There was a thread here once about quotes....and I'd like for this thread to be quotes JUST from Trad Gangers...either posted here on the forum...or from hunts.  Purely from Trad Gangers...and post WHO said it.  Thanks.

Which brings me to something else for you to consider when hunting with friends or on group hunts, I've done it often and I think it adds to the memories.  Try and remember quotes from others on these hunts, and incorporate them into the story.  They will help remind you of special moments just like the pics do.

I'll start.....

"I'm about 4 donuts out of camp" - Biggie Hoffman

"She really doesn't have to know how to cook" - Charlie Lamb

If God brings you to it he'll get you through it

i believe by Ron Leclair "a big knife can do small jobs but a small knife can not to big jobs"

"he said his body core temperature was dropping"- Bill Burdette aka 'baretraks'

while three of us were bow hunting on a VERY cold day Bill called my cell to let me know that our other hunting buddy was cold, VERY, VERY cold. needless to say we hunted till dark and everyone survived but I'll never forget how Bill relayed that message. just one of those things that stick with you.

Last Butch and I took a good friend(Kenny) out for his very 1st stump shooting experience.

We had been picking the normal stump shooting targets. (Clumps of grass, twigs, rotten stump and leaves.)

We are headed down the hill on the last leg of our shoot, the house is in sight when Kenny says "This ain't so tough,I get at least one leaf every time I shoot."...lol

God bless,Mudd

This one won't mean too much to anyone except the guys that were there....VTer said this my son Josh at the end of a long road trip. We were headed to Missouri for a deer hunt

" bet you wish you were suave and debonair like me".
He said it with a mouth full of food and I believe a morsel or two came out. We were tired from a long drive....can't stop laughing about it as I write this. you had to be there!...Ya Greg you are smoooth...LoL                            

Thanks Terry for this post... chance to remember. I got more!

"If you aim for nothing, that is exactly what your going to hit".  Self quote.  This is so true about alot of things in life, not just archery.

Mudd,
That was a goodun' from Kenny. He pops 'em up pretty often.

Here is a few that I saved from our last Texas Trip......Most are text between Terry, Skyler, and Curt.

"just drilled a tank of a six point"

"I stopped counting at 20 cows"

"cows suck"

"ALL I ever see are button bucks. but when i come back in a few years they won't be buttons"

"i shot him on the run right thru the heart"

"i'm now officially one step closer to the solana slam"

"yup....one dead as a hammer hog"

"Just hammered one!!!!"

"I was afraid to breath"

"looked like right in the pocket"

"i really wanted to shoot that 8 point"

"red feathers"

"this waiting to go recover sky's deer is killing me!!!!"

I remember Don Wilson saying at Solana "I am so tired I am going to wear my safety harness even if I am hunting from the ground"

I remember that morning....My room-mate said the night before "do you snore? I won't be able to sleep if you snore"  I made that statement after listening to him SNORE for 6 hours.... it was the same morning you killed that buck....Great Times wasn't it Randy?

"It's really hard to kill deer from the couch"

My quote.

Applies most to MSU/U-M football saturday and U-M/OSU football saturday. State "holidays" for many in Michigan, including many of my hunting friends. LOL

Feel free to insert bar stool, bed, cot, sleeping bag, etc.

"I'm not sure if all this 'camo " stuff is what its made out to be "
My hunting partner "Cheech"  after not seeing any game all day ...
He was in the same set of clothes he'd been wearing all week in 100 deg temps and was smoking his 25th cigarette of the day ... lol

For a funny line, on a float hunt, one buddy brought a left over pizza for food, still in the box. Chuck Cady said, with an incredulous tone...

"Pizza? In a boat?

We still laugh about that line.

The big one that got away! The more the story is told the bigger he got!

" Stop, StoP, StOP, STOP, STOP, STOP!!!" Night Terror at Ray's.  

I would like to apologize again for waking everyone up.

Truely great times my FRIEND

Yeah Randy...and that was a really funny quote....and much funnier if you were there to see the big stamp across Don's face that morning that read....EXHAUSTED!!!

"Holy Hogs Batman!!!!"


Guru in a PM when I told him it took me all of thirty minutes to get them on hogs last year.

This one I have posted before and most likely will use in the future as the situation arises.

I got it from my dad. "There's no point in being ignorant or stupid if you don't show it!"

God bless,Mudd
