what' s the funniest thing you' ve seen while hunting
 

I was just kicken it back today thinking of all the memories I have of previous hunts I' ve been on and every single time I have gone hunting I have encountered something new along the way.

I was just wondering what is the funniest thing you have seen or heard while hunting?

(Before I start I want everyone to know that I' m not poking muck at the mentally unsound, the guy mentioned in the story seems normal to talk to but he goes a bit loopy when he' s alone.)

A favourite spot of mine to go hunting is in a huge valley semi-cleared for cattle grazing. There is an old hermet who lives at the bottom of the valley and we came to the conclusion that this guy is a few sheep short in the top paddock (if you know what I mean) :D[&:]:D.

Every day early in the mornings you can hear him shouting at the top of his lungs but you could never quite understand what he was saying. You could hear this guy yelling from about 3 kilometres away.

Anyway, one of my funniest memories is when me and me best friend were hunting through the valley early one morning and the hermett was yelling his lungs out at nothing (as per usual) so we discided to sneak in to see if we could understand him. When we got close enough we could see him out on his verandah singing at the top of his lung " Old Macdonald had a farm. Ee Ii Ee Ii Oow" :D:D:D

When we heard this we burst out laughing and to this day it still gives me a chuckle or two thinking about it.:D

Can anyone else tell use about there funny stories?

Well I thought it was funny, but I bet the lady would have simply been embarassed to death if she knew what I had seen. I was sitting on a stand and I saw this lady hunter coming across the field in my general direction, as she neared the edge of the woods about 30 yards from me she started looking all around, stopped and leaned her gun against a tree, dropped trousers and proceeded to releive herself![:o] When she had finished she passed within 15 yards of where I was sitting, she never saw me and I decided to not announce my presence because I thought she would have died of embarrasement!:D

Taz, I can' t believe that you let a woman drop her pants right in front of you without giving her some kind of warning of your presence. You pervert. [>:]
I' m glad you didn' t have a video camera.[>:]:D

I was muzzleloader hunting a few years ago when this fellow hunter came walking down the trail towards my stand. I waved my hand but he never looked up and kept on coming towards me. When he got about 15 yards from my tree I blew a grunt call and he stopped like he knew he heard something but didnt know where or what it was. When I grunted again his eyes widened bigger than any Ive ever seen and he litterally dove to the side of the trail.[:o] His exited actions reminded me of Barney Fife from the Andy Griffith show. The guy slowly rolled onto his side and very carefully removed his grunt call . He grunted, I grunted, he grunted , I grunted. Every time I grunted I would point the tube in a different direction and 0l Barneys eyes would look like saucers. Ive never in my life seen a person shake with that much excitement. Apparantly the guy either thought there was more than one buck or the buck was moving. All this time Im up in the tree choking from trying not to laugh out loud. I finally couldnt take it anymore and burst out laughing.:D:D[&:] Barney stood up with a confused look on his face then looked up. I then played jingle bells on my grunt call. He shook his head, put his hand on his heart and walked back the way he came.:(

I was heading to my stand, when I see this man up in a treestand about 100yds away. This is private land, and noone else in our group was down to camp hunting. So I planned on sneaking over and kicking the B@#*^$D off!. I got within 50yds, and using my binoculars see its my brother. He must have come down while I was out to surprise me. So thinking of a way to surprise him, he begans climbing down, and removing his portable stand making some clanging noises. So I give him a few grunts. Talk about a hunter caught in a bad situation. He instantly stops, looking around like crazy. I even heard him say S#@T! I grunt couple more times. Now he' s trying to put his stand back onto the tree. I' m behind a large tree among some brush & saplings. I then push a sapling back & forth like its being rubbed. Man was he going nuts, looking. By now he' s refastening his stand. By the time this was over. I had him in his stand pulling his bow back up, laughing my butt off. He musta heard me trying to not giggle to loud. Because he finally yelled back. You son of a B#&@h!!!!!

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.

