An unsuccessful deer hunt

2011 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

This story happened a long time ago it is not a true Darwin because nobody died. My father and uncle and some friends were out poaching deer highly illegal but this was the early seventies. they were in a pick up truck with stock racks when they seen a Big buck in the lights. my uncle Don who is a very good shot leaned out of the window of the truck and shot at the deer. the deer continued to stand right where it was. My father being very Drunk did not believe that Don could have missed this shot and told everybody "the Deer was dead and just doesn't know it. so using careful judgement decided that he would climb up on the stock racks with a knife clenched between his Teeth and don would drive over to the deer and My father would jump off the stock racks and using the knife would cut the deers throat. Now The deer stayed there the whole time and was either compltely Amazed by the Stupidity of these hunters Or it was was the future DA winner for Deer. But the fact is that Deer was in no way hurt or My father jumped on the deers back and went for a wild Ride. extent of injuries when they found him in the tall grass were

3 broken ribs

punture wounds from angry deers antlers

A two inch wider smile from the knife

clenched in his teeth

numerous scratches and gouges from an

angry deer stomping him.

This story is true and is told at family reunions to this day along with other stories of my fathers Good ideas

Sounds a little far fetched to me but it still makes for quite an interesting PA. Thanks, Troy!

Having successfully taken up deer hunting myself, I learned two things: 1) if you shoot at a deer and it doesn't move, you've missed, and 2) if that's the case, take aim and shoot it again! No need to complicate things!
