Default RE: Tell me a story

A buddy and me went to my cousins in Ohio for the after thanksgiving gun hunt several years ago. On the second day of the season he shot a 17 inch 8pt with 8 and 9 inch g2 and g3, a nice big body buck. As luck would have it the buck ran down into this deep holler. We started dragging that buck out, but our out of shape bodies made it tough. So we went back to cuz's house and pick up our 4 wheelers. He had a 2 wheel drive 220 kawazaki and mine was a 400 4x4 polaris. We loaded the buck on his bike and started up the hill. The ground was very soft from recent rains and very very steep. His bike wouldnt make it up the hill, so I threw him a rope. I latched mine around the ball and he tied his in a slip knot and his frontrack. I told him you had better tie a better knot than that. He said hell that will hold it wont take much to pull me up. I pulled him a few yards up the hill and all of sudden my bike shot forward, when I turned around all I saw was his bike filpping over and over with the buck on the back and his ML on the handle bar gun rack. He jumped off when he saw the knot coming loose. I said why didnt you holler when you saw the knot slipping he said he didnt think about it all I wanted to do was get off. When it was all said and done he had broke the scope off his ML and one side of the rack off the buck. His 4 wheeler was ok except for bent handle bars, but at least he wasnt hurt.
