You might as well get used to the sight of camouflage, as that's the color of Fall around here.

Deer fever is slowly creeping into the bodies of every red-blooded hunter throughout the Bayou State.

In Louisiana's Area 2, archery season just began yesterday on October 1. This year, the special season for Youth and Veterans is coming up from October 12 through October 18.

Considering the nearly 275,000 licensed deer hunters we have in Louisiana, and the length of our season, it's fair to say that you'll likely encounter someone in pursuit of that "Turdy Point Buck" on a regular basis.

However, it's highly unlikely that any of these hunters will make an attempt at a "live" harvest of a deer, like the gentleman in this hilarious story.

Though the story has circulated on Facebook a couple of years now, I'm still convinced it might be the funniest story every penned.
