Wounded Hunter...
Three Yoopers went hunting in a remote forest in central Marquette county. As one of them was crossing a fallen log, he tripped, dropped his rifle and shot himself. The other two ran quickly to their unconscious friend and saw that his chest was covered with blood. Walt turned to Stan and said, "We gotta get Elmer to da hospital quick or he's gonna die." "How 'er we gonna carry 'em?" Stan asked. "Why Elmer, he weighs a good two hunnert pounds." "Hell Stan! That ain't nuttin'," assured Walt. "We carry bucks out bigge 'n 'at, all da time. We kin do it da same way." Walt was right. In no time, they were pulling their 4x4 up to the emergency room door, and doctors, nurses and orderlies rushed Elmer inside. A while later, one of the doctors gave the two worried friends the bad news, "Your friend didn't make it." Walt said, "Yeah, I thought dat gunshot hit 'em in da heart." "No," said the doctor. "The bullet actually went above the heart and through the shoulder. His chest was only covered with blood, but he might have been able to survive that." "Damn-it Stan! I told ya we shouldn't a tied 'em to da hood. All dem tree branches smackin' into 'em for da first five miles probably beat 'em to death!" "No," said the doctor. "His clothes were ripped to shreds and his body was covered with lacerations, but he might have been able to survive that, too." "See, Walt! I kept tellin' ya to hold your end up higher 'cause dat sapling was too thin. When we tied his hands and legs to it, his head kept hittin' da rocks and logs. An' I'm sure he drowned when we crossed dat crick." "Sh** Stan! You was da one dat dropped your end of the pole when you fell off dat rock. Poor old Elmer musta been unner water a whole minute while you was fumbling around with that pole an' fallin' all over yaself." "Now fellas," said the doctor. "Elmer's skull was cracked and he did have massive head injuries. But he didn't drown, and he might have been able to survive that, too." Stan and Walt looked at each other with puzzled expressions, then asked the doctor, "Den what wuz it?" The doctor thought for a few moments and said, "My guess is that the way they gutted it had a lot to do with it."

Missing Mother-in-law...
A man took *his wife and his mother-in-law to his U.P. deer camp and during the first night, the wife woke*up to find her mother missing. *She immediately woke up her husband and demanded that he go out looking for her. He grabbed his rifle and after loading it, they both went outside to search for her. As soon as they exited the camp, a loud ruckus was heard a short distance away. Rushing towards the noise, they discovered that a huge bear was facing off with the mother-in-law. The wife then said, "What are we going to do?" *"Nothing," replied her husband, "The bear got himself into this mess, let him get himself out of it."
Another Spud...
Three dudes from south/eastern Michigan loved to fish, so they wanted to try ice fishing since they had heard so many good things about the winter activity. *Since the ice was poor in southern Michigan, the three amigos headed north, across the Big Mac bridge to the land of Yoopers. *When they arrived at Little Bay De Noc the ice was frozen thick and solid. *They stopped at Bay Shore Bait and Tackle to buy all the tackle and gear they would need for some ice fishing fun. *Before they left, they remembered that they needed a spud to chop threw the ice and bought one. *About two hours later, one of them was back at the shop and said, "We're going to need another spud." He sold him the spud and then the city slicker headed back out onto the ice. *In about another*hour, he was back at the shop and said, "We're going to need another spud." The bait shop owner couldn't stand it any longer. "By the way," he asked, "how are you fellows doing?" "Not very well at all," he said. "We don't even have the stupid boat in the water yet."

Puzzled Officer...
One night during deer season, a state cop was staking out a particularly rowdy bar in the U.P. to fill his quota on DUI tickets by targeting downstate deer hunters. *At closing time, he saw a deer hunter tumble out of the bar, trip on the curb, then try his keys in five different trucks before he found his. *He sat in the front seat fumbling around with his keys for several minutes. All the other deer hunters left the bar and drove off. * Finally he started his engine and began to drive away. * The cop was waiting for him though, and he stopped the driver, read him his rights and administered the Breathalyzer test. *The results showed a reading of 0.00% blood alcohol level! * The puzzled officer demanded to know how that could be. * The deer hunter replied, "Tonight I'm the designated decoy."
 