My favorite is from a couple of years ago when I was with three others elk hunting. We were posted up around a wallow (sp?) and waited as the daylight began to fade. Three of us were within vision of each other, the fourth was up the hill and came down without us seeing him. While he was waiting for us to come down he was sitting down and not real visible since the light was fading. Then a guy that was hunting by himself walked on the backside of the three of us and right near the fourth guy that was sitting down waiting for us. The guy waiting thought he would spook what he thought was one of the three of us, turns out he scared the fellow that thought he was in the mountains by himself. He gave a holler at the guy and the guy screamed like you wouldn' t believe and we walked down after that laughing all the way.

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

I just thought of another one that happened on that same trip. I was waiting in an area on top of a hill that took a good 45 minutes to climb, partially because I was not in the best shape I should be, but was sitting there and heard something moving toward me. I was anticipating an elk to come into the open and listening intently to the sound of sticks breaking and busting as the animal approached on the hillside, then it was getting close so I began to raise my bow and getting ready to drawback when the animal was in the opening, then all at once out jumped a great big black cow, not a cow elk, a beef cow! I have no idea how that cow found his way up that hillside, but it was not the way I climbed up the hill. It was pretty funny though to have a cow pop out of an area that you would never expect to see one.

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

12 years ago I was bow hunting on my then future father in laws' s farm nestled in for the afternoon when I decided to bring out my bran spanking new grunt call for a try. I gave a soft grunt and to my surprise I got a response back on the first try I had just thought I had bought the greatest deer call of all time. I gave another grunt and sure enough I got another response, well then I hushed up for a few minutes getting ready for the ultimate gift to present itself but nothing happened, so then I grunted again and automatically I got a respose and this time I heard sticks break and could hear walking my heart was pounding with anticpation of the whack fest that was about to begin I could hear movement 30 yds. in the brush still no deer wait now I see movement what to my surprise was the 15 year old neighbor boy with his bow in hand and grunt call hanging from his lips as he let out a soft grunt trying to entice me to grunt back. I stood up and asked what he was doing his reply was I didn' t know anyone hunted here and he apologized and returned the way he came in with his head down. I felt mad for him trepassing sad because he left before I could tell him it was O.K. he just needs to let some one know and after I sat back down and thought about it I couldn' t stop laughing how easily it was to call him in and what he must had be thinking while he was calling. The next year we hunted together and he did take a 5 point and doe. I still can' t stop laughing

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

Two years ago I had a doe and a fawn milling around in front of me and I saw the doe lift her tail and thought that the turds would start trickling out, when all of a sudden she really let one rip!! :-) I couldn' t keep from laughing from that one!!

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

i have just two stupid things: the one time i saw to button bucks fighting. they were up on their hind legs hitting each other cause they had no horns to hit. i thought it was pretty funny. that same day, those button bucks were under my stand, a flock of turkey came in. after missing one at like 25 yards, they moved onto the acorn patch 50 yards away. i watched as the deer were chasing the turkeys all over the place. it seemed like the deer were only picking on like 2 birds. they did it about 4 or 5 times...it was pretty funny

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

Ive got two .. 2 years ago during turkey season we hunted on some cow pastures.. of course there were cows.. and there was one cow that I was always leary of you could tell he was not happy with the camo or just didnt like me.. anyway I had a friend with me and I told him to just keep his eye on that cow because he was aggressive.. so later that morning we were headed to the truck when he turned around and said OH SH*T and started running.. well my assumption was that big cow was right behind us and I started running.. I glanced behind me to see what was there.. There was nothing there.. he just busted out laughing.. I couldnt help but laugh..

