This is my attempt at pictures. So if this works it should be a pic of a deer that was hit by a car right outside the woods I was hunting. The blood is from the bullet used by DNR to finish him off. Oh ya he was walking into my section of woods[:(]. Other side of the road is a harvested corn field.

My old man's backhand used to land,
Hard on the side of my head.
I just learned to stay out of his way.
There's been streetfights, blue lights,
Long nights with the world sittin' on my chest:
It just showed me how much I could take.
Hard times, bad luck.
Sometimes, life sucks.
That's all right, I'm ok.
It ain't nothin' but another day.

I would like to add that he is riding in a DODGE. I had to add that for gagirl.
Awwwww..... you were thinking about me. I feel so special. Hey going on my first bow hunt this weekend with some friends. They talked me into going on the dykes for some hogs.... not quite sure what I am in for yet... but hopefully I will come back. Wish me luck.....
congrats on the deer bang, is that a bullet wound in his neck? [:0]

While looking at the information on hunting these things, I noticed that GA residents can shot 12 deer per season AND can buy tags to hunt alligators! If you didn't have any dam snakes your state would be darn near perfect. [:D]
How cool would it be to hunt a alligator? And here I thought a 63# flathead catfish was something [:o)]......

As for the hogs... they are fun... and there is no limit. I am not sure who told you there was but according to the DNR the regs are :
Private Lands
No closed season; no limit. No hunting over bait, from a vehicle, or at night with a light over 6 volts. A resident Hunting License is required to hunt feral hogs for all resident hunters 16 years old or older, except when hunting on land owned by them or their immediate family (blood or dependent relationship) residing in the same household. Non-residents must meet non-resident license requirements.
National Forest Lands (outside of WMAs)
Hogs may be taken with archery equipment during archery deer hunts, with deer firearms during firearms deer hunts, with turkey firearms during turkey hunts and with small game firearms during small game dates from Aug. 15-Feb. 28. Pursuing, catching or hunting hogs with dogs is not allowed during firearms deer season. No limit. No night hunting. Hunting license requirements must be met. Hunter orange is required during firearms and primitive weapons deer seasons.
Well I only have one requirement on tradeing out... here goes... ouch this hurts.....not sure I can get this out... well I guess yall can come down but would rather trade for a .... crap here goes... d... du... yeah well duck trip... ok I said it... yeah duck trip for David...Damn that hurts... but gotta be the good wife and get something for him ever now and then too. But ya know he can always be out looking for duck while I am looking for a nice buck.. yeah that would work.
Yeah right no snakes... but hey stick with me I actually like snakes.. no problem there.. just keep a fuzzy worm away from me.... those dang things are just unnatural.
As for duck hunts I need new hip waders or a new dog, mostly small numbers of woods and mallards round here, lucky to see groups of 20 or more at a time. Now canadian geese, if we didn't have a 2 per day limit we could shoot them things till the boat sank.
