Yup, I had tags for them. You can only take 1 buck though.

Now if you were REALLY good... you would've placed the shot such that it died instantaneously and without too much pain. Break the neck in one shot. At least that's what the hunters on TV said they did.

Yesterday, but there's plenty of meat in places called shops/grocery stores/whatever. There's no need to run around with a gun wasting wild animals and creaming your pants about it (unless you're retarded). Some achievement killing an animal with a shotgun, does he want a medal?

Go one on one with a bear instead. That'd be a good pay-per-view, not very long but guaranteed to be funny.

now now everyone.... no need to flame this one. Everyone knows that the meat in the grocery stores conveniently walked up to a mechanized plant before dropping over dead from old age (at the ripe age of 2 years old, thanks to hormones and antibiotic treatments) MmmSkyscraper is right. There's no skill involved in hunting whatsoever - the deer just walk up to you and stand still - just watch 30 seconds of any hunting show Obviously television is where Mmm gets his knowledge from.
/end sarcasm

Actually, yeah, I'd be willing to bet that Mmm would starve to death if it weren't for grocery stores. 5 bucks says he couldn't even draw my bow back at the slow speed required to not spook a deer, let alone shoot an arrow accurately. And, give him 30 minutes of carrying a shotgun like Rip's in the woods, always alert and ready to shoot, and he'll be crying "mommy, this is too heavvvy, my arms are tired." Heck... even if he did somehow find a suicidal deer willing to walk up to him, I'd bet he'd still starve.

Not to mention that it's cold in Upstate NY. Last Saturday I sat in a tree stand for 5 hrs and didn't take a shot. When I got in the stand at 6:45 AM it was 19 degrees F and the wind was whipping.

I don't think they felt much pain. One dropped where I shot him and the other went about 10 ft and then dropped. I think both shots severed their spines.

Hunter want a deer to drop instantaneously so that they don't end up wlking over a few mountians waiting for the deet to bleed out and die then getting to drag the deer back to a road.

We both get what we want then. You get a deer that's not gonna wander far far away and then die. I get the notion that some deer isn't gonna be bleeding itself out across a mountain range.

Nah, the guy can pick up a deer that someone ran over and take a picture with it. It's too late now. Take the pic before it's in the freezer next time. And make sure it's not from the road

What's wrong with from the road? They're just as tasty! I had 3 road-killed deer in the freezer last year, with the one I shot. Just finished off the venison about 2 weeks ago.

Congrats Rip. 70yrds is a decent distance for a slug.
As for a bow being much more fair: just as deadly inside of 40 yards.

Thanks, Doc. I surprised myself with that shot.

This was first season hunting. It's a blast! If if I don't getting anything, I enjoy the experience.

Looking forward to trying bow next year.

Go crap in your own thread. The meat you get from the styrofoam tray doesn't magically appear there. The deer that exist need predation in order to not overpopulate their area.
You need to have your priority's examined, bend over.

I thought you could only shoot a buck? or is that at certain parts of teh year and in certain states?

Oh, and to the person who said that "overpopulation was how it was;" there are more deer now than there were when Christopher Columbus was here, so overpopulation of deer wouldn't be a good idea.

There are more deer in America now than there were when Columbus "discovered" the New World. They're overpopulated all over the place.

Also, the words are spelled "deer" and "shotgun", and if they wanted people to be able to harvest more deer, they would make the "modern firearm" season longer, and let you use rifles. I know here in Ohio you have to use a shotgun (or a pistol of a minimum caliber/barrel length) during the week long gun season. The blackpowder and bow seasons are longer, though.

If you want to help reduce the population, you need to shoot does, not bucks.

First one looks to be a decent sized doe. Tip for future picture taking: pictures of game that's shot shouldn't have a lot of blood in the photo, as in the first one, and pictures of the chest cavity opened up should also be avoided (it offends the squeamish) Otherwise, you occasionally convert neutral people into anti-hunting people.

Weather is perfect in NY now for those... skin them and leave them hanging for 4 or 5 days. (note to those who don't know why: aging the meat makes it more tender - not to display them as trophies) I'm hoping it doesn't warm up too much. With any luck, I'll have a shot at a deer tomorrow or Tuesday. Otherwise, it's the late bow season for me. I just haven't had time to hunt with a few grad papers due.

Hey look, another expert!

The MANDITORY use of Shotguns in many states are to:

a. make it HARDER to hunt and thus cut down on the average harvest per hunter so more licenses can be sold.
b. decrease the distance stray rounds cover, thus make it safer in flatland areas like the midwest.
c. both of the above.

Don't hurt yourself thinking too much.
 

I look to hit deer with my winterbeater, then bring them to the state trooper station to get tagged.
Free meat.

WTF are you talking about?:frown:

You have obviously never deer hunter with a shotgun using slugs. Also there are states out there that do not allow hunting with rifles. Wisconsin being one of them.
