Default RE: what' s the funniest thing you' ve seen while hunting

I have two of them.

Both happened this past year. First.....

I was hunting my new spot. A nice clearing in between two fence rows. Basically it' s an old tractor path in between two fields. I had a really nice ten come out of a bedding area and walk a fence row in front of me. I could' nt get a shot due to the trees. Well, I let out a series of Doe bleats in order to get his attention. He decided to hop the fence. Well, he hoped over, and caught his legs on the fence, and went tubling HEAD OVER HEALS into the lane. Then he jumped up, and looked around as if he was checking if anyone saw him. It was pretty funny. Made lots of noise and seemed to put him on alert. Never did get a shot at him. I have seen him this year. He' s still big!!!

Second story...


This one involves me. If someone on the outside was looking in, they would laugh their A_ _ off. I was hunting turkeys for the first time last year. I had hunted deer in the same fields for about two years. It is a 200 acre cattle pasture with lots of deep draws in it. Well, I had come right up onthese cows all during deer season. They thought nothing of me. As a matter if fact they usually ran away from me. Well, I went out during Turkey season, and I was wondering around. I spotted the cows and low and behold they spotted me. They were about 200 yards out.....and came charging. There were 29 cows in this pasture, and every one of them was heading right at me. I did' nt think much until they got about 75-100 away and were' nt slowing down. I started running.....FAST. Cows are HUGE, and FASTER THAN ME. I ended up sliding down on my REAR END down these deep draws. Slid right through thorn bushes, and over rocks. Felt really nice. Anyway, I got to the bottom, and all the cows were up top looking down at me snorting and being pretty much just pisses off at me. I started throwing rocks at hit one of them right between the eyes. They finally took off. After that, they kept doing it, but I would just start throwing stuff, and they would take off elsewhere. Probably pretty funny looking for someone looking in on the other side of the fence.