The second time it was that same guy, me and another buddy turkey hunting with us.. Well we were walking down a trail to get to a bottom when the same guy as above grabed a stiff limb without our other friend looking and smacked him REALLY hard against the calf. Well the guy jumped 3 feet in the air and screamed like a girl because he thought he had been bitten by a snake.. *LOL*

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

When I was younger I had a spike come in right under my stand and I made the decision to pass a deer for the first time. Afterr watching him a while I had to try out my new grunt call, so I let out a small grunt when he was about 10 yards past me. He jumped and took off, I thought he was gone but he dove headfirst into a brushpile about 45 yards away and hid with only his head visible. He stayed there real still for about 10 minutes and started to get out, I grunted again and he hunkered back into the brush. After a few minutes he came out and didnt waste much time getting where he was going. I guess he didnt want anything to do with a bigger buck, he looked hilarious trying to hide in thebrushpile[8D]

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

I was elk hunting along Taneum Ridge in Eastern Washington when I came eye to eye [less than 15 inches] with a mature Badger basking on a pile of timber logs. We must have each seen each other at around the same time. He started growling at me and started fiercely knashing his SHARP teeth and growling at me. Since I was too close to shoot and didn' t dare move lest he attack, all I could think to do was knash my teeth and growl back at him.

We hissed and growled at each other for nearly ten minutes before he tired of the challenge, turned and waddled off the logs and out of sight.

WHEW!

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

one time in my stand i was watchin a squirrel about 5 feet away on a limb when all of a sudden i heard a loud screetch and looked just to see a huge red tailed hawk come through an opening at the squirrel who let out some god awful noise and jumped just in the right time to miss the hawk who then hit a branch and got tangled in it for a few seconds i was laughin so hard

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

This one time in Band Camp, :D oh this supposed to be a Hunting story Oh well ;)

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

About five years ago I was hunting from a stand without much action going on, so I was watching a hawk cruise through the woods looking for supper. He was zipping through the woods about six feet off the ground and after a few passes he was heading directly for the tree that I was in. I leaned over to see what he was after under my stand just in time for him to go verticle and land on my knee. I had my hand resting on my leg and instinctively drew it back. He sat there for a few seconds, trying to figure out what the movement had been. Finally he flew about ten feet over and sized me up for a couple of minutes then went on about his business.

Must be good cammo.

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

i was hunting in the mountains near the west virginia border, using a ground blind i had created from rocks and brush in the area. just after sunrise i heard a noise coming in from my left, sounded like a couple of deer to me so i got ready. much to my surprise it was a black bear. it came to a screeching halt about 30 yards from me and was sitting on its rear behind a small pine tree. i guess the wind must have changed and he caught my scent. anyways, he did not want to cross the small clearing in from of me. finally i said " hey, you better get your rear out of here" now he could not determine where the voice was coming from. again i repeated it and he still did not move. finally, i yelled out " hey, you better get your black arse out of here" and he did. had the crosshairs between his eyes all this time.

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

Once while in my treestand I spotted a chipmunk searching for food in the leaves. He would pop his head out and look to see all is well I would just move my foot and he would pick up on the motion and would duck back under a hole between rocks for protection against Hawks I guess. After about a minute or two he would pop his head out and again I would shuffle my foot, This went on for about 20 minutes untill I finally got tired of the game. He kept me company for hours.

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

had a sqirrel one time run down a log and stick his face right into my doe in heat in a film canister with cotton balls. he stuck his face in it and then jumped back in the air a couple feet and ran away. potent stuff i guess!

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

My funniest story doesn' t even compare to some of the others....but I had a squirrel come really close to me in my tree, and then run away.....but he must have been confused because he did this 5 or 6 times before I got annoyed and took off my face mask and scared him away...I bet he was shocked.

