SLOB

Don't pass a deer on day one that you would be happy to have at the end of the season.  If you are happy and enjoy what will fill your freezer, you take it when you can get it.  My wife killed her first last year and we are nearing consuming him now.  She will take what fills our freezer from public land and that is it.  Love to have a STUD or a 1 1/2 year old.  Whatever I can get in range for her.

My response is always the same: "That would have been a nice one next year!"

That's what I think of your "slob".

My guess is that people get excited in WI when they see a big one cause  they are used to seeing  "Dinks", "Scrappers", "Sporty", "Baskets", "WI 11 pt (spiker)" etc. Most hunt for meat, or so they say,  but shoot anything that may have some resemblance to an antler. If i had a dime for every guy that told me he passed 12 antlerless deer but shot a fork,  I could put my grandkids through college. Meat hunters they claim.......

I suppose it works both ways,  it just depends what side of the fence you are on.  Legal is legal right???? At least that's a buzz phrase people like to use to defend themselves.   

 I really couldn't care less  if people call them TOADS or Dinks,  it doesn't affect my outcomes.  I think people should just do what they do,  like what they like and just be happy you don't live in Russia.

Obviously the way i've written this post one could guess what side of the fence i'm on. I encourage others to get in the woods and shoot whatever.  It's not easy to kill a big one,  most don't "just" get lucky.  the reality is in WI,  it can take YEARS to kill a buck with some age in most part of the state.  Big buck hunting isn't all that fun,  lot's of watching grass grow.  I can understand why it's not for everyone.  To worry about what other call big bucks or small bucks or the new age lingo in general,  just won't help you in the woods.  Who gives a Flying bleep what others say.  

I'm a meat hunter too,  I personally love eating venison and I am lucky to have a few nice places loaded with doe.  I like to hunt doe till about Oct 20th,  any big doe that walks close enough goes home with me.

Yeah , “ look at this toad!”

Always thought that was a ridiculous thing to say though I said it once jokingly. I could see calling a big fat bear a slob but a big walleye or bass isn’t fitting

Its actually Turd Sandwich or giant deouche from South Park 

I’ve heard Slob and Pig before. Suppose you could vote for Big Turd also? (South Park)

lkshiner..........." didnt go 20!"

haha

LOINS

I never even realized it before, but I do use "beast" to describe large deer we get on the trail cam.  I noticed it over the weekend when showing my friend a pic of this beast six pointer we got on cam.

What's a "Hit List" buck?

I heard Behemoth the other day,  that's pretty lame.  I never saw what i'd call a Behemoth in Wisconsin yet.  Behemoth to me would be a 180 inch.  I'm always hunting in the wrong woods.

I do see a ton of trail cam pics of 180 inch Behemoth's ( 150's is everyone 180's )

I heard someone today call a buck a "whale"?
