I reported this before,but here goes. I once shot a 6 point during muzzle load season right under our bird feeder, I shot out of the bedroom window. I note to all who try this, WAKE up your wife first! :eek: Also you should at least take out the screen. Man them screens hold back a lot of smoke.:confused:

[tree dweller]

Isnt that called poaching? I thought it was illeagal to shoot from a house. Please correct me if I am wrong.

[Captain]

Yep! Its called Cabin Poaching....Whats that number for the RAP hotline?

[Dutchman]

Did I mention it was 20 years ago! wouldn't do it today,,,, I don't think:)

[stelmon]

I thought it was legal.

[Coldwater Charters]

Who told you it isn't legal. If it's your house and you gave yourself permission to shoot within the the 450' safety perimeter and your wife won't kick your butt then it is legal. What about some of these house blinds you see now, what's the difference. Many of them have a stove, refer and a heater, and even a outhouse inside. It doesn't sound like what and ole hunter like Daniel Boone would do but hey... to each his own. Everybody wants to junp on the poacher wagon,,,, Jeeze think about it....

[stelmon]

That is what i thought CC. Thank you for clearing that up

[Dutchman]

CC you mentioned some of them"shacks" have refer in them. Did you mean REEFER? I'll pass,thanks,out grew that a long time ago.;) it does scare me to thinl i'm hunting out there with nuts like that.

[Coldwater Charters]

No I was talikng about a refrigerator ---ie-- refer, but you are right there probably will be some of that other stuff amoung other things out there too,,,,, becareful.....

Deer forces man to flee office

Associated Press - Nov. 12, 2001

BARTONVILLE, Ill. - The superintendent of a foundry had to flee his office
through a window after a deer charged at him.
Scott Lunsford, 39, was on the phone with his wife Thursday, Nov. 8, when he
heard a crash. Minutes later, he saw a buck walk by the open doorway of his
office. The deer then turned back and charged into his office. "I told my
wife, 'I've got to get out of here, there's a deer in my office,'" he said.
Lunsford used a chair to fend off the deer while he searched for a way out.
"We went back and forth for a few minutes," he said.
Lunsford managed to close his office door, trapping the deer inside, then
squeezed through a window to safety.
Foundry workers eventually coaxed the animal out.
