The No-Shame Thread

Here's a confession for ya.

I've shot 11 deer this year. Only two got shot in a saddle, and one of those I was wearing the saddle at ground level. I basically quit after I did my duty for team 13.

Climbing trees is (for me) 80% an expensive, bothersome, dangerous distraction from the serious bidness of finding and killing deer, and 20% a good idea due to specific circumstances that make ground hunting problematic.
Team 13 appreciates your sacrifices. I will agree that climbing a tree doesn’t offer a lot of advantages if young plan to shoot the first deer you see.
 
Where’s the love for the banjo pickers? We exist too! One would think a hunting group would lean heavily towards banjos and fiddles.

And no shame in my game that I pick a banjo (not good, but I do pick one) and listen to bluegrass music.

yep. Shameless banjo player here.
 
One time in college I bought a blue kiddie pool, and a handful of those 3ft sugar pixie stick straws. I mixed up gigantic batch of margaritas in the pool, dumped the sugar out of the straws and used them to sit on on the couch sip margaritas with a few friends... all weekend...we just kept adding 1 bag of ice at a time....

So frat
 
I know...this is the no shame thread thought right?

The funny part is we were so far from "frat" it is crazy....we were a bunch of hippie climbers who had spent the 14 days before on a paddling trip on the Raquette River in the Daks.... We were tired and weren't ready to interact with the college crowd after such a great time away.....

All weekend? Not a frat!!
Or at least I know we aren’t related! Bwahahaha!

I used to think that crossbows were kinda cheating and shouldn’t be in regular archery season.

I just bought a Hickory Creek Mini. I drank the Kool-aid and could not be more excited. I know it’s no-shame thread, but I gotta repent of my prideful attitude. I guess I need to go to Father @Nutterbuster to see how many Hail Mary’s I need to do.

I like killing deer and for some situations, this thing seems to be the most effective tool in the tool box.
 
I want a Mazda Miata.

My wife is taller than me with longer arms, she put stuff she knows I want out of my reach just to mess with me, and I rather go do something else or use something else than ask her for help or get a step stool.

2 of my girls first solid food was dog food that they found off the floor learning to crawl.

I want a LWCG .5 stand but dont want to pay for it in regards to contemptment from wife for the rest of my life. Been hoarding my lunch allowance for it, might be able to afford it by 2023. Then come out with a back story about how I found it on craiglist for cheap hoping she buy it.
