I had the distinct honor of calling my best friend/best man/godfather of my children to tell him that we are kicking him off our lease this afternoon.
My phone rings at 8 am;
Him: I need to confess to something, I think I screwed up.
Me: fire at will, you have my attention....
H: my brother in-law killed a buck
M; kewl, where at??
H: My stand
M: whaaaa????? Ughhhh explain....
H: so, you know I was going to take my 13 yr old nephew pig hunting on Saturday; right... well his dad decided to come... so I put him in my stand and well..... he shot a buck.
M: (at least 5 seconds of silence) he what????
H: (to save time) insert every excuse you could possibly imagine...
M: he what????
M: did you not tell him that couldn't shoot anything but pigs??
H: I didnt think he would see anything.
M: (another 5-10 seconds of silence) you know that 5 of us havent killed our buck; right....
H: I didnt think he would see anything
3 phone calls and A LOT of apologies later....
M: sorry but you are not allowed back on the property. Once season is over we will help you get your stuff off.
It has been a long day!!! We hunt on family land. Family only except this guy. It took me 3 years of asking before my Father in-law allowed him to come "visit"... last year the family finally agreed to let him hunt. He killed his first deer ever last year and got a nice little basket 8 this year. I feel horrible but it had to be done.
