RatherBhunting,
Thats where I learned it :)  Lived in Texas for 10 years.
I took the way one friend did it on the grill and the way another did it in his restaraunt.  I took the parts I liked from each and came up with this one.   Just did brisket at first, then tried it on a neck roast I had no way I liked to fix.  It came out great! :)   ONLY way I make any deer roast anymore:)  Try it & I am sure you will love it.  Even people who say they don't like vension seem to pig out when I do it this way.  I just don't tell them what it is :)

Oh bull ticky !!this is so dead I guess I will have to tell a secrete recipe !!
 
You all have those old neck roasts ect that get shove to the back of the freezer till you give them away ??
 
Well try this on one !!
 
S & P it and add a generous amount of garlick powder .  Add more garlic powder because that was not enough !!!
 
rub brown sugar into the meat,  at least a cup full or more as you will not get too much,
 
Make a thing with the heavy duty aluminanun foil to completely hold this and a bottle of liquid tight that will not leak it out..  now add a full small bottle of Kikkoman soy sauce  to it.   DO NOT USE LA CHOY!!!  
 
Its good to sprinkle crushed red pepper on the meat now to.
 
Wrap this all up with several layer of foil !!  I use about 10 or 12 depending on if a layer got a puncture.  cook this at 350 in an electric roasteror or whatever for 8 to 10 hours !!
 
Yes!  It takes a long **** time !!  but is well worth it & you will want to do do this again once you try it.

I have a corn feeder in my front yard and it's been there a couple/three years now.
Deer are hear morning, noon, & night.  
 
We love sitting on the porch watching them and the crazy things they do.
A friend stopped in one day and could not believe what he saw come up !!!
 
we had 5 bucks at the feeder while we sat there drinking our umm coffie :) and were talking just 20 yards away.   He kept shakeng his head saying " I don't believe this, it just aint right ! "
 
We will shut the feeder OFF a couple weeks befor hunting season so they quit comeing here.   They are so tame now that cars go by and they just look up at them and continue eating.  We have a couple of cars that drive by often,  very slowly as they have seen the bucks in the yard befor.  Maybe I should shut it off befor bow season too.
 
3 years ago we has some fool come sit on a stool in the front yard !!!!!  Had to have the DNR come out and explain that one to him,   He told me  he was hunting the road, not my property!!   **** fool told that to the DNR too and got road hunting added to his charges as well as trespassing :)

yeppers !!!     Thats what we will get when the Democrats get power !!!
 
We will cut & run and just like in Viet Nam,  when we ran from there,  we will then ignor all who where killed  everywhere around there, and be thankful we got our troups home,  while the rest of the world laughs at the weak gutless Americans who run when the going gets tough !!!   Then we will send them money to rebuild.  They won't attack us while we are sending them money will they ???

THE CAMPFIRE / American Hunter Feeders
August 02, 2007, 01:03:41 PM
I bought an American Hunter feeder a year ago and it has preformed well.  
 
But then, I thought a 3/4 inch nylon rope would hold it up there well too.  
 
Squirrels could not wait for a FULL feeder to dispensence a little at a time, so they chewed the rope & got a big feed all at once.   Dropping over 10 feet from a tree branch with a bucket FULL was a little too much for my feeder and it flat BROKE !!!!
 
I contacted them ( American Hunter) to see if I could buy parts to fix it.
They said NO !!
 
They insisted on giveing me a Brand New feeder at no charge !!!!   and they did !!!
 
WOW,   I told them it was a rope chew that caused the damage,  it was a year old unit,  and no way I could fault them for my poor judgement on the way it was hung to a tree.
 
Anyway,   I got a free new unit from them !!!
 
Gotta say Kudos to American hunter for going over and above their responsability to make their products warrenty even more than just what it says.
 
They really showed me they care !!!!!

I do it the easy way, with trail cameras ! set them up around the woods to see where the deer are are, what time & all that.
 
