Thanks for all your replies, and thanx Justin for fixing my links. This will be a site I will never forget. You can Imagine the shock to look up the mountian and see a buck just hanging there from a tree. At first I thought it was a fallen tree, but the thought was in the back of my head until I got close enough to confirm it. The tail end was the only thing touching the ground!! I think I said it before, but it took over 30 minutes to get the deer unwedged!! He was in there TIGHT!! The beast is dead, now its time to move on to the one that will move in to take his place as the "boss of the deer woods".
