I had to strangle him with my drag rope Dang, I hate that for you but glad you got him! I bought a little 22 mag revolver that stays in my pack for just such an occasion.

I had to strangle him with my drag rope That is brutal, but it had to be done. My dad had to dispatch one with a knife a few years back. That deer let out a battle cry roar like you've never heard.
I don't always hunt the line, but when I do, I make sure I'm close to my neighbor's 8 acre bean field.

I had to strangle him with my drag rope I'm really glad you got the deer but it begs the question, why in the world did you not have your gun with you when you went to look for him? Dr. B

Yep. I learned that the hard way. It's no fun killing them by strangulation. My father in law shot one back 15 years ago or so and loaded it in the truck. When he was driving out he had to stop to unlock the gate and when he did he heard something and looked back towards the truck and the buck was standing up in bed of the truck. My FIL jumped into the back and grabbed the deer by the antlers and somehow was able to jam them under the toolbox. Deer was sluggish but still very much alive. His gun was on seat of the truck and his knife was in his jacket pocket on the front seat. He managed to get the tool box open and found a ratchet strap and got it around the deers head. Twisted it until he thought it was dead and then let off, only to have the deer "wake up" again. He got the strap back around his neck and used an open end wrench to twist it until he heard the neck pop. I drove up to him while he was still sitting there trying to catch his breath. Dont know how he didnt have a heart attack.
I love my country, but don't trust my government.

a friend of mine was a preacher at a church close to Eufaula & he tells a funny story at deer camp each year ...
on a Wednesday night, he gets an SOS call -- "hey, a deer's just been hit outside my house -- do you want the meat?" so of course, my friend obliges & next thing you know, this buck shows up in the back of a truck at his church ... with the entire congregation looking on, my friend inspects his Gift from God -- however, the gift rose from the dead & attempts to escape the truck bed...
as they might Biblically say, ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE and my friend pulls out his knife, jumps up into the back of the truck & wrestles the injured deer back down into the bed of the truck while stabbing it & slashing at his throat ... the more he stabs it, the more the buck bellows & bucks & kicks & tries to impale him with his horns!
the Old Testament must've been really awesome days when they offered blood sacrifices!! my friend offered HIS BLOOD as well as the blood of the animal that night ...

I have a buddy who killed a wounded deer (archery) with the exact same method 10 years ago.
I also know a guy who finished off an elk with a small, keychain sized pocket knife. I heard the story but glad I wasn't there. Sounded like a scary experience.