I don't buy cams any more, much better & cheaper to build one yourself !!
http://www.hagshouse.ipbhost.com/forums/
Check out that site for tons & tons of info about game cams. You can make your own for half the price of buying one.
 
I don't go the infra red, all the extra slave flash stuff, ect. You can still get really nice pics with just a simple set-up and much cheaper than the cams you buy in a store.
 
Also if you have problems with one, these guys can tell you how to fix it !! can't do that with a store cam.

or how they came up with the 8 sec. after people got tossed on their butts for trying again ??
 
Wonder how long you could ride on a deers back ??  I bet they do more than buck! lol :)

THE CAMPFIRE / How to rope a deer...

How to rope a deer...

by an anonymous Gentleman Rancher

I had this idea that I was going to rope a deer, put it in a stall,
feed it up on corn for a several weeks, then kill it and eat it. The
first step in this adventure was getting a deer. I figured that since
they congregated at my cattle feeder and do not seem to have much fear
of me when we are there (a bold one will sometimes come right up and
sniff at the bags of feed while I am in the back of the truck not 4 feet
away) that it should not be difficult to rope one, get up to it and toss
a bag over its head (to calm it down) then hog tie it and transport it
home.

I filled the cattle feeder then hid down at the end with my rope. The
cattle, who had seen the roping thing before, stayed well back. They
were not having any of it. After about 20 minutes my deer showed up, 3
of them.

I picked out a likely looking one, stepped out from the end of the
feeder, and threw my rope. The deer just stood there and stared at me. I
wrapped the rope around my waist and twisted the end so I would have a
good hold.

The deer still just stood and stared at me, but you could tell it was
mildly concerned about the whole rope situation. I took a step towards
it. It took a step away. I put a little tension on the rope and received
an education.

The first thing that I learned is that while a deer may just stand
there looking at you funny while you rope it, they are spurred to action
when you start pulling on the rope. That deer EXPLODED!

The second thing I learned is that pound for pound, a deer is a LOT
stronger than a cow or a colt. A cow or a colt in that weight range I
could fight down with a rope with some dignity. A deer, no chance.

That thing ran and bucked and twisted and pulled. There was no
controlling it and certainly no getting close to it. As it jerked me off
my feet and started dragging me across the ground, it occurred to me
that having a deer on a rope was not nearly as good an idea as I
originally imagined. The only up side is that they do not have as much
stamina as some animals.

A brief 10 minutes later, it was tired and not nearly as quick to jerk
me off my feet and drag me. It took me a few minutes to realize this,
since I was mostly blinded by the blood flowing out of the big gash in
my head, but I then managed to get up.

Right at that point I had lost my taste for corn fed venison. I just
wanted to get that devil creature off the end of that rope. I figured if
I just let it go with the rope hanging around its neck, it would likely
die slow and painfully somewhere. At the time, there was no love at all
between me and that evil deer. At that moment, I hated the thing and I
would venture a guess that the feeling was mutual . Despite the gash in
my head and the several large knots where I had cleverly arrested the
deer's momentum by bracing my head against various large rocks as it
dragged me across the ground, I could still think clearly enough to
recognize that there was a small chance that I shared some tiny amount
of responsibility for the situation we were in, so I didn't want the
deer to have to suffer a slow death.

I managed to get it lined up to back in between my truck and the
feeder...a little trap I had set beforehand. Kind of like a squeeze
chute. I got it to back in there and started moving up so I could get my
rope back.

Did you know that deer bite? THEY DO! I never in a million years would
have thought that a deer would bite somebody so I was very surprised
when I reached up there to grab that rope and the deer grabbed hold of
my wrist.

Now, when a deer bites you, it is not like being bit by a horse where
they just bite you and then let go. A deer bites you and shakes its
head...almost like a pit bull. They bite HARD and it hurts. The proper
thing to do when a deer bites you is probably to freeze and draw back
slowly. I tried screaming and shaking instead. My method was
ineffective. It seems like the deer was biting and shaking for several
minutes, but it was likely only several seconds.

