This is like the antithesis of the No Shame Thread. So if you post something that’s a shame you gotta be ok with taking a little ribbing or constructive criticism. I think getting teased is a good way to make light of our shortcomings so that we can accept direction and improve going forward. Chirping back and forth and playful banter between friends is something I really enjoy. It’s almost like a sign of a good friendship or common ground. A lot of the stupid stuff I’ve done has sucked, but some make for good stories. It’s crazy how we remember the stuff we did wrong better than the stuff we did right. It’s almost like it’s burned into our memory, to help us not make the same mistake twice.
I wouldn’t make this a list of things you think other people have or do that you view as shameful, but rather do some self reflection. Some of these range from shameful to ‘a crying shame’, all the way to just plain o ‘what a shame’.
My first two deer seasons I missed 5 deer with the bow, all were very close and easy shots. The first deer I was cold and shaking so bad the young 6 point looked at me after the first shot, then licked my arrow as I missed a second shot. You can’t make this stuff up. Flat out shameful.
I’ve injured two deer with non lethal shots. One was on accident the other was from rushing the shot, I hate each equally. Shameful!
I shot or shot at a nice 8 pt with a rifle that rolled when I shot, but got back up and walked away and I didn’t put another in him. Never found the deer. Crying shame!
I killed my first deer ever and the next day hunting I shot a yearling. I climbed like 40 ft before daylight and the deer really looked bigger to me when it walked right under my tree. Nothing wrong with shooting a yearling but at the time I would have preferred not to.
I can shoot a compound out to 60 yards and then miss a deer at 10. Its downright disgraceful, if I had any sense I’d pick up berry picking or something more manageable. Haha. Crying shame!
I started wearing tevas (sandals) and they are the lamest granola looking footwear I have ever seen behind chacos but I like them in summer time. Just a shame!
That should be enough to get this started.
