herd of a deer bite a guy in the ear/neck...lol ... I got the recording somewhere...

I've seen deer walking/browsing through some marshes on lake somerville....think they were fish'n

[D12]

I had a guy tell me that a good buck could not go under a fence or through a 3 strand barbwire fence. They always jump and he knew it too.
I have seen video of a 140 go under a fence like it wasnt there.

Another guy told me deer are from outerspace!!

My 85 year old friend told me that mule deer have feet like a mule.Thats where they get their name.You know, it made sense

Deer have ears in their feet.

The rancher on my lease told me that:
a) Deer are not bothered by cows
b) The cows will tell you where the deer are.

My response to a) was I wish you would tell the deer that.
And to b) Maybe I should have asked the cow that was bedded down under my feeder..

Deer have ears in their feet.

My neighbor told me that too!

I've got one for ya,

Ok, you know early in the morning you can hear the mourning doves (sounds like a low long hoot) while they are still on the roost. I have been told that noise is a doe calling a missing fawn/yearling......AAAAAAAAHHHHHH HAHAHA!

YEAH RIGHT!!!

That big bucks always walk into the wind, if this were true they would all be in oklahoma or the beach depending on the time of year.

Had a guy tell me he would never shoot a deer in the head or neck, due to the deer release a chemical, when head or neck shot, that makes the meat tough and taste bad. Oh brother

Great thread,

I have nothing good to add.
But do know of a helluva lot of people that still believe once a spike, always a spike.

Had a guy tell me that "if you pee in a spot deer will avoid it for 5 years". True quote. He seemed like a smart guy.

I had a Father-in-law in Ohio once who told me he hunted Mule-Tail Deer in Pennsylvania.
