Duck Hunters (True story)

HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT THE TWO DUCK HUNTERS FROM WISCONSIN?
ABSOLUTELY A TRUE STORY HEARD ON A WISCONSIN RADIO STATION
REPORTING ON THE INCIDENT.


A guy buys a new Lincoln Navigator for $42,500.00 (with monthly
payments of $560.00).

He and a friend go duck hunting in upper Wisconsin It's
mid-winter;
and of course all of the lakes are
frozen. These two guys go out on the ice with their GUNS, a DOG,
and
of course the new NAVIGATOR.

They decide they want to make a natural looking open water for
the
ducks to focus on, something for the
decoys to float in. Now making a hole in the ice large enough
to
invite a passing duck, is going to take a
little more power than the average drill auger can produce. So,
out
of the back of the new Navigator
comes a stick of dynamite with a short 40 second-fuse. Now our
two
Rocket Scientists, afraid they might
slip on the ice while trying to run away after lighting the fuse
(and becoming toast, along with the
Navigator), decide on the following course of action:

They light the 40 second fuse; then, with a mighty thrust, they
throw the stick of dynamite as far away
as possible. Remember a couple of paragraphs back when I
mentioned
the NAVIGATOR, The GUNS, and
the DOG...???

Let's talk about the dog: A highly trained Black Lab used for
RETRIEVING; especially things thrown by the owner. You guessed
it:
The dog takes off across the ice at a high rate of speed and
grabs
the stick of
dynamite, with the burning 40-second fuse, just as it hits the
ice.

The two men swallow, blink, start waving their arms and, with
veins
in their necks swelling to resemble
stalks of rhubarb, scream and holler at the dog to stop. The
dog,
now apparently cheered on by his
Master, keeps coming. One hunter panics, grabs the shotgun and
shoots the dog. The shotgun is loaded
with #8 bird shot, hardly big enough to stop a Black Lab.

The dog stops for a moment, slightly confused, then continues
on.
Another shot, and this time the dog,
still standing, becomes really confused and of course terrified,
thinks these two geniuses have gone
insane. The dog takes off to find cover, UNDER the brand new
Navigator

The men continue to scream as they run. The red hot exhaust pipe
on
the truck touches the dog's rear
end, he yelps, drops the dynamite under the truck and takes off
after his master.

! Then " "" "" "" "" BOOOOOOOOOOOOM "" "" "" "" ! ! !

The truck is blown to bits and sinks to the bottom of the lake,
leaving the two idiots stan! ding th ere
with "I can't believe this just happened" looks on their faces.

The insurance company says that sinking a vehicle in a lake by
Illegal use of explosives is NOT COVERED
by the policy. And he still had yet to make the first of those
$560.00 a month payments.

The dog is okay. . .doing fine.

And you thought Rednecks only live in
the South.........
 
Looks like the dog was the only one that actually did what he is supposed to do! Apparently dogs are mans best friend because they dont judge us :( . I think the dog needs to find the moron that shot him in the face and chew on his bone for a while :sign3: . I hope this is a joke.
 
Its a joke. See the thread topic?

I find it about right, I know some folks that do outings about like the one described above too. Makes me wonder how they remember to breathe!

I won't go out with them either, no way Jose !

That story has been circulating for several years... the last time I heard it it was a decked out Jeep Cherokee :D

Well in this article it says that the duck migrate south for the winter and are not around when the ice is thick enough to drive a truck on. Granted most do but there are still alot of ducks here in January. Our duck hunting don't end till mid January. I go ice fishing with my shotgun in tote. I bagged a few geese and ducks doing this. The first time I done this some people out there thought I was crazy until a flock of geese flew over and I downed two of them. I also hunt frozen ponds. To simulate open water I throw out some blue or black tydie on the ice. Its fun to watch the ducks bounce when they hit the ice thinking its open water.
