1.Don't shoot at ducks with a cigar clenched in your teeth.The resulting recoil mashes it into your mustache and the acrid smell of singed hair is unpleasant.
2.Never assume the deer that went straight down at the shot is dead.Happened to my friend this year on a nice white tail buck,as he approached, the buck got up and made a safe getaway.
3.Always reload after the shot.See #2.
4.The distance between two strands of barbwire is not wide enough when taking a shot with a bow on a buck of a life time,not for me anyways.
5.Never let your wife pack your bags for an extended hunt.I went on a three day hunt with only the pair of socks I was wearing.My hunting partners thought $20.00 a pair for socks was a fair price.
6.Toilet paper does not make good ear plugs.Hunting partner snores like a chainsaw.
7.Back bench of an extended cab pick up does not make a good bed.I looked like a question mark for half a day before I finally straightened out.
8.Never assume you have toilet paper in your pack just because you usually do.
9.Three cartridges in the rifle are not enough.Spare ones sitting on the counter at home do you no good.
10.Never get directions to a spot from some one who has only been there once.
There's more but these are the ones that come to mind right away.
