Now that I'm retired, I go back home to Wisconsin for deer hunting. First time in 31 years last season. After the first three days of gun season, we will do some drives. I was on a drive and had finished my push to the county road. People were starting to gather after the drive. I thought back to all those times when the boys were gathering at the completion of the drive, a buck would come running by thumbing his nose and of course nobody was ready. So, while waiting for the boys to gather, I walked up the slight rise off the road, making sure I was 100 feet off the road. Stood there for a bit. Leaned the gun on tree to eat a chocolate bar. Bad move. I hear leaves crunchin' and here comes a deer through the timber about half speed, that trot and bound BS. Of course I had to look down to grab the gun. Get on the deer in the thick stuff but not sure if it's got horns, not a monster for sure. Deer stops broadside at about 40 yards. Big deer. Easy chip shot. Head is not visible. Nobody has a doe tag. Never did see it's head clearly. Deer wins. AAAaaaaargH!!!! I'm quite sure I'm not the only one to have had hunting defulgalties. Anybody willing to fess up?