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

2 or 3 years ago during the rut, I was in a tree overlooking a field. An assortment of does, yearlings and fawns (all antlerless) came out of the woods and were milling about beneath me when a buck saw them from the other end of the field and came down to check " the girls" out. None of them wanted his advances, but he apparently irritated the obvious lead doe. She tucked her ears back and put her head down and began to head butt the buck. Even though he was slightly larger, he was unaccustomed to this and finally gave up after she pushed him around enough. He left with his head hangin' . [:' (]

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

OK no rebukes for me on not wearing my safety harness please... I had one but, believe it or not it shrunk the day before opening day when I washed it... [:@]
I was climbing a tree with my stand. I have the typical climber stand: you move the footing part of the stand, secure it move the seat & arm part and repeat. Well I had chosen a tree that had an incline on it which makes climbing VERY difficult when the incline is towards you. Well, long story short, I lost my footing and there went my bottom section. As for me I had a hold of my top section pretty well. Now, how or why, I couldn' t tell you... but I just sort of lost my head (about 20ft. up or more, above a steep hill that would have been HELL to land on) and was looking up at my grip or at the tree. Seeing no solution in sight, not within range of other hunter friends... 5 mins must have gone by and I finally looked down and much to my suprise the SAFETY LINE that I had used to tie the top and bottom sections together had caught the bottom piece... and perfectly according to plan it was there dangling just within reach of my foot to reach and pull it up :D :D

wasn' t funny at the time... but looking back I think about what on earth was I spacing about and why didnt' I look down. I dangled there for so long unnecessarily!

What should we all have learned!? Tree stand safety!

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

This is like a lot of your stories, it was' nt exactely funny at the time, but loking back, I cant help but laugh.

i was 10 at the time, and it was the first time I was able to go on a hunting trip with me dad. I was so jazzed! We went out and bought me some brand new Camos, new boots, and my very own knife! I couldnt believe it! Well, after a two hour drive, and another hour setting camp up, dad gave me something to do! I got to go find firewood! The people who were camped next to us told me that they were packing it in, and once they left i could have all of their left over wood. So, a half an hour later, they were gone and I was walking back up the trail to their camp when I heard something in the brush... It sounded BIG! I ran back to camp as fast as I could hollering about a big ol bear trying to eat me. Dear ole dad grabs his bow and we slowly go back to where I was... We get about ten feet from where I was standing when I heard it and a grouse takes off. Now, back then I had never seen nor heard of a grouse, and I jumped 3 feet in the air, did a 180 and was back in camp before I knew it... Dad had to set the bow and himself down on the ground to keep from hurting either one - he was laughing too hard! :D

Steve,
Last year I was guiding a pheasant hunt for a young engaged couple. It was the young lasses (short little thing) :)first pheasant hunt. She was trying desperately to impress her young beau. :DHe was trying to be helpful and tell her how to do it. It was only making her more nervous.
I was trying to encourage her and tell her how good she was doing. Well, danged if she didn' t get a pheasant before he did. [:-]I was very proud of her. She was so excited. I held it up for her and very proudly put it in the back of her vest for her.
She was so excited that when we began our hunt again , after all the praise and cheering, that she didn' t notice the big hole in front of her and she fell in. She was such a short little thing we thought we lost her. The fiance and I looked over and she was gone, vanished , out of sight. (It was a tile blow out, in the field).
She was fine, and laughed so hard that it loosened her and the beau up for a great rest of the hunt.:D;)

There was this one time, that was really funny, and then there was this other time up north with my friend, man I' ll never forget that one, Oh yea, and then there was this time that I went hunting and stayed longer than I should of, wow the wife was really pi**ed about that, and then last year, hey, last year , you gotta hear this one, man that was funny. Well thats about it for me.

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

There ahve been many funny things involving my hunting buddies.....
but for the stuff I' ve seen while in the field, I once was watching mature doe and 2 immature deer feeding leisurly on the edge of the trail I was set up on. Along comes a small immature spike and he kept trying to weasel in on the good green grass the others were eating.....Every time he' d get his lips on the grass the doe would hoof-smack him down.....man she would hit him so hard I could hear the hollow thunk against his head and ribs. That doe was tough.....and that little buck was stupid! She must have sent him off at least 15 times in a 20 minute period. I often wonder if he wasn' t her offspring and she was letting him know it was time to move out!

