I may have blown a gasket myself. Or I may have decided that it was a good morning to clear brush and fire up the chainsaw.

We woke up a couple Sundays ago to find a dude in some of that serious orange perched in tree in the woods behind our house. There’s some question as to where exactly the property line divides our land from a neighbor’s. Apparently the neighbor gave his buddy permission to hunt in our backyard again. I wasn’t too happy for a few reasons. 1) I don’t like to see men in the trees behind our house. 2) I don’t like hunters to be playing with loaded guns anywhere in the vicinity of my children. 3) I’m pretty sure that was MY property he was on 4) I LIKE seeing deer come up in our backyard, and I didn’t want him shooting any of mine.

Reminds me of this little gem–
A guy takes his wife hunting for the first time. Gives her a few instructions and leaves her with the gun. Few minutes later he hears the gun go off followed by a loud argument. He rushes back to his wife to find her screaming at another hunter, “It’s mine!! I shot it!! I saw it first!! It’s mine!!!”
Finally the hunter responds, “Lady, you can have it. But please let me just get my saddle off first.”

I understand that there are a fair amount of people who do hunt to provide for their families. I’m just not so sure the guys I’m passing every day fall into that category.

I shot a rabbit once while hunting with one of the bigger kids. I couldn’t have been any older than 14. It wasn’t a clean kill which is something considering the size of a rabbit. I’ve not done the hunting bit since.

We have our own hunting season routine, much like yours. Kids inside and horses outfitted with orange neckerchiefs and tail socks. We haven’t lost a horse yet but I have found shells in the pasture. Ah, well.

That video ’bout killed me.

I love that video! I have never seen the point of hunting, I would much rather see the deer bounding through a field that shoot one. But I am a girl.

My uncle was a big duck hunter. I think he had more fun making decoys and building his duck blind than anything else.

That sounds like the worst job ever! And definitely one that only a 16 year old could be suckered into doing.

And you see, over here, there’s no class distinction between a person’s affinity to kill something for fun.

I used to duck hunt as a kid, but like you never actually killed anything. I guess I am glad now I did not. I am not a hunter either.

I went deer hunting one year when I was 16. Got my first deer, within the first hour of hunting, and my first shot. Then I spent the next few days “driving” (walking through the woods to drive seer to the people shooting). Real safe… I’m on one side…a guy with a gun on the other, and the deer in the middle. Let’s just say I dropped to the ground more than once because I could hear slugs whizzing past me. Never been again…

Hunting is pretty much unknown of over her aside from the upper classes who seem to enjoy killing things for fun.