I, being smarter than a deer (though you may be questioning that claim
by now) tricked it. While I kept it busy tearing the bejesus out of my
right arm, I reached up with my left hand and pulled that rope loose.

That was when I got my final lesson in deer behavior for the day.

Deer will strike at you with their front feet. They rear right up on
their back feet and strike right about head and shoulder level, and
their hooves are surprisingly sharp. I learned a long time ago that when
an animal like a horse strikes at you with their hooves and you can't
get away easily, the best thing to do is try to make a loud noise and
make an aggressive move towards the animal. This will usually cause them
to back down a bit so you can escape. This was not a horse. This was a
deer, so such trickery did not work. In the course of a millisecond I
devised a different strategy.

I screamed like a woman and tried to turn and run. The reason I had
always been told NOT to try to turn and run from a horse that paws at
you is that there is a good chance that it will hit you in the back of
the head.

Deer may not be so different from horses after all, besides being twice
as strong and three times as evil, because the second I turned to run,
it hit me right in the back of the head and knocked me down.

Now when a deer paws at you and knocks you down it does not immediately
leave. I suspect it does not recognize that the danger has passed. What
they do instead is paw your back and jump up and down on you while you
are laying there crying like a little girl and covering your head. I
finally managed to crawl under the truck and the deer went away.

Now for the local legend. I was pretty beat up. My scalp was split
open, I had several large goose eggs, my wrist was bleeding pretty good
and felt broken (it turned out to be just badly bruised) and my back was
bleeding in a few places, though my insulated canvas jacket had
protected me from most of the worst of it. I drove to the nearest place,
which was the co-op. I got out of the truck, covered in blood and dust
and looking like ****. The guy who ran the place saw me through the
window and came running out yelling "Oh my God, What happened?"

Now, I have never seen any law in the state of Texas that would
prohibit an individual from roping a deer. I sus pect that this is an
area that they have overlooked entirely. Probably because they didn't
think anyone would be stupid enough to try. And knowing, as I do, the
lengths to which law enforcement personnel will go to exercise their
power, I was concerned that they may find a way to twist some existing
laws to paint my actions as criminal.

I swear....not wanting to admit that I had done something monumentally
stupid played no part in my response. I told him "I was attacked by a
deer." I did not mention that at the time It had my rope on it. The
evidence was all over my body. Deer prints on the back of my jacket
where it had stomped all over me and a large deer print on my face where
it had struck me. I asked him to call somebody to come get me...I didn't
think I could make it home on my own. So he did. Later that afternoon, a
game warden showed up at my house and wanted to know about the deer
attack.

Surprisingly, deer attacks a re a rare thing and Parks & Wildlife was
interested in the event. I tried to describe the attack as completely
and accurately as I could - "Well, I was just filling the grain hopper
and this deer came out of nowhere and started kicking the **** out of me
and BIT me! It was obviously rabid or insane or something!" EVERYBODY
for miles around now knows about the deer attack (the guy at the co-op
has a big mouth). For several weeks people dragged their kids into the
house when they saw deer around and the local ranchers carried rifles
when they filled their feeders.

I have told several people the story, but NEVER anybody around here. I
have to see these people every day and as a relative outsider
("gentleman rancher/city folk" some say)...I have enough trouble fitting
in without them snickering behind my back and whispering "There's the
dumb-a** that tried to rope the deer!".

THE CAMPFIRE / Re: I need some suggestions
June 12, 2007, 09:37:26 AM
I am 67.  Most anything I might want I have allready bought or it is far to expensive !!!
 
I would feel bad if my kids  went and spent a bunch of money on me.  They need it worse than I do !!!
 
What I want is for them to show/tell me about things I did right when they were growing up and that gave them some real good memories of the time together.  Just to know I was not a total *****-up and showed them some thing they will treasure all their lifes is by far the greatest present I could ever get.
