Usually the victim is Grandpa, who as been doing this all his life.  He shoots 
a deer, tracks it until it falls, then carries the carcass back to camp.  At 
least he tries to.  Usually find him face down in the snow.

It's that healthy lifestyle they lead up there. All those brats and beer.

Maybe a bit hard on those who find him, but   not a bad way for grandpa 
to go. Out doing what he enjoys.

[MBZ] First Casualty of the WI Deer Hunt

2013-11-25 Thread Dan Penoff
Every year someone dies on the first day or two.  It's either some old duffer 
blowing out his heart after he shoots and tracks down his kill, or a guy who 
trips and discharges his rifle into the back of someone's head.

It's funny this year.  Or is it?

Re: [MBZ] First Casualty of the WI Deer Hunt

2013-11-25 Thread Dan Penoff
Beats me. I lived there for over eight years and I never heard of the guy.

Deer hunting in WI is like a religion. Nothing gets in the way of the devout 
followers. Miles of rural interstate are literally bumper to bumper the day 
before the season opens.

At Kohler they had a lottery for the employees to see who got to take off work. 
If not, the plants would shut down for lack of personnel.

It's like the first hard freeze. Within a day or two, someone dies from 
drowning either by walking out on the ice to fish or by trying to run their 
snowmobile on the ice.

Darwin wins every time.

It sounds like the typical out-of-shape situation where he exerts himself
too much, then rests and dies.  A shame.  You can't just go out on opening
day and sit on your butt the rest of the year.  Hunting involves a certain
amount of exertion and you need to be at some minimal level of condition for
it.

Greg, who enjoys venison, but does not think it is to die for.

When I was at camp 2 weeks ago we walked an average of 5 miles a day. 
Fortunately the dog keeps me getting regular exercise at home.
