Hunting season opened at 7:03 this morning. By 9:00, I was field-dressing a buck. Third year in
a row I've gotten a deer before lunchtime on opening day -- it's nice to be able to hunt private
property after all these years hunting in state forests, along with a hundred thousand other
people. Should wind up with close to a hundred pounds of venison in the freezer.

Life is good.

100lbs? Geezus - that must have been a monster buck! Post pics. Most
average NE bucks only yield around 60lbs tops.

According to Jeff Foxworthy, then, he might be a redneck. That's one of the criteria: "if
you've ever shot a deer from your house..."

No monster; by Midwestern standards, it's only medium-sized, even leaning a bit toward the
small side of medium. No pics to post -- it wasn't big enough to bother taking any.

I will say this, though: it's the biggest four-point buck I've ever seen. I was *really* surprised
there wasn't at least one more set of tines on the antlers.

Can't eat the horns anyway. Congratulations! I haven't been out at all
this year, but I do keep an eye on my woods through my den doors - I'm not
worried about being called a redneck for shooting them right off my deck.

Around here the average field dressed buck goes around 130lbs. Yields
around 60lbs of real meat (maybe between 60 and 80lbs), as I said before. A
180lbs buck is a big buck around here. 200lbs is an absolute monster. I've
weighed deer before, but I've never actually weighed the total meat taken
off of them. I've weighed parts of the meat - the amount of hamburger for
example.

The "Bambi" complex has lead to serious problems in several
suburban areas, especially in the Eastern half of the USA.

"Bambi" has no natural predators in the Eastern USA thus they have
multiplied like rats.

Here in the West, we have mountain lions.

Parklands in the cities have been over run and have become a real
problem.

Farmers OTOH, can get a little relief by opening their lands to
hunters.

Know a couple farmers in Michigan who would be happy if the hunters
shot ALL the "Bambis" on their farms.

Then the coyotes are not doing their job. I believe the number one
cause of auto insurance claims is deer collisions.

You mentioned the Bambi complex. It is difficult to argue with a 6 year
old, when you are on a hike, that Walt Disney is not the ultimate
authority on the life of a deer. Especially when they are aware a
second fawn is following you 10 or 20 feet off of the trail as you try
to take pictures of the mother and her other fawn

Nope - they can't keep up with the deer population. They are simply a
natural predator of deer - that's all I stated in response to Lew's comment.

we (farmers and ranchers) also have the out clause that allows us to
'drop them on site' year round if they are endangering livestock. Yep,
deer endanger my live stock by knocking down fences. So away they go.

Florida Gators and Pythons? Of course, neither can be considered
natural deer predators, but you could export some of Florida's
predators out west to control the deer problem. Once the deer are all
gone, those exported predators should die off pretty quick.

Seems they are becoming less of a natural predator to the deer population -

i had a deer hit me a few months ago. small female mule deer just before
sunrise. i saw it out of the corner of my eye coming up out of a ditch
on the side of the road, slammed on my brakes and was dead stopped when
it hit me on my vette's front quarter panel, rolled off the hood, and
kept on going.

I was listening to a talk show show Wed. and they we're deep frying
turkeys to aution off for charity. The guy who was cooking had his 13
& 14 year old daughters there who had raised them. The host asked
them if it bothered them to see them getting offed and cooked. They
just giggled and said nah tastes too good. I'd much rather eat an
animal raised the whole time on the farm then one that's been through
a feed lot. I've got sympathy for animals that go thru that process.

Hypocrite.


What about the two deer you eliminated? I don't want to stir things up,
but don't the deer have any rights (maybe they were here first)?

No kidding Bill, I was just reading over the "deer" bill of rights.....

Yes, it has been observed that when things come down to choices for
people or for nature, nature usually loses--just look out your window
and imagine how it looked 100 years ago.

I have heard that Cows has a pretty good bill of rights plan in India.
If someone would like to set up something here to protect some deer, I
wouldn't object. From what I have heard, the native americans had alot
respect for nature--but we kicked them the hell off *our* property! I'm
sure not before a lot of soul-searching though.

Was the hide of the two eliminated deer discarded as a matter of
convenience? We are a wasteful lot.




You should see the bill the mosquito's.

Oh and that beef and chicken you eat...

Nah! You'd never see me coming. Who'd suspect someone doing a
wheelchair drive-by?

You tipped your hand. I'll be looking for it now. g

I hope I don't read about some hunter knocking off people in
wheelchairs.

As long as you don't go out in the woods dressed up as a deer you'll be ok.
