My question becomes who do you txt? not to seem like a jerk, but who is so important that you gota txt during a hunt? My gf knows when its deer season that she wont hardley see me for 3 days, and we live together. she will hear from me if i get a deer or in an extreame emergency other wise phone is off. Family knows the same so as far as im concerned txting isnt neccissary, but if you can do it, can get a deer, then more power too you.

Sounds like ya'll had a good hunt. I Think I'm gonna flame you for such an un-ethical and horrible shot on a deer, you really are a horrible person! Shooting a deer in the belly with a .350, you oughta be ashamed. There's no way that deer would ever bleed out. It obviously ran into a tree and died, cause it certainly couldn't be from that horribly unethical shot you took!
And you mean to tell me that deer was standing, at 110 yards?? WHat if it had moved???? I only shoot deer that are bedded down, sleeping, and at no more than 58 yards. Come on SKy, show some class.
Tell her nice job!

I'm lucky enough to live in a place where the deer are plentiful, so if I were to spend time texting or anything like that I would miss way too much. And Sky tell yer girl congrats! My girlfriend shot her first doe on her first trip last weekend with me. Used my brothers .270 and dropped her in her tracks! I'll try and get a picture up here at somepoint.

My time in the stand is between me and God.
We have our deep talks, listen to the music of the forest, and regain the peace inside myself I lose throughout the week as I tear through work and life in general.
The breeze through the trees is a better symphony than any orchestra on the planet.
The crackle of the leaves, twigs falling, critters moving, it's all part of the experience.
Besides, if you're not completely on your game in the stand, you might miss something, and that something could be the opportunity of a lifetime!
How could you possibly know it's there if your face is plastered to your phone/pda/digital umbilical cord?
