[the new guy]

So I'm the new guy.. I haven't been deer hunting since I was in third grade and I went with my dad. (I'm 30 now)

I wanted to share my morning.

I was in the stand locked and loaded and ready to go by about 5:45. I sat and waited for the sun to come up. at about 6:15 the sun was starting to come up, and I saw movement out of the corner of my eye, I turned to the left, and saw the biggest deer in the world, as I'm waiting for my shot I see two more move in behind that are BIGGER! I can barely keep my hands from shaking long enough to aim.

At this point I'm trying to call myself down, and decide which one I want, When all of a sudden, the biggest of the three Moos at me...

I was about 3 pounds of pressure away from shooting one of my parents neighbor's dairy cows... :bag:

good thing you didnt pull the trigger.

it would have been some good eating

You wouldn't have to worry about "gaminess" in your meat flavor.

CATTLE SEASON??? :surprised:

Thank God you didn't shoot...

 

[the new guy]

I was told this week, that they are in fact beef cattle, and not dairy. so yea, would definately have been good eats. still neighbor probably wouldn't have been very happy.

This thread had me rolling.. I got a crazy uncle who watched some cows in a thick fog for awhile wondering if they were deer.. An hour later the fog lifts and hes mad cuz hes been watching cows graze thinking the whold time.. "man thats a big bodied deer"
