Texas man hauls 200 lb dead deer home where all can see it. Ugh. Warning dead buck.

[Liberal_in_LA]

Would you want your kids seeing this? 😥


Bobby Wuest, the CEO of Wuest Inc., a family owned business that owns Pic-n-Pac convenience stores, used a winch to affix a 200-pound deer to the front of his Jeep.



Just when Texans think they have seen it all, here comes a hunter driving down a highway with a 200-pound buck attached to the front on his Jeep with its feet in the air.

And this isn’t a small-town road tucked away in Texas’ Hill Country, this is Interstate 10. But that didn’t stop 70-year-old driver Bobby Wuest from transporting his kill over 160 miles in the head-turning fashion.

“I got a lot of thumbs up and perfect hand gestures, and people take pictures of it one after another. I got a lot of positive feedback from people,” Wuest told the Seguin Gazette, the newspaper that initially posted the photo of the buck hanging on the front of the Jeep.

Since the Seguin newspaper posted the photo to Facebook on Wednesday, it has received over 600 shares and over 780 likes.


Comments range from “That's the kinda stuff that gives hunters a bad name” to “I'm ready to eat some back strap,” but that’s not stopping Weust from “enjoying” his harvest.

1. How gun culture-y. nt

[yeoman6987]

31. As long as they eat it

I think we are over populated with deer as proof of the million killed annually in the United States by hitting them. That's why we have a hunting season.

[Mojorabbit]

47. My late husband was a bow hunter. It kept our freezer full. nt

[Abouttime]

54. It's disgusting

Animal abuse. Killing is a blood sport.
There are much more effective aye of controlling the population other than cold blooded murder.

[S_B_Jackson]

56. Other methods, yes, but none quite so tasty...

Few meals as delicious and healthy as a morel stuffed venison tenderloin.

Man is an omnivorous predator, we kill and consume other animals for our sustenance.

The method for transporting this buck is a bit unusual, but no traffic incidents were reported so the distraction wasn't significant...

[yeoman6987]

59. Yeah tell that to the families whose members are killed by them

I wish hunting was at least enough to lower their over population so we are all safe from them.

[safeinOhio]

62. My sister inlaw use to talk like that

until she got Lime Disease, twice.

[underpants]

2. I thought Texans just put the antlers on the hood

[Journeyman]

3. You'd think diligent law enforcement would ticket him for blocking his view of the road. . .

and for causing a potential hazard by distracting other drivers.

Mind now, I said "diligent," just another word for competent.

[ScreamingMeemie]

13. Law enforcement? Down here on I-10?

[Jim Beard]

18. Law inforcement in Texas???

You have to be kidding! I live in this fastly deteriorating state.

[SheilaT]

27. My thought exactly.

[Angel Martin]

4. Kids seeing a dead deer? thats nothing

(warning: graphic hog hunt footage)

[enid602]

53. tank top

The slits cut into the sides of his tank top says it all. What a slob. Feel sorry for the little girl.

[Brickbat]

5. "Would you want your kids seeing this?"

They wouldn't hide their eyes.

[rocktivity]

6. Reminds me of my first trip home from college for Thanksgiving

on the New York State Thruway. Hunting season began that day, and there were a lot of cars with deer on their roofs! But blocking the windshield? He should have been ticketed!


rocktivity

[postulater]

7. He should have hung it head up. The blood drains out of the abdominal cavity better.

The quicker you get the meat cooled off the better.

[SusanCalvin]

26. Bwaaaaaah!

So he's an idiot in yet another way. Priceless, thank you.

I have respect for hunters who eat what they kill, especially when it's an economic necessity.

Obviously this guy does not fall into that category.

[tazkcmo]

58. Probably already drained it.

The sooner the better. But then again, he could be an idiot.

[dembotoz]

72. wonder if front of deer was heavier and easier to tie up that way

[Rex]

8. The culture of death always gets confused with the hunting culture.

Now more than ever since the culture of death folks have infested the hunting culture and turned it into a political statement.

[SusanCalvin]

34. Really.

I had a mild argument with hubby recently about NRA. Told him it was not what he remembered from his childhood.

[Rex]

37. Grew up in the 70s and 80s, not what I remember at all.

Most people in this rural area just eat what they kill, they don't have this obsession with death like that driver does. It is just insulting to mother nature imo.

[SusanCalvin]

39. Exactly.

I lived for a few years where people ate what they killed due to economic necessity. People like this jerk offend me.

[Rex]

42. He didn't have to drive 160 miles to find a deer.

Some people get it, some think it is just about not wanting to eat meat...nope, not it at all. An insult to people that actually eat wildlife for diner. They walk out into their backyard.

[uppityperson]

9. I'd be more worried about it blocking his view of the road.

It's not respectful to the deer to treat it that way after killing it. That part bothers me also.

[Jim Beard]

20. Not to mention the balance of the vehicle

Engineers allow for heavier loads in the rear of a vehicle, not sticking out in front.

[SusanCalvin]

28. "It's not respectful to the deer to treat it that way after killing it."

Exactly. What a jerk.

[uppityperson]

44. I've butchered animals and treat them respectfully because you took their lives.

[SusanCalvin]

46. Exactly. EXACTLY. nt

[Rex]

36. Yeah this seems to be what is ignored in the matter.

He drove 160 miles like that, then again I doubt he is a real hunter at all. More like the OR types imo. The fakest people in America are on full display right now.

[SusanCalvin]

40. Scary, isn't it? nt

[Rex]

43. Worst ever, never thought something would crawl up worse then Dick Cheney.

Yet something did.

