Happens all the time Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24514232 ^^^THIS!!^^^ Sad story of father shooting his son in the chest this past Friday: [link to www.cbc.ca] great story! Jeez, you're pretty sick aren't you? A father mistakenly kills his son and all you've got to say is "great story!"? |

Azarona User ID: 21513526 United States 10/09/2012 12:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ...in the Trinity Alps with 3 buddies Quoting: yeti 1065356 I'll have a deer tag and a pig tag ...speaking from experience do you have any important advice ? Do not were camo clothing and do not go traipsing thru the brush. Find a good vantage point and sit and wait the deer will run by within range. Do not smoke. Try not to piss if you can. Bright clothing so you do not get shot by shitheads. That is also a reason to not go traipsing thru the brush. The other advice is the deer have an exellent sense of smell. And for Gods sake do not take woman with you! They do not know when to SHUT THE FUCK UP! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 14392840 United States 10/09/2012 12:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Are you a vegetarian? Factory animals live a horrible life their whole short life. Deer live wild and free and get a good life until they are thinned out a little If you want disease and more then let deer population get out of control. Hunting keeps the herds healthy... |

We are tested each day as to how we treat them. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 5795678 Again, youd have to be a veggie tard, cause where do you think all the meat in the grocery store comes from? That the fairies bring it to you? |

You can be 100% prepared, but if you don't see any deer it doesn't matter. Get advice from the locals, stop in at the closest diner or truck-stop. They will have the best idea where to start and which direction the head. Have fun! |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 14392840 United States 10/09/2012 01:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Put the rifle in your mouth and fire.... Stop killing innocent animals just for fun you idiot Quoting: Anonymous Coward 19996420 OMG, are you really this stupid? Have you ever eaten a steak in your life or a hamburger? There are crowded cattle ranches where they have to live and stand in their own shit and then at processing time they are hit on the head and electrocuted. but many are hoisted up, upside down still alive.. Those that process your meat have to wear rubber boots and suits cause they are working in blood and guts.. Hunting is as natural as it can get to feed ones family. Gimme a break..people are so stupid. |

If you harvest, put a couple bags of ice into the chest cavity immediately after you field dress the animal. Get it cooled down quickly and into cold storage for about ten days before processing... Your taste buds will thank you later. |