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

two years ago I was using my climber to get up a rather slick popel tree. It had rained the night before and the woods were very quiet. I guess I didn' t get the bunge cord around my right foot enough and it poped off while I was hoisting the base. I was about 15 ft up at this point and now was hanging by my forarms and the base of the stand was hanging by my left foot. Try as I may I could not get that thing to latch onto the small slick tree. As I bang' ed and clanged around I looked over to my right and there is a spike buck standing there watching me intensely. He walked from one side of me to the other, stoped his foot, snorted at me, and got within 10 feet of the tree. I thought that he was going to try to grab my bow! Finally I got my foot hooked on the side of the stand and was able to reattach myself to the base. All the while the spike just stood there. Pissed I put my safety strap on the tree, hoisted my bow up, he just looked up one last time as if to say. Got' ya. and walked away.


The next weekend I was sitting by an old apple tree near a creek on some public land. As I sat into the mid day I broke out my lunch and watched the brook trout race up and down the creek. Along came some hikers about 40 yards up the creek. The creek bends right where I was sitting and there is a narrow point about 20 yards down creek that I cross to get to my stand. These guys must not have been familiar with the area and were decked out in some very Posh hiking gear. Full packs, boots, fleece, walking sticks, etc. Where they came out was a fence line across the creek. It was only about 20' across they must have assumed that being the svelt, decked out, dudes that they were they could cross the fence and make it to the other side. The first guy starts to cross the wire holding the top while standing on the bottom. He makes it into the middle and then his feet start to get into the creek a little bit but he makes it across with little more than some wet leather on his boots. The second guy decides that he is going to use the middle strand of wire so that his boots don' t get wet. He starts across and as he gets to the middle his body starts falling back. The weight of the pack was pulling him back and his feet were pushed out in front of him. So now he is stuck hanging there in mid air. He gives one giant lurch and flips him self forward now hanging in the exact oposite direction He takes his feet off the wire and tries to catch the bottom wire but he must have had enough and falls into the creek. To his surprise he is only up to his shins in water! You could see the relief on his face. He turns takes one step and falls face first into the channel of the creek. His buddy is roaring laughing on the bank. So Polo, soaked, climbs out of the creek cussing a blue streak. After a few min Polo cracks a smile, empties his boots and they start out up the creek.

I was once duck hunting off this big point, it was muzzleloader deer opener too. A couple of hours into the hunt, a doe came crashing into the water about 20 yards away from the boat and it swam all the way across the lake. Then a fawn came and did the same thing. About 15 minutes later, these 2 guys that were walking the point with their muzzleloaders came by and asked us if we saw any deer. I said yep, them swam that way and pointed across the lake. They couldn' t believe it. Laughed alot after they left.

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

I dog hunted with my grandfather and some of my cousins up until I was in my mid twenties. I was way in the middle of a large swamp and managed to kill an eight point and a six point in the same morning. Two of my cousins came in to help carry the deer out. We put them both on one pole and were taking turns carrying. At one point we had to cross a muddy area. I was on the front of the pole at that point. My feet slipped in the mud and shot out to the side. I went down face first in the mud with the pole and 200+ pounds of deer on the back of my head. I couldn' t move and my cousins were laughing so hard I almost suffocated before they could rescue me. When I came up, I looked like a tar baby! We were completely helpless for a good five minutes.

That story has been told many many times and remains one of our favorites of all time.

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

I was in Missouri for opening day of trout season this spring. Here I was, standing in a cold trout stream along with about 20 other people fishing away in the same hole. Downstream about 50 yards or so was another small group of about 5 or so. All of the sudden someone says " Holy sh--, look at that!" I look to my right and half way between us and the smaller group comes a great looking doe right out into the middle of the stream. She stops right in the middle, where the water is about 6 or 8 inches deep and moving fairly quickly, and looks up at us like we were part of the herd. She takes a quick drink, looks back up at us and as if to say " Here' s what you all can do with your fishing!" takes a huge piss right there in the stream. She then slowly walked up the other bank and moved on. We all stood there speechless!!

