Funny Quotes From Hunting Trips

Here’s one that haunts me for what I didn’t say.

I was deer hunting with a small group years ago. We made a loop (no deer) and then came back to the dirt road. Here comes a road hunter, when he got next to us he stopped and said, “You guys lookin’ fer a feller?”

Evidently someone in his party found a guy who got lost, the road hunter was checking to see if he was one of our guys. Nope, we’re all here.

But man, what a great setup line! We talked about it later, I should have said not really, but what did you have in mind?

We still talk about it, 20 years on.

Out duck hunting with a buddy before work. All set up and we had a drake canvasback fly within 20 yards of us. 6 shots fired and the duck never veered. Buddy turns to me and says "Blanks"

Duck hunting in North Dakota with a big group and a few of us had swan tags. The guys that didnt have tags kept messing with the guys that had tags saying swans were coming when they weren’t so we started ignoring them. Towards the end of the hunt one of the guys says “swans to the left.” Thinking it was BS I glance back, say oh $hit and barely get one BB shell in my gun before they’re in front of us. I pulled up then said damnit they’re too far. The guy next to me said “dude, you gotta try” so I pull up, take my shot at the swan that is now easily 80-100 yards out, it folds, and we all went crazy. Upon recovery it had a single BB right in the head.

Definitely shouldn’t have taken that long of a shot, but it was wild. Now whenever we see an animal way outta range, we joke “dude, you gotta try!”

I was deer hunting out in MT a few years back and stopped at this tavern that I remembered had really good pizza. I ordered one and when she brought it out I asked her for a fork and knife. She says "What, are you from Wisconsin?" And I had to say "Why yes, I am". I still don't know how or why that transpired.

As we were packing out a good early rifle muley I shot, I let my buddy (disabled vet) lead out packing the front quarters. I caught up as he sent a crossbow bolt and saw it sink in a buck. He turned around and said, "Well, hell yeah. I've never shot a deer with another deer on my back before!"
Just 45 mins before he debated on "packing" his crossbow. I looked at him and said, "how many times have we seen deer when we weren't supposed too?"
It was a great day.

Back when I was in my early 20's my dad, his buddy and myself were sitting on top of a steep knob under a tree waiting to see if any elk would pass through the area. For a little context my dad is 5'3" /240ish and is a pretty serious person and he shoots a very nice browing BAR.

After sitting for a while we decided to get up to move down the ridge. When we stood up my dad kind of staggered, myself and his buddy looked at him and in a serious tone he said "WELL F@#K ME!!" and proceeded to fall down and roll 20' down the hillside. Apparently, his legs had fallen asleep while sitting there and he couldn't get them to cooperate on the steep hillside. I'll never forget him tumbling down the hill rifle and all, we were crying laughing at him after he told us his legs had fallen asleep and we realized he was OK

Can’t believe we are 4 pages in and no one has shared a story about walking out with one sock or minus a shirt sleeve.

Lent a buddy a pair of gloves one morning while we were deer hunting. Get back to the truck, and he hands me one glove. I'm like, where's the other one? him: I had to "use" it. me: Wtf I'm going to do with one glove...
