They are mocking me

[Bullseye]

Went deer hunting a little late this morning.  Looked out the basement window when I was getting dressed and there was nice buck standing 30 yards away at the fence.  Made it to the woods and so nothing.

Was eating dinner tonight and when going back to the kitchen glanced out the window and 5 does were standing by the fence 30 yards out.

What really bothers me is the buck heard the patio door slide open and the gun was in the basement at dinner time.  By the way, it does not go against my ethics to fill a tag from the back porch, just need to make sure you have hunter orange on to be legal.

A few years back my FIL was getting ready to go to the field, having the last cup of coffee before going out the door... he looks out the kitchen window and there was a nice buck in the wheat field about 60 yards from the house. there is a screened in back porch off the kitchen , he opens the kitchen door , uses the door jam for a rest  and shot that deer from inside the kitchen. his wife was up stairs asleep... until he pulled that trigger... scared her half to death, she came down stairs calling him words I didn't think she knew... the rest of us thought it was funny  she forgave him when she saw the deer

My FIL used to stoke up the fireplace, open the big window in his living room and sit in his easy chair watching the Western channel reruns and shoot deer without ever getting up.  In the summer he sat in the same chair and shot groundhogs, and other critters that invaded his garden without ever getting up.  He was an old country boy and in the last few years of his life suffered from heart problems.  He had always spent time afield and this was just a way of still maintaining that way of life he loved.  MIL knew better than to say anything.  

Bullseye, right after I finished building our house and we got moved in, I got up late one morning and went to the kitchen for coffee.  While standing there in my drawers scratchin my butt and waiting for the coffee to get done I got an eerie feeling.  I looked behind me toward the north facing window and low and behold there stood a very large buck with his nose firmly pressed against the glass watching my every move.  Scared me more than him I assure you.  It was only 12' to the door and by the time I got there he had crossed the 520 yards to the woods and was just going in as I got to the porch.  Wife wanted to know if it was legal to take them by causing them to laugh themselves to death.

Korkskru, Redneck you say?  You better believe it!  And proud of it too.

 If my back yard was that populated, I think I would have a gun mounted over each door

 When we were chopping up deer last week, wife said at least we can feed our selfs if the meat prices go to crazy(she helps skin and butcher) If we had deer out back my honey would ask why they were not hanging already. Gotta love my little red neck

 To shoot out of the house. I could only get away with it if it meant deer down

Lonny, This is just something else we have in common.  Back in the '80s I shot a nice 8 pointer and while hanging it up in the garage got a call to leave town for work.  When I came home a week or so later, Tommy, the neighbor down the road came flying up the drive to tell me a story he thought just couldn't wait.  Seems the day after I left, my wife showed up on his front porch covered in blood looking for his help.  She told him she had skinned my deer easy enough but couldn't swing the ax hard enough to get the head off, would he please come help?  He promptly complied with her request and loaded it in the back of the truck for her so she could take it to a local processor to be cut and wrapped.  You see, that is where she drew the line.  She wasn't going to cut and wrap it too.  To this day Tommy would leave his own wife at the drop of a hat to pursue mine should I leave this earth.  If you got a country girl you're ahead of the game.

As far as shooting deer from the house windows. The ugly part would be the fight to see whether she or I got to shoot the deer . Mine is a city girl... redneckified
