The Deer Hunter and His Wife


It was Saturday morning as Jake, an avid hunter, woke up raring to go bag the first deer of the season.

He walked down to the kitchen to get a cup of coffee, and to his surprise he found his wife, Alice, sitting there, fully dressed in camouflage.

Jake asked her, "What are you up to?"

Alice smiles, "I'm going hunting with you!"

Jake, though he had many reservations about this, reluctantly decided to take her along. Later, they arrived at a game preserve just outside of town.

Jake set his wife safely up in the tree stand and told her: "If you see a deer, take careful aim on it and I'll come running back as soon as I hear the shot."

Jake walked away with a smile on his face, knowing that Alice couldn't hit the broad side of a barn, much less a deer. However, less than 10 minutes passed when he was startled as he heard an series of gunshots.

Quickly, Jake started running back. As Jake got closer to her stand, he hears Alice screaming, "Get away from my deer!"

Confused, Jake races faster towards his screaming wife. And again he hears her yell: "Get away from my deer!" followed by another volley of gunfire!

Now within sight of where he had left his wife, Jake was surprised to see a cowboy, with his hands high in the air.

The cowboy, obviously distraught, said, "Okay, lady, okay!!!! You can have your deer!!! Just let me get my saddle off it first!"
