Somebody shot my deer.
« on: November 04, 2013, 08:36:00 PM »
So I make a nice hearty stew from one of the hams of the deer I shot a week or so ago.

While I'm enjoying my stew and thinking what a great cook I am, I bite something I think must be a little piece of bone.

Nope.  Not a bone.

 

Looks like a little .22 to me.

Some people make me sick.  Glad to see you killed the deer the right way.

A friend of mine took a deer that had a nice 1/4" hole crossways through his nose.  Mostly healed.  We figured someone tried with a .22 Hornet or .22LR in the summer.

Some people are idiots. But then again perhaps some people are just that desperate.    :dunno:

Not to hijack your thread, but what kind of adapter is that in the tighter shark?

No sweat.  It's a 5/16's aluminum I had laying around.  A little small for the ferrule, but works fine.  A carbon or 2018 will actually fit up into the ferrule.

I shot a doe a couple of years ago. When I shot she whirled a the sound of the bow like a bomb had went off. I got lucky and she went down quick. After butchering her I found that the hind quarter had been freshly peppered with some #8 bird shot.

We used to have an old woman with a 2 acher garden in the county. She was about 80 years old and used to shoot deer in the belly when they were in her garden with a .22 cal rifle.    :rolleyes:  She is not missed.
  With that being said that deer just could of bedded down range from people just shooting targets. Hard to say.

Deer are one tough animal.  We have had threads before where folks have talked about all the different objects they have found in deer they have taken.  Broadheads,  pieces of arrow shaft, bullets...etc.  My wife's uncle owned a meat processing plant and they got super busy during deer season,  he had tons of stories about all the objects he had found in deer.  He had a small box full of all the things he had collected over the years.  Strangest one he told me about,  was a deer that had a welding rod run about have way up his fore leg.  He figured a farmer was in the field making repairs on his machinery- it is common for the farmer to stick the rods in the ground next to his work so he can easily grab them as he uses up the rods.  Deer probably jump a fence and came down on the rod,  driving it up into his leg.

Deer are aged in some states be the layers of no. 6 shot.
