Deer Hunting question

I hit a big doe with my Flintlock in the neck and thought she was done for untill I started to load here in my Gator. Halfway up she found some life and went to kicking the ever living crap out of me. I finally got my hands on a claw hammer I had in the back and stopped that nonsense. I still have scars on both forearms where she worked me over. And I've never figured out why someone would cut a deer's throat after the heart quit pumping?

That's hilarious Eddie! ;D
About as bad as this fellow that hit a bear with his car, loaded it into his trunk, took it to a conservation officer, and when they opened the trunk, the bear 'bout ate 'em both up!
My boy found out the hard way that you don't gut a live deer :o! It kicked him clear over the mountain when he stuck her with his knife. I may have been a little derelict in my duties in mentioning that little tidbit! But in the end, he got his first deer!

Now you are pulling our legs, Pearlie! They don't do that or else they couldn't make chicken noodle soup!

Beadman I can see where your comeing from.
But I'm still a bit harder driven for now when it comes to gobblers and bucks.
But I'm slowly leaning towards your ways.

Yes no reasonable person is chasing living deer with a knife, at least twice. haha By all means get the heck out there and hunt em with your bow. I strongly 2nd the suggestion to find a mentor to lessen the learning curve. Practice hard, hunt smart, and be patient. Only take perfect shots and be willing to pass up less than ideal ones. having said that let's be realistic, if you hunt enough you will wound deer. it sucks but we all go through it usually more earlier in our hunting education. understand it will happen and learn from it. Sometimes you do everything as perfectly as possible but it happens. Best not to mention those times to your wife. ;) Best of luck man!
