    I was at Lowe's yesterday picking up some stuff and I ran across this book FIELD AND STREAM The Total Deer Hunt Manual. $24.95 so I picked it up. If some of you are looking for a nicely put together book on a subject we can all appreciate, I recommend checking it out. It's broken down into very quick manageable chunks, in case for example a person might want to read it while on the toilet (I don't know who would do such a thing). It covers quite a bit of stuff.

    Here's a list they put together to tell if you're a deer hunter. (I thought a few of these were funny)

    1. While watching Bambi with the kids, you rough score Bambi's dad.
    2. When your significant other says "Dear" You reply "Where?"
    3. You keep your most expensive clothes in a garbage bag filled with dirt and leaves.
    4. You schedule vacations around the moon phases.
    5. You start a fight at church over whether Noah took a typical or Non-typical buck aboard the ark.
    6. You total your truck hitting a deer and think "I hope the backstraps are okay"
    7. Instead of family pics in your wallet, you have trail cam pics of hitlist bucks.
    8. When you first saw a "drone" in the news you thought "Mobile Trail Cam"
    9. You follow the price of corn like a Wall Street commodities trader.
    10. When a non-hunting friend says "Look at that rack" you scan for deer.

    enjoy.

    I enjoyed the book and that list was hilarious. Another one I would add:

    You can tell it is deer season when the husband starts doing his own laundry.

    Picked this up too. Very good and informative. Only about 1/3 of the way through it, but I would highly recommend it.
