2 great moments

[pastorpotluck]

Got out this morning before sun up. Arrowed a doe quartering away at 10 yards. Button buck fed right under my stand. I let him pass but not his sister. Is that discrimination based on gender?:grin: Drug her to the truck. Got home and changed and then grabbed my keys but my cell phone wasn't with them which is my regular habit. I look everywhere. I call my cell on the house phone. Not in the house. Not in the truck. Not in my hunting clothes. So I drive back to the timber. I walk back to the trail thinking about where I was when my wife called. I meet Yancy and he's coming out but helps me look. Where I got the call I found my lighter but no phone. So I go back to where I field dressed the doe. Then we heard a beep which means that my cell has an unanswered call. I look around and its nowhere that I can see but I know where it's at. Yep, fell out of my pocket and it was under the gut pile.:way: The look on Yancy's face, priceless.

[TheMadCatter]

Not as bad as me dropping mine in the creek it still works! I've lost it more than one time.

 

[JakeWym]

Under the gut pile...that is hard to beat.

 

[Cooter]

Hope there wasn't any open entrails.

Mobile Cooter

 

[pastorpotluck]

Nope

Cooter,
It was all in the boiler room. The phone just had a little blood on it. Wiped it off and it's fine. I wonder how long the phone would have stank had it been a gut shot?

 

[Cooter]

I wasn't questioning your shot. I've seen and made a few bad cuts when gutting a deer. One I like to refer to as the green volcano .....it was bad

been there. done that. makes me gag every time!

 

[pastorpotluck]

Cooter,
No offense taken. I've nicked the green with both arrow and knife. Worse stink ever was on a fresh doe who had been chowing down on alfalfa. Now that was a stink even though I retrieved her quickly as I saw her go down. I know with a name like Cooter you've got to be good folks.

 

[turtlshell]

i've had a few knives and saws end up on the "bottom-side" before, but thankfully not my phone.

Glad you found it...it's a real pain to reprogram all your contacts after you lose your cell.

 

[pastorpotluck]

Done that

I had to get a new phone when I dropped my old one in a lake while fishing from a canoe. 10-4 on the hassle of putting all the contacts back in. It was fun however to call my old number and have the message go to voice mail when I knew it was underwater.
