The hunter lives in the same county I do. My Dad's hunting buddy knows the guy and with his last name, I wouldn't be surprised if we were related on my Mom's side.
This has been all over the news here after being posted on North Carolina Sportsman last week. The hysterical comments that the tree-huggers have been posting on one Raleigh TV station's website must be seen to be believed.
As a side note, the town of Conetoe, NC is actually pronounced "ka-NEE-ta". Don't blame me, I think it was originally an Indian word.
Too easy... ;)
Probably Lumbee Indian dialect.
About the photo; the trick is to kneel about 6 feet behind the animal you've just bagged. That way it appears MUCH larger than it really is.
Hey CD! I saw this the other day and made me think of where I grew up...Pine Town, Farm Life, Diamond City area. Bonus points if you’ve ever heard of any of those. Makes Conetoe look like a booming metropolis. If you’ve ever been hunting in the former swamp areas of Martin County...the (former?) Weyerhaeuser land tracks blocked off by huge canals that were dug to drain the water off...my dad did that.
