You mean like trying to figure out what those birds are doing chirping in the middle of the swamp lake you probly really shouldn't of been in and finding out they were baby alligators and catching one and putting it in your pocket and then the momma goes all crazy gator on ya and tries to eat ya and then you have to shoot her in the throat with an arrow and you're thinking about ways for the searchers to find the body and thinking maybe if you stick an arrow in the air as you go done through the vegetation mat you were creeping along on they will see it?
Nah - I don't know anything really crazy.
I did get knocked down by a momma pig several times once. Bow went one way - 575 dozen arraz went the other. Held onto one and poked her in the face with it about 5 dozen times as I ran round and round a big ole tree. It was not at all fun. Kinda make you realize you're not really a badazz after all.

Lol geno that's hilarious about the sow and 575 dozen arraz . I nearly tripped over a 385 pound boar once but I feed it a triple shock to the face at about 5 feet. Another time I was walking out and I found myself under attack from a emu (or how ever u spell it). I thought It was an ostrich!!!! Those dang thing are mean . Any how that thing came running at like Brian bosworth so I shoot it 3 times with 20 ga 00 and the freaking thing did the Ole crappie flop for a few minutes I won't go any further into how I had to finished it off but it was brutal I felt bad . We did eat it though.

I was young and stupid (now I'm just old and stupid) and hunted pigs in a spot on the Tombigbee River where two big creeks run out into the river. That and a couple three four oxbow lakes make a really interesting and probly a little dangerous kind of place if you're not careful. It's real low in elevation and floods in the spring so it looks a lot like a sure enough swamp even though most of it is bottomland hardwoods.
I can't get enough. I'm out there hunting and on about day number four or five the pigs have figured out the white boys are all out there trying to get em. They have either hightailed it or found a place to hide. I've done this before so I kind of know a thing or two about how to get the drop on em.
The ones that didn't want to leave retreat onto the islands in the lakes. The lakes are at least ten feet deep but about 90% of them have a vegetation mat that makes the water come up to your belly button or so. If you move very slowly and very consistently you could stay on top of that mat and move around okay. We would slip out in the lake, dope the wind and come in to the islands with it in our face.
I'm working toward two islands wondering if i can get through number one without my smells wafting over to number two. I'm enjoying the gorgeous little yellow flowers in the water when I hear "cheep cheep cheep". I'm looking for birds thinking ya'll are dumb - this place is full of alligators and they'll eat you. I sneak closer cause it's sort of on the way and don't see any birds but keep hearing it. When I get to the flowers - mind you I'm moving so slowly that I'm not making the water move, the pigs are not dumb and waves will be noticed in this place - there are no birds but there are a tone of little alligators floating around in the flowers. This a really pretty sight. I'm stoopid, already mentioned that, so I just have to see if I can catch one cause they all can see me and aren't really letting me get close enough to grab.

Deer hunting one day back in VA. I shot a doe that fell down in a deep hollar. Me and a buddy were dragging it out up a steep bank. I grabbed a branch to help pull myself up. The branch broke. Came back and hit me mouth. Hit me so hard knocked me out and turned me a backflip down the ridge. Gun went flying down the mtn, pack went flying along with me. After I came too I was pouring blood from my mouth. Five stitches later It was one heck of a day in the woods.
I would rather be tried by 12, than carried by 6.

Patience....................and I have one. It goes from cheep cheep to squawck squawk and I struff it in my BDU pocket and button it down. It calmed right down and shut up. Cool. I sort out my gear and turn to resume my creeping and the water just to me left explodes. She was facing the other way and swapped ends in a tenth of a second and came at me with her mouth alternately wide open and closed. No noise while open - growling while closed. I was non-stop yelling at her to just let me go, I didn't want to hurt her and I would put the damn baby back. I came to full draw as soon as I realized wtf. She was having none of my nonsense, never checked up and I put an arrow down her throat at about 5 feet away. She turned away and dove through the mat. The water was sloching all around and I was fereaked all the hell out and immediately turned and went to the closest bank 150 yards away. Crawled out. Unbottuned my jacket pocket and found no baby. Kind of bummed about that - she kept on so I ddin't have to stick to my promise. That was the last time I have been in a swamp l;ake.

I thought it was weird when you grabbed me by the arm and looked me in the eye and said dude its not worth it. That's actually a real funny story but the whole thing is way too long to type out.

There's a well known member on here who tried to drive a Polaris ranger like it was a submarine one cold January day. He cut a wake through 300 yards of a flooded road and that ranger got buoyant real fast. As water was pouring through the gas pedal hole I knew it was getting bad. I hurriedly got the rifles and gave them to our buddy in the back as we climbed onto the seats. The water was up to the seat cushion and the ranger bogged down about 100 yards from the end of the water. There was nothing to do but get in the water and push it out. He can elaborate if he wants to I had you screaming about getting hypothermia in the waist deep water and my other passenger screaming (while all 6'3" of him was crouched like a tree frog on the back seat) "RANGERS ARE MADE FOR THIS!!!" Like we were at some type of mud bog. I wasn't sure whether to turn around or do a Rebel yell and push that accelerator harder. One of my most memorable hunts saw Southwood do a belly flop out of his climber from about 3' high (think completely parallel to the ground when he landed) and take off through the woods like he was Usain Bolt. I'm still not sure why he sprinted through the woods when he gained his footing. Real tears from laughing at him for probably 20 minutes after that incident.
Ya'll are just overthinking it now
