Got stepped on...

Longarrow that is cool...I have been close enough to hear an elk's stomach growl and hear their knees pop when they walk, and now been stepped on by a forky, but a wet-willie from a mulie is WILD

That's awesome! I've had them lick the ladder right underneath my stand on occasion, but never close enough to touch. You'll never forget that hunt.

a few years back I sat down against a stump at the side of a woods road and fell asleep. Something woke me and I opened my peepers to find two whitetail fawns sniffing at my boots. Their mom was 15 yards or so off in the brush watching.

Why I once had this deer..... Just kidding!    

It would be hard to top that one.  That was just too cool.

Now thats a awsome experience right there. Very neat, thanks for sharing it.

I once had a black bear bite the sole of my boot while I was taking a nap. I was moose hunting in St. James Bay near Juneau, AK and was taking a noon time nap under a couple of big fir trees.  I was awakened by a pretty good tug on my foot.  I sat up and there was this young black bear staring wide eyed at me.  It took a second or two for both of us to figure out the situation.  He backed off, woofed at me and hauled tookus.

I guess I had stepped on a dead salmon or something.

And I thought the whole picture of a hunter asleep in the woods with a buck of a lifetime standing a few feet away was just a crule joke that a hunters wife dreamed up.  Sounds like now, thats just a real as real can be.

Really cool stories to tell grandkids about right there.  I can hear it now, kids back when I was able to hunt, I was so good, (fill in your story here).
