Here you go Bone, Get yourself a GO PRO HERO 2, that should help if your ever caught like that again, I think it would be awesome to see some of your adventures on video, hell I'd even chip in toward the purchase !!!

What a great story! I always wonder about scars, antlers, etc....untold stories of the woods/sage.....I bet that deer has a nice scratch on its back. Knarly...

   Getting the whole ordeal on camera would've been awesome!

Dude,

The extra 3 lbs on your hip is very comforting when you get in those kind of situations... makes up for all the lugging it around when you do not need it, in a big hurry!  A .357 is not that heavy..  just saying, do not want to end up in the litter box later. 

   Thanks for giving me the visual in my head and definitely glad you were packing something.

Thanks for sharing Bone we all enjoy reading your stories you always seem to find some incredible stuff out there.  I guess if most of us put half the time you do in the woods we would as well.

I found a great deal on the gopro, and if bone is interested in putting it to use ill grab one and send it his way? ? Any one interested in helping pay for it? ?

Awesome story. I love reading stuff like that on here. Experiencing that first hand is once in a lifetime.

Great story, Bone.  Too bad you couldn't get some pics, but the way you tell the story, it's like I was there.  Sounds like something Marlin Perkins
would get himself into.  Good thing you made it unscathed.  Hopefully you pack a sharp knife like I do.

Cool story hope to see a cat in the woods someday

The absolute best photos we ever take are for our memory only it seems.

Rats!!! I feel for ya. Your a good photographer.
