A Kind of Hunt That Even Deer Can Get Behind

Hey, Land Between The Lakes (where this round of the tournament took place) is my stomping grounds! Hunted in there many times since I was a boy.

This deer hunting tournament thing got started out as a non-"catch & release" venture, i.e., you hunt the deer, you shoot the deer, you kill the deer. That didn't go over too well. With anybody, it seems. Too much like a 'killing contest'. It morphed into this incarnation pretty quickly, though.

We literally hunt the hell outta deer, and there's more of them than we can stand to have, so I don't guess this will do any more harm.
