On my way home from Graham I stopped at a little country store to get some more ice to go on my doe. The lady at the counter was maybe 60ish . when I told her I needed 6 bags of ice she said "O did you get something". I told her I did. She said she really missed her husband hunting and having all that meat in the freezer as he wasn't able to hunt anymore. I asked her if she would like to have the doe I had harvested . she studied on it for a minute and with her best poker face she asked "how much"? I asked her if she was willing to trade me a piece of the pizza they had on the counter. I have not made anyone that happy in a long time. Everyone in the store gathered around to help transfer the meat from my cooler to a couple of bags we put in the drink cooler of the store. I don't know how many fo those folks were pro hunting when they went in the store but I'm sure they all were when they left.

Way to go Buff, I don't care what Tinman says, you are two notches above me at least.
My fav part is that you traded for pizza, I would have done the same thing, except maybe held out for an egg roll to boot.

Excellent gesture. Not something you hear of every day.
Buff is the new Fred Bear and Howard Hill combined.Comment

Kudos Buff. You can share a fire with me anytime. I truly respect your abilities and kindness. Thanks for being a giver and not a taker.

It is great for you to share. May your arrows all fly true and may the wind always be in your sails. May the big one come by and give you a broad side.Comment

Very thoughtful of you and there will be one well fed family this winter.
Love the "pizza trade"...you got your priorities right.
We have an opportunity to help feed the town of Benavides with some of our management requirements. It feels so good to provide many families with some of the best meat they get all year. We get tamales, in place of pizza. (our only hope is the meat is from the deer we provide...you never know!). Your gesture goes a long way! You just set the standard in "class".Comment
