I'm in my huntin blind about 18' in the tree and they keep walkin right under me where I can't shoot with my bow. But I bet I can get one if I just jumped out of the tree and wrastled one down.
Anybody evar try this?

I say go for it! I doubt the game warden will cite you for anything if you manage to get one, and if nothing else, it would be a true "back to nature" moment you would undoubtedly remember all your life. I've had a few of "and it seemed like such a good idea at the time" moments as well as quite a few "What was I thinking!!" I think everyone should have a few of these.
Question? Do you plan on Ramboing it with a knife when you do your leap from the tree? I suggest holding the knife in your teeth and then jumping. Try yelling Yee Haw as you are falling, ala Slim Pickens. One request, please, please, please get this on tape if you attempt it, I don't know about other people but I would definately pay some bucks to watch it. You could use the income to offset your medical bills. Heck if nothing else you would be guaranteed a top ten on YouTube!!

Those deer fight for a living and believe me when I say that each one is carrying a really big can of Whup *** just for you. Unless you kill the deer by falling on it, it is going to get up and tear you a brand new one. You can forget all of that Bambi crap, deer have some sharp hooves and some seriously dangerous antlers. I think if I were you, I'd pass on this idea and just say that you did it. Better to be thought a fool by those hearing your wild story than to have them show up at your hospital bed or funeral and have absolute proof of what an idiot you were.
The closest that I have ever heard of anyone ever doing this is two occasions. Both happened in Texas and were reported in the news. One conceerned a surveying crew who happened to be doing some surveying on some land that a buck deer thought was his. He ran at them knocking one of them down and goring him to death before his surveyor buddy could get the deer off him. Deer one man zip!! The second happened when a hunter shot a deer and thought he was dead. He went over to get his deer and the deer jumped up and attacked the hunter. The hunter was very seriously injured with an antler puncture to his torso and some serious cuts to his legs and feet from the deer hooves. Fortunately the man had a walkie talkie and was able to call his hunting buddies for help.
So, if you are bound and determined to jump on a deer from your stand, be sure your insurance is paid up.

LOL!! Funny..... it is not illegal and if you think you can get a deer that way go for it..... you might want to try some wrastling moves, like dropping an elbow or leg from that height, then put the deer in the sleeper hold.... that would be cool!!! good luck!!

A deer's hoofs are like razors if you get stomped or kicked by one and they are very strong, plus an 18 foot fall from a tree is likely to leave you with a broken leg ,so you'd be at the mercy of a really pissed off animal. Cut a "gunport" in the floor of your blind, or get out of the blind, onto the ground, to give the poor animals a sporting chance.

What you are suggesting is totally not necessary at all .* I have harvested many Whitetail Deer directly underneath my tree stand with a 47 lb Hoyt Recurve Bow with no sights on it.* I don't want to hear your excuses & alibi's for not being able to harvest one.* Its true you only have 4" in which to place your arrow shooting straight down beneath your platform, so start practicing & stop your crying about not being able to take a kill shot.* You might be selling, but I am not buying what you are trying to sell me about being not able to get a lethal shot.*

When your buddies get a deer - 'cause it sounds like you won't be - take a good look at the rack. Imagine that deer spiking you with it.
Take another good look at the hooves. Look how sharp they are. Imagine that deer kicking and slashing you with them. They can, and they will.
Take another look at that 18 foot fall. Imagine doing that, and the deer just steps away from under you, and you plummet like a rock to the ground.
But you'll look good as a Darwin award winner, I bet.

I don't know about ILLEGAL but it might get you 72 hours in a state run mental facility for a psych evaluation.Not to mention you will be able to sing "Soprano" for the rest of your life, and not worry about having any children when your nu** get crushed.18 feet is a little "high" don't you think?
Not to mention if you survive the hypothetical "jump" what are you going to do with the Deer once you land on top of it.It's not going to stand there and let you ride it off into the Sunset!............lol

I missed a 8 point buck once with my .270. I thought I hit him cause he jumped so I chased him with my razor blade pocket knife and got him cornered in a big ditch and he charged me so I bulldoged him and cut his throat, I've have plenty of practice dawging steers. I only got a scratch on my chest from his horn and a few slices on my calves from his razor blade hooves, but my one razor blade killed him and he had 4 of them lol
