Haven't read through all the terms...but did anyone list...
Ground Check - Shoot it 1st, identify it once it's down and on the ground (of course, I wouldn't recommend that)

Often times some of my hunting buddies and I will use these terms:
Skinhead - Doe
Pot Hunting - Hunting by sitting in a treestand
Pushing or Driving - Deer drive
On-Stand or On-Post - Going to hunt "standing", on the other end of the deer drive.
