DEER  Hunting  Terms  A - Z

 

I realize there are a lot of new hunters out there so lets get the terminology down. THE following should help you out  --  you don’t want to sound like a city slicker in hunting camp.

 

  Ammo - IF you don’t know what ammo is  -  stop reading these terms  -  you're hopeless.

  BEFOYOGO - Shut up and listen the old timer is gonna tell you something important.

  CANYASHOOT - If you can’t figure out which end of the shell goes in  --  you might hear this one.

  DOGGONEMISSEDIT - This is the proper term to be used when one misses an easy shot.

  EXCUSESME - I never give excuses ???  Me ???   It is the God’s honest truth  --  with one eye on the sky to see if God is gonna strike you dead for lying.

  FELLOUTTATREE - Did you see the huge buck that came right by your stand ?  Nope, I FELL-OUT-TA-TREE and never saw a thing.

  GONNASEE - Gonna see if I hit that big buck.

  HITSDABUCK - On your first buck you may slur your words. I Hits-DA-Buck  -  I Hits-DA-Buck.  Cars or truck don’t count for the first buck.

  ISEEDABUCK - Proper Yooper term I-SEE-DA-BUCK.  If you don’t know what a YOOPER is stop reading these terms  --   your hopeless.  Hint : Second week of Deer Camp i.e. song.

  ROADRAGE - Chasing a buck with your truck through the woods after hunting for two weeks without seeing a deer  --  until you were driving home.

  STILLTHERE - Often heard explaining how you forgot to load your rifle and rack in a new round. The buck was still-there until I moved the gun.

  TREESTAND & #)*!#&)#*%!^%t - Often heard when the tree stand creaked right when you were about to shoot and the trophy buck disappeared.

  YU’SGUYSSEEANYTHING -You are walking up to another group of hunters  --  hopelessly lost but, never admit it.

  VEEREDOFFCOURSE - I musta veered-off-course. Explaining why you couldn’t find your deer stand in the morning  --  or for that matter all day.

  WASHEDCLOTHES - Explaining you needed to wash your clothes  --  that is why you are all wet. Never tell the truth that you fell in the river.
