Quit finding random deer stuck in trees during our annual hunts.

What a waste. I never found one like that but have found a couple that got tangled in fences. When their hind legs get tangled in the wire it either makes for a long slow death or a quick one if predators show up. Bob
He was teasing me. I shot it about 40 yards from there. I have a tendency to shoot deer who land in a tree after they run. 😆
He says I don't shoot them. I just find them like that. 🤣
In Michigan that would be a 2 1/2 year old and they don't get much better eating than that. Congrats on getting your freezer stocked. I have a couple that size around the house but I don't hunt here. It is more like grocery shopping with a gun than it is hunting. There are quite a few neighboring hunters around here and they never seem to let a deer get beyond a year and a half so the couple I am seeing is a rarity. Bob
Congrats susie.....looks like some good eating in your future !
I've seen a few like that, pretty crappy way to go....
Congrats
Front view and yes he will be some nice eating. Had a ham in some stew while down in Texas.
LOL. First I've heard of such a thing happening. Too funny. Oh, and buck, congrats.
I’ve shot deer and had them run into a tree or fence but never wedged into a tree, that’s unreal. Was it hard getting him out?
This doe went down quick but a stick ended up in her mouth
Seems like most of the deer I shoot end up dead in the deepest ditch or in the creek !!
@danielgage I turned her for you.
Don't know how that deer didn't see that tree, It has a big orange ribbon tied around it.
Second deer, I thought it was biting that branch so wouldn't slide down that steep hill. 🎿🎿🎿
A hunting buddy shot a 9-point buck that ran to a young pine planting. He died standing against a few trees in a standing position. My friend said he almost shot it again because it was still on all fours! 🦌
