We were hunting in Benevola in 83 and my Cajun buddies would always bring guests with them when they came. One member brought a young boy about 14 who had never killed a deer and was super excited to have the chance to kill one. He was very gung-ho and we called the youngster Frank Buck because he was so excited to hunt. We were going to do a man drive across a huge section of cutover and had all the members and guests standing on the boundary line waiting on the fleeing deer. After a while, we start to hear shooting coming from several different spots on the boundary line and we knew the deer were moving. When we get to the boundary line there is Frank Buck with a bandana wrapped around his chin and blood dripping from it and blood all over his coveralls. There is a dead doe laying there where he was standing and he is about to go berserk he is so excited. Come to find out, the doe was running straight to him and he started shooting and shot all three shells he had in the gun. The doe was running right at him and he had climbed a small tree to see out into the cutover. He didn't have a climber, he just shimmied up the tree and was sitting on a limb. When the deer was almost under him he jumped out with his big knife in his mouth like a Pirate boarding a ship and landed on the deer. He began fighting with the deer, stabbing it all he could trying to kill it. The deer wound up kicking him under the chin and laid his chin wide open. In the end, Frank Buck won the battle but had to go get 13 stitches to close the gash under his chin. I sure miss those boys from Louisiana. Those Cajuns are hardcore man. A buddy of mine had brought two duck hunting buddies of his who were firemen from Shreveport hunting one weekend. I got to camp late that night due to work. and when I turned down the road to our camp I saw eyes. There was a little house on the corner of that road with about a 2 acre corn field in front of it and there was a pretty good buck standing in it and a bunch of does. I drove on past and got to camp and started telling the guys about it. My buddy, who was in full host mode, always wants to impress people asked me to walk back up there to show them the deer since the old man had a couple of street lights around his little corn field and it was lit up. We were all real good buddies with the guy that owned the house and knew he wouldn't give a rip for taking a peek at his field so I thought what the heck. I mean it's not like we were going to shoot them or anything so what could a quick glance hurt? Before I know it those two Cajuns are busting rifles out of cases and fumbling for shells. I'm like..... "Hell no fellas, if we do this it's only to look, not kill. The rifles stay here". They case the guns back up and one of them grabs a machete out of his pack and the other one fishes a claw hammer out of his truck. They look at me with a big toothy grin and said "Just in case". Thankfully the deer were gone when we slipped back up there lol.
