FISHING THE BUCK!
« on: January 21, 2008, 08:40:47 PM »
 :chuckle: Here I was head home from Oregon yesterday, I spotted a dead deer in middle of river, Geez it was 4 ft snow plus almost 15 degree and TOTALLY COLD WATER. I was totally exhusted. I decide to walk thur with pant and boot on. AM I CRAZY  :bash: Yes I was totally crazy! I guess. I believe someone hit car and end up drown in river while few months ago.
here I got it out and decide to work on peeling and bleach this week. Not bad!  :IBCOOL:

That proves deer hunters will do anything for a "buck"! Nice story.

Thats a cool story and pics but I would be careful sharing that story .. Especially on a site like this. Last time I checked it was illegal to take anything that was not a shed..
I would of done it too but probably kept it hush.. You never know who is reading..
But thats cool
If its brown knock it down

You may try arguing that;

1....the entire animal was "shed" (sent forth into the river...)
2....the entire animal "shed" its life by natural process (loss of life in the river-drowning)
3....the animal was "shed" by someone who did not want or need it....
4....the animal "shed" into the river when it died...
5...."your honor, haven't you ever heard of a watershed?"   :IBCOOL:



"shed" defined:

v.tr.
To cause to pour forth: shed tears.
To diffuse or radiate; send forth or impart: shed light.
To repel without allowing penetration: A duck's feathers shed water.

To lose by natural process: a snake shedding its skin.
To rid oneself of (something not wanted or needed): I shed 25 pounds as a result of my new diet.
v.intr.
To lose a natural growth or covering by natural process.
To pour forth, fall off, or drop out: All the leaves have shed.
n.
Something that sheds, especially an elevation in the earth's surface from which water flows in two directions; a watershed.
Something that has been shed.

Not trying to stir the pot but I had a head I found that was obviously old and was taken away from me from an official. So I speak from experience..

I bet that was a site for passing cars! Some crazy guy waded out in 30 degree water cutting the head off a dead, and frozen deer. Can't imagine what all the tree huggers thought about that. BTW if I would have seen it, I would have done the same thing.