[SusanCalvin]

45. We are teetering on the edge.

Sometimes I'm glad I'm old.

[SwankyXomb]

61. I am not driving anywhere

with that strapped to the front of my car.

[fishwax]

49. +1 n/t

[Codeine]

10. "That's where meat comes from, kids."

My kids aren't going to be damaged by seeing the exact same thing that basically every child on the planet has seen for the entirety of human history minus maybe the last hundred years or so.

It would be a teachable moment, IMHO. "This is why daddy is a vegan."

[hunter]

19. Yep. Except I'm not a vegan.

The more civilized humans in my pack are, but I'm a dog.



Yep, on the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Internet,_nobody_knows_you%27re_a_dog

[handmade34]

11. unfortunate that

he felt the need to "show it off" in such a fashion

but dead deer on vehicles and hanging from a tree is an everyday occurrence during hunting season in many rural areas (especially mine)...

my kids have seen it all and they are fine; they grew up with me raising/killing/butchering all our meat... people should know where their food comes from

I am now a vegetarian but I understand the culture

[hunter]

12. More honest than the meat section at the supermarket.

Not nearly so ugly as factory farm chicken, pork or giant dairy operations.

That buck got to live a full life walking and running on grass or fallen leaves in forested areas.

The big factory farm meat and dairy animals spend their entire lives standing in shit.

[SusanCalvin]

29. I completely agree,

But I still wouldn't want that guy for a friend.

There's hunting and there's being - well, I find myself at a loss for words. Being a person with, to all appearances, a too-desperate need for attention?

[hunter]

50. Yep. A totally in-your-face-dick-move...

... but still not comparable to any anonymous shrink-wrapped meat in the supermarket or a drive-thru McRib.

[SusanCalvin]

51. I know, I know.

Human beings, not excluding myself, often disgust me.

[Liberal_in_LA]

67. I have to walk thru the meat section to see meat.

[Snobblevitch]

14. As a deer hunter,

I think this guy is an idiot looking for attention. We butcher all of our deer while still at deer camp. The boneless meat goes home in gallon zip-type bags.

[SusanCalvin]

30. Exactly. nt

[spanone]

15. sick.

[Codeine]

21. Why?

I'm confused by this opinion. What benefit do we gain by pretending that meat isn't dead animals?

[spanone]

22. pretending nothing. it's a disgusting display.

[SusanCalvin]

35. Of course it is.

This guy (as evidenced by his display) is still an idiot/jerk.

Oops, replied to wrong post. Of course it is a disgusting display. But not because it's a dead deer.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

16. Guess what I brought home, deer?

[world wide wally]

17. I'd like to see what Trump would do if this supporter of his parked in his driveway

[Nye Bevan]

23. Eat venison maybe?

[UTUSN]

24. Kick for exposure of the desecration. nt

[Texasgal]

25. If you are worried about your kids

seeing this perhaps they should visit a factory farm where their sweet grocery store packaged meat comes from.

[SusanCalvin]

32. Yep.

I regret to say I will probably never become either a vegetarian or a hunter, both better choices than factory farms. I compromise with organic, free range, etc., give thanks I can afford it, and hope I can trust the labeling.

[Initech]

33. That deer deserved better.

[Rex]

38. +1

[SusanCalvin]

41. Yep. nt

[SusanCalvin]

48. I am bookmarking this thread

So that I can remember the good people on it. Thank you.

[mwrguy]

52. What a psycho

[sweetapogee]

55. when I see this kind of stuff

all I can think to say is "would someone please pass the biscuits and gravy?"

I guess the reaction is based on where your are from.

[Bayard]

57. Remember in "Last of the Mohicans"....

The film opens with Hawkeye and Uncas chasing a deer thru the forest on foot. After they shoot it, they show respect and apologize to it for needing to take its life to feed themselves. My, how times have changed.

I lived in eastern Calif. in the lower Sierra Nevadas for 12 years. While driving down the road one day, we got behind a truck that had a black bear cub with its head hanging off the tailgate, draining out the blood. For miles. I tried calling the sheriff's dept, and was told they weren't breaking any laws. What do you do with a dead bear? You think they were going to skin it to make a coat?

[eShirl]

63. People do eat bear meat. n/t

[S_B_Jackson]

71. It's quite likely they planned to eat it...

bear has a taste somewhat like pork but more gamey.

[milestogo]

60. Texas.

[SusanCalvin]

69. Sigh....

We're not all jerks. Not even most of us.

[Kalidurga]

64. Would you want your kids seeing this?

I saw stuff like that growing up in a rural area. It was the least of my problems. My youngest daughter saw that in Tennessee and likewise the least of her problems. I don't approve of the display, but some people eat meat and hunting is not worse than going to the grocery store.

[Liberal_in_LA]

66. It looks horrible.

[Kalidurga]

68. Well yes it does look horrible

many people have said they think the way he displayed the deer is evidence of a depraved mind or at least they alluded to that. I tend to agree. But, people do hunt and the deer they kill for venison are just as dead as that one. I don't particularly like his attitude the way he did that, but the sight of a dead deer isn't going to scar a child. At least I don't know anyone raised in the country that was scarred by such a thing.

[pansypoo53219]

65. driving to & from a 30 mile drive m thanksgiving on thanks give ALWAYS came w/dead deer.

oce saw one hanging from the front pine tree. YUMMY.

[ileus]

70. I always haul my deer inside my jeep.

Given it's not a girl jeep and has a linex tub.


this guys is an idiot, a hitch carrier is how most folks with limited interior space carry deer.

[RandiFan1290]

73. Probably a canned hunt chicken shit. nt