Hunting for Hair
It was a nice sunny day in February. Leo and I were out hunting rabbits when we came upon and old rotting hollow log in a swampy area. Rabbit tracks going in and out of da log was so heavy, it looked like a superhairway. I told Leo that I would shoot a round into da log at da far end, and he should be ready if anything came out. I was carrying an over'under rifle/ shotgun combination, so I shot a rifle round into da log---nothing came out. Then Leo said for me to be ready that he would do the same for me. But he had a pump shotgun, and when da pellets hit that old wet spongy log one of them came back and hit him in da tooth----There he was, running around holding his mouth, and asking me if da tooth was broken----Hell I was laughing too hard to see---even if I would have wiped da tears out of my eyes
 
Why are they Brown?
Have you ever wondered why the Midwest's Northern deer hunting forests are always brown in color? It really isn't because of dead foliage... it's because of bear! Every year, around Thanksgiving, several hundreds of thousands of orange clad city slickers head to the great Northwoods for nine days of deer camp camaraderie and hopes of bagging a humongus turdy point buck(OOP! Sorry! Different group!). As they seek their trophy, invariably, someone kicks up a bear. The bear, then, rams it into overdrive to get out of there because he knows what is going to happen. As the fellow watches this huge dangerous animal boogie out of there, he turns white, cranks his heart rate up to* a hundred BPS(Beat Per Second), and starts to crap all over himself and everything around him. As the bear encounters other hunters on his hasty retreat, the previous scenario repeats over and over. As you can see, it takes very little time to cover a substantial area with brown. That's why the Northwoods are brown. Honest!
Occasionally, even native folk get a good cleaning out after an encounter with a bear. The worst situation one can be in is between Mama Bear and her cubs. Mama will protect and defend ber brood at all cost and the poor chap in the midst of this situation risks sitting himself to death.
Now the the true stuff. My deer camp is an equal opportunity family affair. Cousins, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, moms, dads,grandpas, grandmas or whoever are welcome. As you know, not all family members get along. A number of years back, a group of cousins and friends came into camp and wanted to hunt with us for the day. We were having success in our efforts and knew that they wanted to capitalize on our abilities and then leave without reciprication. The way you discourage this is to send them through the rottenest, irtiest, swampiest, thickest hell hole of a piece of ground that you can think of. That's what we did. The day was abnormally warm and the ice was thin and rapidly getting thinner. Near the end of the drive was a nasty swamp that opened up into a large hay field. They couldn't miss it. As the drive was concluding and everyone was is the middle of the swamp, Cuzzin Eddie chased up a bear. The silence of this beautiful day was broken with the bellow, "HOLY ______! IT'S A BEARRRRRRRR!, which could be heard at the ranger station 28 miles away. In the excitment of the moment and as the bear passed into the view of others, all one heard was screams and the sound of breaking ice. Cuzzin Eddie went in up to his crotch. His endowment ceased to exist after hitting that cold water. One of his testicles (nuts) ended up the size of a hayseed and the other was just a little feller. His girlfriend went in up to her knees and was blue by the time she got to the vehicles. Cuzzin Carolyn fell in up to her breasts. We had to slap her on the back several times to get them back where they belong. Numerous others suffered the same fate to varying degrees. Friend Mike, a guy with our group, was posted at the point of a narrow row of pines that jutted into, and was getting nervous. The bear hasitly excited the swamp and was making a beeline directly toward him and the pines. As the bear passes within 10 feet, Mike took the safety off his rifle... just in case. In the end, our guests left (never to return), the bear made it out of Dodge, and the rest of us were rolling on the ground laughing our horns off....
Oh, the swamp and pines...
BROWN!

Friend Ed lives in the area in which we hunt. He takes all of his vaation in the fall during the various hunting seasons. An avid bow hunter, Ed will be in a tree every chance he gets. One particularly nice day in early fall, Ed was in one of his favorite stands waiting for his trophy to pass through. He rode his four wheeler the mile and a half back to the stand that day and knew that if he was going to get the big one, it would probably be there. All of a sudden the crackling and rustling of brush alerts him.With bow at ready, he waits. His visions of a trophy went down the sitter when a big old bear walked right up to the base of his tree. His visions really changed when the bear stood up, looked right at him, and startedgrowling, woofing and gnashing his teeth. Ed, commenced to yelling. The bear gets back down on all fours, deliberately lifts his leg, hoses down the base of the tree, then slowly ambles off in the direction of the four wheeler. One doesn't have to be a rocket scientist of figure ot the significance of that gesture. Must be universal. Anyway, figuring he scared any potential game into the nest county with the racker he raised, Ed decided to call it a day and head for the tavern. When he got to his four wheeler, it was laying on its side and the seat had been clawed and chewed to shreds. That old bear got his revenge on that jerk who yelled at him from up in that tree. Oh, the woods...
BROWN!

