RE: APPROACHING DEAD DEER?
Quite a few years back in Jersey during the noon break an Ambulance pulls up to the woods area and they put this nut case in the ambulance. Seems he jumped from a tree limb onto a doe with a knife in an attempt to take the deer by stabbing it. The doe kicked his ass all to hell and back. Heard later he got several hundred stitches.
I walk up and at a few yards look him over real carefully then poke an eye. Had one that was sholder shot and he had a good size 8 point rack. I could see him squirming went in close and decided that slit the throat thing would be dangerous. so I backed off 25 yards proped up and ended the problem.
