What the heck gives you more of a right to kill that deer over your neighbor? Why because it was killed by a gun hunter. Oh no wait, you said that both you and your dad had a "close encounter" with this particular deer. Well then, that explains everything, those darn neighbors should have
known that that deer was off limits, how dare they? I know that when I'm on my property and a 150in deer comes running by the first thing I ask myself is "I wonder if someone else is hunting this deer".
No, you have every reason in the world to hate the gun season, all it does is allow
other hunters to kill deer.....and how is that fair to you?
