Oh, the life long struggle of being a hunter. The things people have asked me, or just blatantly said, would blow your mind. Here are just a few of the questions and comments I've heard the most, as well as a few that are my favorites!

1. "Isn't it cold out there?"

Nah, I just have on 5 layers of clothing and this beanie because it's 80 degrees and I would like to sweat today.

2. *While wearing camouflage* "Are you guys going hunting?"

I have been asked this question more times than not. Usually, I'm standing in line at a convenient store grabbing a drink and some snacks when someone behind me has to ask if I'm, or we're, hunting. The smart ass in me has come out in responses like, "No, not today."

3. *Also while wearing camouflage* "Wow I can't see you!"

This is a go-to for my friends, and I'm pretty sure I always roll my eyes or give them a look!

4. "Poor little Bambi!"

Non-hunters, especially friends, like to bring up the good ol' Disney movie.

5. "So you just sit there and wait for a deer?"

It's not a hard concept, I promise.

6. *After being asked if we've gotten anything yet* "You should see the deer in my backyard!"

I am often asked how the season is going or if I've gotten anything, mainly by family friends. For some reason, their go-to response when I say no is always, "You should see all of the deer in my yard!" Okay well, if you're going to bring them up then follow suit with telling me when I can come hunt them....

7. "Did you catch anything?"

I think this one has to be my favorite. I'm not sure if I get asked this because people genuinely don't know the terminology (or if I'm actually going fishing), but it seems to come up with friends and their parents, especially those from more of a city environment.

I'm sure my fellow hunters can relate to these absurd, and sometimes totally hilarious comments!
