Before & After Netting On Buck
This buck was walking around with netting on his rack for awhile and my Facebook friend, Mike Persichini was able to get help in getting it off. The first picture is September 24th and the second is October 3rd. A lot of hard work went into saving this beautiful animal. Many thanks to Larry Piotrowki for all his help, Mike said.
Before
After - Ta Da!
Just waking up.
Waiting for him to wake up after being tranquilized to get the netting off his his rack. He went down in 5 minutes after going 30 yards. It takes one to four hours to wake up but he woke up within two hours.
Many thanks to Larry and Mike! Awesomeness!

Louisiana Hunter Dies In Accident @ Deer Stand
A Calcasieu Parish man died in a hunting accident last Sunday in Sabine Parish.
The Sabine Parish coroner’s office has identified him as 53-year-old Paul W. Landry.
It appears that the Iowa resident stumbled on a large tree stump, causing him to tumble forward and strike his face or head on the lowest rung of his 14-foot metal ladder deer stand, Sabine Coroner Ron Rivers said.
The accident happened several hundred yards down a a high line that crosses Rattan Road off Louisiana Highway 473 in southern Sabine Parish.
Family members found Landry dead on the ground at the foot of his ladder deer stand when they went to check on him after he failed to answer repeated phone calls about noon, the coroner said.
Landry had left his residence to go deer hunting about 5:30 a.m.
Evidence shows he made several trips to take his weapon and backpack up his ladder stand.
