Dennis, PULLLLEEESSSE remember me when you get to cleaning that deer... I mean please remember Falcon. I'll come and haul off all the goodies you won't keep. Heck, I'll build you a tree stand and you can cull some of the buggers off of our property!
Dennis - don't tell me there's any sport in shooting tame deer from a tree stand. As you said - you could walk up to them and hit them with a bat. If you're really gonna hunt, at least make it sporting - where the animal has as much fair chance as you do. Husband shot a javalina with a bow years ago - got it first shot - out in the desert tracking them. We ate every piece of that pig and he had the head hung up. That's sporting. Just a thought........
Lynne, I completely understand where you are coming from and normally agree... However, we have an unusual situation around here where the deer population is so heavy and they have become very accoustomed to humans. Every night we can go out in our yard and have six to eight deer - at least, browsing on the landscape. (We spend big bucks on stinky stuff to try and protect our gardens...) During hunting season they do become far more alert and take more to the woods however, so it isn't quite like shooting fish in a barrel.
If your landscape was being destroyed by pigs, might your husband decide it would be prudent to thin the herd?

just interested in meat and a couple of less deer to hit on the road. during the rut we had three people wreck their cars close to where I work. They've been eating my bushes and spinning up my dogs in the middle of the night. The sport would be to get my gravitationally challenged ass up the tree at Oh Dark Thirty
Lauren, I think bow season begins in Sept. here... I'm pretty sure Dennis is using the summer to practice and build his tree stand and figure out how to get his butt up the tree.
