-Hit behind the "front shoulder" Does a deer have a back shoulder?
-Goofiest one to me: "toboggan". In the south I guess that's a hat. To the rest of the world it is a sled!
- Use of "stick and string" when a guy carries a compound really bugs me! (And I am not a compound hater!)

Since I just got back from a trip to the Grand Canyon, all these terms about hollers, draws, etc., got me to thinking. Now THIS is a holler!

Michigan 11 point = spike Michigan 12 point = spike on one side fork on the other split tail = doe Muy Grande = a very big buck me and a buddy hunted in Oklahoma for 3 years and never had a shot Here in Michigan the yoopers (those that live in the upper peninsula) call those of us that live in the lower peninsula "trolls" because we live below the bridge. The yoopers sing a song about a "tirdy point buck"... you guessed it; 3 on one side, broke off on the other. fun stuff here!

When we turkey hunt we go out and get "buried up next to a log."
If we only have a couple of guys deer hunting, one of us goes and gets "buried up" and "gets quiet" and the other one "makes a circle." This involves "sneaking" through the property in a zig zag pattern in sort of a two person deer drive.
My grandfather refers to any centerfire cartridge smaller than. 243 as a "needle blower."
