    243 energy

    Ouch- I started cleaning too fast twice. Once it was freezing and I couldn't feel my hands and Put a knife through my hand the whole way. The other time I had a deer leg up skinning and the knife slipped and went into my leg. That one bled bad. One little lapse and ouch!

    Your Close Calls

    Years ago I was hunting several draws in the late afternoon. It started to rain heavy and within 30 minutes snow. It became a white out and it was snowing inches an hour. It got dark and I could not see in front of me and had no bearings. I fired my gun 3 times hopeful my partner would hear...