I did not read through all of the other replies yet so I do not know if this one was mentioned....but I have had more than one hunter relieve themselves in one form or another within spitting distance of my treestand.

Maybe that deer pee/scent does more than we know....;)

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

I was hunting early one morning and a big eight pointer came under my stand, but I could not get a shot. He went over in a field with tall grass. A short time letter a small forked horn came by and walked out into the grass. A few minuets letter the small forked horn came running out of the field at full speed. It hit an electic fense close to my stand and turned two flips. Got up and shook itself off and took of again. I spent the whole morning braking into laughter..

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

I have read all of the posts in this forum. They are all too darn funny:D[&:]They really need to be recorded in a book and sold!! Maybe hunting.net could do that and make a little money for the site too?? Just a thought??:)

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

Last fall I was in the stand and needed to pee in a bad way and didnt want to just go on the ground, so I found a ziploc bag in my pocket to go in. After I was done I laid it on a limb close by. After about a half hour I bumped the bag off the limb and it busted like a water balloon. I thought it was over for the day because of the scent all over the ground, but a while later a forkhorn came down the ridge and started to get downwind, I thought well hes gonna raise hell now, but when he smell he started to look for it. He came in to the base of my tree and started to lick the leaves and bag. He even picked the bag up in his mouth and chewed it for a little bit. It was funny to see a deer chew a bag of human piss and not even get scared. After a couple minutes he wandered away and found my drag line and trailed it out of sight the wrong way. He must have thought the woods were full of interesting smells that morning.:D

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

Well i have a couple of stories so i' ll do my best to make them all short. Last year when i went pig hunting with my dad and two of his friends on this private owned range (this area was HUGE). It was during the summer so as you know it does get pretty hot out here. There were lot of cow herds out there so it wasnt uncommon to see several sitting underneath trees mixed up with pigs. There was a group of cows sitting on top of a hill (we could just see over the top) so we decided to check it out. (keep in mind we were in a truck) so we went up the hill and stopped just before getting to the very top. As we got out and walked to the top to scout out the valley below, all of a sudden 4 pigs got up and ran. One smaller boar ran smack into a cow that was laying down and was trying to jump over it about 4 times before succeding. We were laughing so much that none of us got a shot off after the pigs were safely away from the cows. The cow itself wasn' t sure what was going on and was wondering what happened lol. A cow hurddling pig, who would have thought :D

The second story didn' t involve me because i wasnt born yet (this was bout 2 years before i was born) but my dad and another guy were duck hunting up in Northern CA. They were on little boat and in tall grass as a blind. The guy knew the area really well and my dad was there once before. Sometime during the day the guy decided to set up in a blind stand that was set up but because of the location they would have to wade in the water to get to it but forgot to tell my dad which side to jump off from the boat. He did so in a spot that was over his head (my dad is about 6' ). I wasn' t there but i could picture that in my mind of my dad literally going in over his head lol. He told me this actually about about a week ago.

Third story. My dad and I were quail hunting near a well known camping area that we go to (place called Alder Creek) and we must have walked several miles and how these people got here i' ll never know. I heard some sort of commotion going on about i' d say 40 yards from where i was so him and I went to check it out; this married couple was camping out in the middle of nowwhere and were having sex on blanket. We were both laughing so hard and i swear i have never seen a human turn as red as that lady did lol.

Last story. I was about 6 years old and my family went dove hunting at a place i dont recall now. My sister and I went back to the truck to get something to drink and i was sitting in the back on the truck. We were parked in the shade and there were several branches directly overhead from where i was. All of a sudden a dead dove literally landed in my lap, scaring the poop out of me that when i reacted the cup went flying out of my hand and hit my sister directly in the face (boy she was mad lol). Looking back at it i think the dove must have been hit earlier because there wasn' t a hunter near by to have hit it when her and i were at the truck.

Hopefully you like my stories as much as i enjoy the others :)