Dat Way, Over Dere
A shapely Finnish girl was a counselor at a girl's camp on Wonder Lake. She was at the camp a day early to get things in order, and when her work was done, she thought it would be nice to start a sun tan "au natural", since this was private property. Suddenly, she heard male voices! She jumped up, stood in a crouch, and covered her bosom with crossed arms. Two young men approached her, asking "Which way is it to the boy's camp on Wonder Lake?" She said, "Oh, I know you guys, you just want me to point, so you can see my titties!"
**** "No, no," they said, "we just want to know what direction we must go, we're lost."
**** "O.K., she said, straightening up, and standing on her right leg and lifting her left* leg horizontally, she said, "It's over dat way!"

Lempi took a job with Odovero Construction to paint lines on M28. The first day he painted ten miles. The boss was very impressed. The second day he painted two miles. The boss was a little disappointed. The third day he only painted 500 feet. The boss sat him down and said," Lempi, how come you paint ten miles the first day, two miles the next day, but only 500 feet today?". Lempi replied, "Well boss, each day I get farther and farther away from the paint can
 
This French trapper came through the camp and took a lot of heat from the lumberjacks because he seemed so frail. Considering a pair of lumberjacks weighed about a quarter-ton, he was. He told us about the time he came upon a bear while checking his trap line. "I not scare! Shotgun on my arm, shell in my hand. Then she old bear come chase Jacques! I not scare, shotgun on my arm, shell in my hand. I run fast, she old bear run fast! I not scare, shotgun on my arm, shell in my hand! Bear chase Jacques up tree! I not scare, shotgun on my arm, shell in my hand! She old bear start climb up at Jacques! I not scare, shotgun on my arm, shell in my hand but I so damn mad I crap my pants!"

Anio is a lumberjack, and Toivo, well he sells chain saws. One day, Toivo is in Anio's shop, and he says, "wat da heck is des here chain zaws anyways?" Anio responds, "Wat, u a lumberjack, and u ain't never used no chain zaw?" Toivo - "nope" Anio - "well, ere, take dis one out in da woods wit you tomorrow, and I guarantee u will cut tree times de amount of wood ya usually do." Well, Anio is gone all the next day, and at the end of the day, he comes strolling into Toivo's shop. "Dis ere chain zaw ain't no good! I cut and I cut and I cut, an I only got one tird de amount of wood I usually do!" Toivo says "Dere must be sumptin wrong wit it, ere let me see it" Toivo grabs the chain saw and starts it up "GZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ" Anio jumps and yells, "Whats dat noise?"

Toivo and Eino left Hubbell one afternoon heading for Shop-ko in Marquette. They got as far as Champion before the car broke down. They worked on the car for a while, but couldn't get it going again, by this time it was pretty late. They walked up the road a bit to the first farmhouse on the left. They asked the woman inside for help, she said she couldn't help them with the car, but they could stay the night and get help in the morning. The next day they got up thanked the woman, got their car fixed, went on to Shop-ko and went home. NINE MONTHS Later...... Toivo goes over to Eino's house....
Toivo: "Eino, do you remember the day we went to Shop-ko and da car broke down?"
Eino: " Ya Toivo, I do."
Toivo: "Eino, do you remember the nice farmer lady dat helped us?"
Eino: "Ya Toivo, I do."
Toivo: "Eino, did you walk in your sleep dat night?"
Eino: " Ya Toivo, I did."
Toivo: "Eino, did you sleep with da farmer lady dat night?"
Eino: " Ya Toivo, I did."
Toivo: "Eino.... did you tell her your name was TOIVO?"
Eino: "uh..... ya Toivo, I did."
Toivo: "Tanks, she died and willed me da farm!"
A few years back, on the opening day of deer season, Eino and Toivo went hunting together. Sure enough, as was bound to happen with Eino and Toivo in the same swamp with guns, Eino accidently shot Toivo. Well, Eino jumps into the truck, drives down to the nearest bar and calls the ambulance. Soon, the police, game wardens, fire trucks, paramedics and the ambulance all show up at the scene of the tragedy. The paramedics work frantically on Toivo while a nervous Eino waits nearby. Finally, one of the exhausted paramedics comes over to Eino. "I'm sorry," he says, "We did everything we could. We just couldn't save him." "OH NO!" cries Eino. "My best friend! What will I do? I'm so sorry, Toivo! What could I have done to save you?" "Well," said the paramedic, with a look of disgusted anger on his face, "It would've helped if you hadn't gutted him first!"

One day, Toivo and Eino were hunting in the woods. Toivo instructed Eino that if he got lost, to fire 3 shots into the air. Eino agreed and they went on their way. After a few hours, Eino had gotten lost. He aims his weapon into the air, fires 3 shots and prays, "Please God, let Toivo see my arrows."
