Squirrel while squirrel hunting

With buddy,. Buddy shot one out of tree, the other jumped on top me from tree then for one reason or the other jumped to buddy, I ran as long as I could but quickly had to stop and attempt to catch my breath from laughing so hard.

I'm not proud of it. But I have some what of a morbid sense of humor. Especially back then before o come to know Christ as my Savior. I still laugh out loud from time to time when I'm reminded of it. He screams like a woman!

Hornets
Same buddy dared me to shoot a hornets nest. I did knowing that I was faster than him hands down. Pulled the trigger and didn't look back. Lol, dumb and screams like a woman!

Little white cattapillar
Little white cattapillar hanging from tree while squirrel hunting and early bow. I've only streaked 4 times in my life. All four time were due to them little terrorist!!!!!!!! One little hair of one and I go into this frantic ich, burn, and run for water mode. Closest body of water with no appolagize! Don't care if it's the river, ditch, pond or yoir pool! Which ever is closest will suit me just fine and I don't care of your having a family reunion or not! Same buddy with me each time. Explained to the owner of pool what was going on for me.

Encountered an unusually large Black Indigo Snake when I was 17 in south Texas. It was a very warm December day as I was out looking for a place to sit and watch for deer. The snake was out sunning itself beside a large badger hole. All I could do was stare at this huge snake laying there that seemed to be about 15 feet long and bigger around then my leg. About that time I noticed he was crawling back into the hole and I thought to myself that no one would believe how big this snake was. When there was still about three foot of him still out of the hole a light came on in my head and formed this great idea to catch him so I could show everyone in camp.(wasn't thinking this one through very well) I quickly put my rifle against a tree and grabbed the end of the snake. I tried to pull him out but couldn't gain an inch. After a couple of minutes of this he decided that it was his turn and started backing out of the hole. (this is were the light came on again and I know I'm in over my head) I let go and backed away as he was coming out. As he came out his attention locked on me and he let out the loudest hiss yet. It was like I was in the movie Anaconda as the hair on the back of my neck stood up and my feet seemed to take on a mind of their own we took off running through the brush. I could hear him behind me for a good three hundred yards before he quit chasing after me. I made back to camp and my brother and I sneak back to get my rifle about two hours later. They are known to have a bad temper but that had blood in it's eyes and wanted to teach me a lesson. I guess it did because I have never mess with another one! I thought these were the bad boys in town until I met the roadrunner in my other story a few years later.

got attacked by a wounded deer, a buck at that. lasted about an hour. I had no weapon, tried choking it, breaking its neck, biting its windpipe. I was up in the air more than once. finally got away and came back with a pistol to find it dead.

I had a ruffed grouse peck at my boot and then fly off and land on the peak of a guys roof. You don't see that every day.

Speaking of grouse,I was dive bombed once by a grouse just after his head was blown off with the 410.

Neat. Have you ever seen one 'tower'? I've seen quite a few chicks this spring and early summer. Looking to shape up for a very bird season.

No repercussions for her that time... But I was always a fan of rubbing her nose in her accidents around the house.

I got bumped by either a king salmon or a huge trout up in Oswego NY during the fall when the fish all swim out of Lake Ontario. You're right.... it's Scary.
