The marks of a good (and rare) hunter.
THX It's often hard for me to pull the trigger.

Stop skirting around and debate.

Can't come in on the tail end of this one....
Your choice.
Man that was prime....lol
I am done....I'll just hoof it to the door.
haha....Good one....Glad we didn't shank anything.
We were careful in what we select.
this thread is full of cow pies....trail bisquits....and meadow muffins....
Went thru that with a horse that broke thru a fence one time. Damn that horse could run and jump. A big young race horse. $25,000 horse. Was blocked in an alley by pickup trucks. Jumped the trucks. Someone did get a rope around it's neck. Jerked it right out. Police cars and people in 4X4s chasing, fearing it'd run out on the highway causing an accident as it ran thru alleys and the railroad tracks a block over. Able to jump short fences, the vehicles simply couldn't follow, people scrambling to try to figure where it was off to.
An older fellow who always had raised horses, a rancher, finally convinced the police and everyone of the obvious solution.
Just stop chasing it. "Leave it alone and it will go home. Its running because you're chasing it."
About a quarter hour later like appearing out of nowhere it strolled back thru the fence it has busted and headed straight for the water trough.
Yeah, chasing a cow with sirens running and shooting at it will have it keep running. But it was probably an exciting chase.
Ok, I'm Moo'vin on....
So the cow escapes a slaughter house only to be frantically chased and killed by cops? What about tranqs? Animal control doesn't have any? This cow deserved a meadow...
Please throw! please throw!Far be it for me to throw any stones in this thread.....
Good one.this thread is full of cow pies....trail bisquits....and meadow muffins....
This was one determined cow....Wow....
When we take a deer, we thank the deer for his or her sacrifice and God for the blessing of food for the freezer.
I always pray for a quick, clean death.
Big difference between trophy hunting and hunting for meat.
Exactly. I've killed 2 this last month, one deer and a pig. The deer took about 5 jumps, about 30 feet and dropped dead. The pig took a close range shot down thru the front of the brain (dead already, just didn't know it) had it's throat cut and was bled out in about 15 seconds. Pigs (and cows) are interesting that way. If you take out the front of the brain they are dead. You will get no stimulus response, but the heart is controlled at the base of the brain so a quick cut will allow the heart to pump out most of the blood.
Not Thumper because he was animated and I don't think the paint would be too tasty.
Rabbits need to be eaten or we all die.
