If it can happen in Chicago...

[antlerradar]

I guess in the forest preserves around Chicago backing into your parking spot means you’re looking for some male on male contact. There are a lot of ways I could have phrased that but I’m just not sure what you are allowed to say these days. A friend of mine shed hunts in the forest preserves and had know idea about this rule. He had a great story of a time he backed in to his spot along side another car and got out of his car to head into the woods. The other guy got out of his car too and started following my buddy into the woods. My buddy would start walking faster and so would the guy behind him. He eventually kicked into high gear and lost him, but that was the last time he ever backed into his parking spot.

Learn something new every day. Can not wait to tell my wife the next time she backs into a parking spot.

Yep. I had the exact same thing happen to me. As a firefighter backing into spots is kinda the norm. I had a dude in a full 3 piece suit at lunchtime follow me into the woods when I was looking for deer and sheds.I didn’t even think about it. After mentioning it to the guys at work I got totally ripped and I think I was the only one who didn’t realize the whole backing into spots thing.

....it can happen in any city

First deer legally harvested by a hunter in Chicago during modern time

Jose Guzman became the first hunter to legally harvest a deer within Chicago in more than 150 years.

I applied for and struck out for this deer hunt this year. Below is a pair of ducks I killed outta the same state park located inside Chicago city limits last fall. It’s one of two places you can legally hunt within city limits.


If you look closely, you see just see the Sears Tower in the background. This is taken from inside a blind.

That’s cool! I’ve kinda got a fascination with hunting on the fringes of urban areas. Inside city limits is even better!

There is still some farmland that is inside the Indpls city limits.....I've seen BIG herds with monsters in the field by Eagle Creek Park.

Wolf Lake ?

Yup.

I’m confused too.

Kinda of like tapping your foot in an airport stall I assume. As in, "The Senator claimed he did not know the significance of backing into a trailhead parking spot. "

Hard lesson learned by ol’ “wide stance” Larry.

 

[nwihunter]

Yup.

I’ve only fished there one time but have a friend that used to get some big musky‘s out there trolling

When you follow a car backer down the trail and find out she’s Asian.

 

[44hunter45]

Only the first time. After that it's totally normal.

I wonder if the deer was in a gang?
