[QUOTE="std7mag, post: 3050823, member: 125590"] Unsuccessful, but memorable. So there i was. About 5 years ago. Hunting a gasline in Elk State Forest about 6 miles from Bennezette, PA. Laying prone tucked into a pine tree looking through an opening in the limbs. Creek bed about 200 yards downhill to my front, which then led to a fairly steep hill that topped off at 600 yards from me. The hill not so steep behind me. So there i am, watching when 2 does and a 4 point buck come out on the gasline by the creek. PA has a point limit on bucks. Needs to be 3up including the brow tine on one side in the area i was hunting, so the buck was off limits. I did have a doe permit for that area though, so i thought i'd fill the freezer with one of those. Buck kept chasing the does. As soon as i'd settle the scope on one, he'd start chasing her. This went on for several minutes. Then, i hear noise behind me. I slowly turn my head and couldn't believe what I was seeing! A tall, skinny dude dressed up like an orange Keebler Elf!! Orange material around his shoes. Orange and white checkered pants. An orange and white button up shirt. An orange "dress up" vest. And an orange Fedora with a white feather. :oops: :oops: :oops: Of course, by the time I turn around, the deer are gone!! Still can't get the image of that guy out of my head!!! [/QUOTE]
