I start out is a great comfortable ready for anything position, until the first apendage falls asleep, then i spend the the rest of the time trying to move/shift to be comfortable without alerating aything to my presence, which usually results in me being in a very comfortable but very usless postion when game comes by, to which i hold still in pain waiting for my leg to fall off becasue it is dead asleep.
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

I almost always have my camera with me so I'll spend a lot of time taking photos and have even recorded my own hunting show of seeing nothing but squirrels, birds and even a porcupine.  I once slipped into a little spot on the edge of a clearing about a hour prior to first light, then around 11am and shot a doe about 50 yards away from me  :chuckle:.  That was a once in a live time type of thing and I still laugh about it.  I also find that chewing on sunflower seeds will help keep me up.  Just dont fall alsleep with a mouth full of seeds, thats a choking hazzard.

I don't take my phone with me in the field. Don't need it and am afraid i'd loose the dang thing. Don't need to see the time. Up before the sun comes up and don't get back to camp till it goes down. I'll take a nap when i'm watching a clearing waiting for the animals to show up. Always been curious as to how many animals i miss when i'm napping. I'll also start to move to a different area even if it's just 50 yards away it gives me something to do. I want to get a camera and start taking pictures out in the field when i'm hunting.

This is a picture of me in my last deer stand (I caught this guy about to poach a groundsquirrel, so I took care of it). 

You must have had to use about 50 of those face paint containers.   

Bet that guy won't poach any more ground squirrels now that you've cut his nipple off.  :chuckle:

It's actually feces (doubles as cover scent).  And I cut off his nipple to disarm him.  He had a squirrel gun hanging off his nipple ring....

Well, after 2 years of playing "awww-shucks" while the YARs banty back and forth about whether or not I am worthy of the title... I graciously accept your nomination and confirmation.
I would like to thank the Army for sufficiently twisting my mind to the point where nothing that comes out of it doesn't offend someone.
I would like to thank my talent coach, my voice coach, my dance coach, my makeup team, my personal trainer, my agent and of course all the "little people" that helped me on the way up (and by little people, I am of course referring to the stars of midget porn).
I would like to thank everyone up at elk camp, for putting the finishing touches on me in final preparation for my nomination.  I will never forget you all down there, still stuck within the confines of the non-YAR.
And last but not least, I would like to thank "The Academy" for my nomination and confirmation (The "Academy" being of course, JimKD8
and Runamuk). 
I am looking forward to meeting with the YAR Godfather in his office and being "made" (and if there is plastic on the floor when I get there, I am %$#! outta there..).

OK, enough acceptance speech.  I need a title...  (I am sooooo friggin' excited....I don't have to "hold back" anymore....)

I humbly and graciously accept the Title of Chosen YAR.

I was going to go with Genghis YAR.  But I like Chosen YAR.
(...and I don't want to choose my own name, then have to go talk to the Godfather and get the "...you come to me after this thing is already done..." speech, that ends up with me getting kissed on the cheek and then buried on some farm in upstate New York...)
