ONE PIS___ of deer

I'm not saying that it wasn't a nice deer. To me it would be the same thing as shooting a buck tangled in a barb wire fence. I just don't think I could have shot it.

I would have shot the crap out of it.

Hey the guy was coming in from hunting, when I leave my stand and walk back to camp I'm not kicking rocks and whistling, I'm still hunting till its time to unload before stepping into camp. If I came upon a a buck like that on the way to camp I'm shooting him. From the story I gathered that the deer was not entangled until he was hit the first time, maybe I'm wrong.

"Lord, thank you for this deer I'm about to receive that you've allowed to get entangled in this barbed wire fence. Amen!!!"

Trapped under a concrete deer, caught in a barbed wire fence, hung up in a clothes line (or any other such scenario) all seem perfectly legal to me and I'd take advantage of each opportunity (within the limits of the law) to put meat in the freezer.

I still think its a bunch of crap. Where ya lose me is how the buck got caught under the concrete deer. Seems kinda fishy to me.Was it a60 or70yard bow shot?Your friend must be either one lucky sun of a gun or one heck of a shot. Only thing I can say about the photos is that photoshop is a wonderful thing.In one post you say25 points and in this one you say 20 points. In the first you said it "smoked" the deer, I took the meaning to be that he finished it off in one shot but this post says 3 shots up close. I'm not saying it isn't a nice deerbutI'd have to witness it to believe what you say happened.

I would have made up a story about the complicated grunt and rattling sequence I used along with a decoy and drug him out in the trees to make it look better.

so what i am hearing here is no one on this site has ever stretched the truth when retelling a deer story? yeah right! fact is you have a young hunter with a monster on the ground, i coud really care less if he used a pea shooter at 500 paces to knock him down! as for inhuntr your tellin us that you are returning from hunting gear in hand and at the ready and the deer like that is standing their, just because it is in the backyard you wouldn't shoot it. lets really lookat who isn't telling the truth. even if the lawn ornimant is a lie i give him credit for being creative! happy hunting to all and may the lawn ornament god's hold em long enough till ya get a shot off!

Man thats awesome for sure

I would've shot it without hesitation. That buck right there might keep that kid interested in hunting for the rest of his life. Who knows. I would like to know if it was a bow kill or rifle kill b/c the story and pic is a little misleading. Nonetheless, Anybody who says they wouldn't shoot it is just lying through your teeth. Just say congrats and move on.
