Vintage deer photo

[DMD]

Great Pic! It makes me long for the old days when you strapped your deer to the hood of the vehicle, drove it around town. Everyone either was happy for you or didn't care. No one was offended. Life was simple. You could hunt on just about anyone's property and they were happy for you to kill a deer.

Worthy of framing and hanging in the man cave. I brought my first one home on the hood of my hunting buddy's Rambler on Thanksgiving Day of 1972.

We brought one home on the trunk of a 1980 Plymouth Volare in 1988.

Very neat photo, family treasure for sure. I'm thinking that's a pretty dandy buck then or now!

Thanks for sharing. I sure miss the days of throwing over or on the hood. A spike would be the talk of the town, but a deer that size would make the paper.

Very nice deer and great memory of your dad.

Here's a photo my dad took of a deer he killed when he was a young man. He had great camera equipment and developed his own work. I found it in a box of photos this past weekend. I'd seen it when I was a kid but can't remember the story.

That's an awesome picture! I lost both my folks this past year and have been going through thousands of pictures. I've found several hunting photos post-me but not many before I came along. I took this one of Dad in the early 90's. I hope I find an original of the two bucks he killed in rural WV in 1958 and 1959 with a mail order M-1 Garrand. Dad wasn't a lil guy by any means and he was a good backdrop for these. They hung on an old barn of a family that took him in after his parents died for 30+ yrs. He probably couldn't afford a camera back then)

What memories. And DANG what bucks!

This is a picture that hangs in my living room. It's my grandfather (on my mother's side) with a buck he killed in central Wisconsin in 1932. Above the picture is his 1932 hunting license.

The buck is standing upright because he's frozen solid! This is Wisconsin in November!

That is an awesome picture!

I bet I could find a crappy picture of a spike in the trunk of my sisters Chevy Vega if I looked hard enough.....

So...one time at band camp, we brought one home on a 1974 pink Mary Kay Pacer...just saying.
