RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
For my own information...... Is anyone else tired of atlas's constant bickering? Really get over yourself all ready. I want so badly to put atlas on ignore but can't make myself do it. The shock value of his outlook on most everythingkeeps me from hitting that little red block button. |
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
I'll join ya Atlas

RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
Antler Eater Hey bud... been up to much lately?? ;)  Tim Forget what I said about donating the 2nd deer to a needy family.[&:]:D Rack-attack, your post cracked me up. Have fun at the ATA show, don't drop all that cash in one booth.;) gibblet, thanks for the support. In addition to admiring your strings I like your chicken references that you interject every now and then. Candling eggs has always fascinated me, but then again, as you already know, I am somewhat of a sick freak.:D Sideways, you never know, there have been years when that fetus was bigger than any buck I brought home. :DThanks.:) chucker34, Your wisdom was somewhat hidden from the rest of the forumbeing that you PM'ed me wondering what I was up to before I ever let the cat out of the bag. Nice touch. Thanks. Buckeyebuckhnter, thanks. I am happy that you enjoyed the photos. I was surprisedhow difficult and time consumingitwas to photograph that little bundle of cells. Most of my attempts were just a blurr. As for your "other dilemma", well, Atlas will just be one of those crosseswe will have to bear.;) MQ1, It is always nice to see someone use the gift of the the gray matter between their ears in a positive way. I love your contributions, they are always intelligent,insightful, and rooted in common sense. Thanks... By the way, I thought the link you provided was an interesting read. There are some others I would like to thank, even some that were not entirely friendly, different perspectives that aren't hostile are healthy. However, I have some duties at the moment that must be tendedto involving some four legged crittersin my little corner of the world so I must sign off for now... |
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
Wait until Atlas get a hold of him!!! I think your gulity, I would at least donate the deer. |
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
ghemy,
Your graciousness and good nature are shining through. Quite honestly when I read your first post concerning Atlas I laughed my fool head off because I knew you were right. :D |
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
I still say you were stupid and took an ill-advised low-light shot in which you couldn't positively identify your target or that limb that will surely catch your arrow. How did you know there wasn't a child behind that ....that.....that presumed DEER?
Tongue-in-cheek.........Tongue-in-cheek...... Jeff |

RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
Yeah, but we're talking about bow and arrow, which after going through a doe would have a range of like, what? ten yards? |
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
Ms. Antler Eater, does Antler Eater wear that mask around the house too or just when hunting? That's the real concern we need to address here.:D
Man, I am losing focus here at work with the holiday coming up so shortly. |
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
You better reread the constitution because the right to hunt is not in there ;) Hunting is a privilege........no different then driving. You have to be a certain age to do it and you have to pass educational courses and a test to be allowed a license. That license (privilege) can be revoked at any time for violation of the rules. |
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
You're wife is very understanding AE...my wife was miffed when I had a coyote in our deep freeze in the basement, and it was wrapped in several plastic bags...just knowing "it" was in there creeped her out.
|
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
Everyone should be worried about wh the nonhunters think and the animal activest they infulence government officals just as we do and some day hunting just might be banned it used to be your right to own a gun not so these days its a priveledge.. that can be taken away .. yes mistakes are made.. but guess on this forum things like this are consider fun.. ok will try to laught at the next post like this..

RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
I shot a doe last season bow in 2000. She also had a fetus in her also. About the same size. My friend doesn't hunt. So I bring him out there to experience a piece and he sees this. He pukes all over then recovers just in time for a pic. I don't think it was a positive experience for my friend. He still laughs about today. Sorry about the side track. I think the post was funny and proves a point. Everyone makes mistakes. It what you do after the mistake is what counts. The majority of us here have done something in the woods. Where you just sit back, and your like wow that was bad, or it could have been bad. It's what we learn from our mistakes and bad judgement. When I was a 1st time bowhunter I to have shot at a deer when it was to dark. When I got back to the house. I sat down and thought about what I did, and realized I got caught up in the momment and made a big mistake, and vowed to do it again. 13 yrs later. I can say I've never done it again. Safe Hunting!
This is the doe I mentioned earlier, and this was the friend that puked at the sight of the fetus! |
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
Hey AE! What a thread.Very interesting to see peoples initial reactions. Especially the folks that admitted to jumping to conclusions. Much respect for thoseguys. Non hunters would have egg on their face trying to make an issue of a legal bow kill where the hunter actually took the time to investigate all the facts involved in his kill. I have seen AE on an elk kill examine each organ to find the cause of a quick pile up. So I know this was done with no disrespect to the animal. I think the lesson here is ask questions before you criticize. Especially in public.
P.S. Ken,240 days and counting. P.S.S. Hello Mrs AE. Keep him busy. |
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
This will get interesting...pass the popcorn. Cheers! |
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
AE, you think I could borrowone of yourlures sometime? It really seemed to work well on thelargemouth bass in this pond. :D They took it hook, line, and sinker.
|
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
I dont know what hunting class you graduated from but one of the fist things mine taught about shot placement was be sure of what is behind your target and beyond before you take your shot. So about what to do you probably already did the right thing by turning your self in, this being a public forum and all.
|
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
I find it amusing that after eleven pages of revelation, there are still some people who must not be reading before jumping to conclusions still... ;)

RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
AE after reading your post and all other 100+ posts in this thread,I have a couple of things to say.First off yes your post is decieving,but it shows exactly howjudgmental some members here are.Second there is nothing uncommon with a doe in my area having multiple fawns in her after Thanksgiving.Our deer start breeding in Late September.If I were to take a doe right now she would have a fetus approximately 5-7" long or longer.I have seen does taken in late Dec/Jan with squirrel sized fetus'.If you take a late season doe you should go ahead and assume she has been bred.So,if you do not wish to kill pregnant females with visible fetuses then don't shoot a late season doe.True there are alot of fetuses in gut piles,but other than having something to look at (which is rather disturbing/odd to me)there is no sense in keeping them....Show some respect,and bury it with it's mother..

RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
I thought about this thread last week after I killed a doe and after gutting her there was a 3" fetus on the ground. After further investigation, I found another. Got you beat AE, I killed 3 with one shot.

Very interesting info ranchand99...I am assuming you are refering to the State of Georgia in your post. Georgia is one place I have never huntedso I am not arguing with yourstatement on the breeding season, but goodness, if your herd is breeding in September and continuing to do so through the New Year your rut is really stretched out. Talk about a "trickle rut"... For those who would like to know when a doe was bred obviously a fetus is an excellent indicator. Again interesting information thanks for taking the time to reply.... |

RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
AE,We do have a trickle rut down here in SE coastal ga.It is nothing like north ga or other states like Illinois,or Missouri have.They start in late Sept,with the first peak being in Mid-October..during bow season.We find scrapes all season..I just found a fresh scrape 2 days ago,but I found my first pawing around sept 15th this year.Trickle ruts are not as fun to hunt as what ya'll have.We actually have around4 ruts.The strongest ismid-Oct,and the 2nd rut in mid-Nov.Alot of people like to argue with me about this,because they see rutting in Nov.I am out there with a bow from sept 10th or so on..I see the first rut.It's when gun season comes inafter late Oct..and there are more hunters in the woods that they see the 2nd rut,and think it is the "main" rut.My Uncle shot a big 9pt On Dec 9th back in 96 that was chasing a doe.I have heard of other people seeing them chase does in Jan.So basically you could go out from Sept to Jan,and see a buck chasing a doe...and that means that the "rut" hunting isn't all that good.<---IMO.Our coastal deer are strange for sure.Here is a study Ft.Stewart has done...As you can see does have been found to of been bred as early as Sept.20th.They do their anual fetus check at christmas.I feel the fetus' are not developed enough at that time for them to see that the does could have been bred after Dec 1st.
[ul][*]AVERAGE PEAK OF RUT 2004-2005: [/ul] The First major peak generallyoccurs within the 2nd and 3rdweek of October but was a week earlier in 2004-2005.  |
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
well... instead of killing two birds with one stone, u killed two deer with one arrow. R u sure u killed it and it wasn't wounded and it died there earlier. if ur arrow passed through the lungs of the first deer and there was another deer bedded behind that it would make sense.

I agree with BOWFANATIC you should donate the extra doe meat to the poor and needy and just forget about the whole thing.
NO you should never stop bow hunting!!!!!!!! |
RE: Do You Think I Would Get in Trouble For This??
Way to go Antler Eater, over 4700 hits and people are still posting without reading. And tha saga continues.:D
