Hunting Pranks

[Stahler]

this wasnt done while hunting but it could have been. I drive to work in the mornings with 3 other guys that are on my rig crew. I was getting tired of having to drive while they slept so one day I found a stretch of road that had nice smooth ditches and slowly slowded down to about 50 k and then steered into the ditch and started screaming too. They screamed like little girls and didnt sleep for months

While still a resident of Sask., two groups of us would go elk & moose hunting in the area around Greenwater Lake Park. Each group had a tent, and all of the whistles & bells that were required to provide comfort for the week or ten days that we would be in the bush. One of our guys on his way out of the bush one evening scooped up some black bear leftovers(highbush cranberries), and put it into a small jar. He put the jar on the table in the other tent. The next morning at breakfast one of the guys tried it out on his toast. What a racket & commotion, as buddy started swearing profusely at one of his partners wife for making such *****ty jam.

Some of you are probably familiar with Hal SHOCKEY, Jim's dad.

Hal is a character and at the Mayo float plane base there is an outhouse.

Inside this outhouse is a "human" skeleton sitting there......

He and I spent the better part of an hour laughing at the guys, mostly clients, as they opened the outhouse door....

Some guys almost fall backwards.....

Out chasing bull moose a few days before Halloween several years back. Three of us camping in a small trailer in the middle of the bush just off an oil/gas road. The evening hunt was over and we sat back in the trailer talking about the day for awhile and sipped on a few grown up pops. At about 11pm, all three of us needed a pee break. We stepped outside - it was clear and moonless - truly pitch black.

I was going to attend a halloween party that year dressed as Jason Vorhees from Friday the 13th. Had the coveralls, mask, and plastic machette in my truck. After finishing my business, I quickly hopped into the costume and walked around to the other side of the trailer where one of the guys was just finishing up.....

... when I stepped in front of him holding the machette up in the air (just outside of stream range) I swear he jumped back 6-8 feet and screamed "JESUS!!"

I'm glad all of our firearms were cased and locked up for the night. Laughed until I just about vomited.

Was out on a diver duck shoot one day on lake stclair in ontario. One of our buddies goes out to retrieve a couple downed ducks.. My other buddy says hand me his shotgun.. I handed it over to him,, he throws in a couple 12 gauge flares. Had a flock of scaup come in and he was the only one too stand and fire.. you could hear the howling from all the nearby blinds.. he checked his gun every time after retrieving ducks from that day on.

once when my dad was young, he was camping with my uncle and their freind, and their freind wouldnt get up in the morning to go hunting so my dad backed the truck up to his tent and put the exaust right inside his tent. that got him up in a hurry.

my uncle told me that when he used to sheep guide, the same guy used to go get his dessert everyday before the cook put it on the table, so my uncle took moose turds and put them in a bowl with some icing sugar on top and put it beside all the desserts because he knew that his freind would try to eat all the deserts. he did.

my uncle also used to treeplant and his camp was pretty close to a vegatarian tree planting camp. my uncle killed a deer and skinned it than put the carcus on their dining table at night.

Great thread and good stories guy's.

A long time ago we were moose hunting and staying the week-end in a wall tent. It was mid november and very cold with a couple feet of snow. After one buddy fell asleep we quietly picked his cot up and carried it outside and put it along side the tent, if he woke up he would still hear us drinking inside.

It was about 45 min later, then we hear BRRRRRRRRR... F### it's cold in here.
I don't think i ever laughed so hard as that night. At that time he must of pulled his sleeping bag over his head and tried to go back to sleep, still not knowing he was outside. Then about 15min later, he stepped out of his bag to put wood in the stove, only to step into two feet of snow. Then the swearing started, good thing it was cold out, gave him time to cool down trying to get back into the tent.

I also set up a mounted 160 whitetail buck out in a cutblock and tricked my 70year old uncle into shooting it.[/QUOTE]

Now thats to funny!!! You just gave me some great ideas for this fall

If someone in your vehicle falls asleep while you are driving, slam on the breaks, hold down the horn and cry out all at once.

Obviously discretion must be used as to when and where you attempt this prank. The results can be quite hilarious if executed correctly.

Even better, when your passenger is asleep, find a semi in one of those roadside pulloffs and approach slowly from the front. Then slam on the brakes, holding the steering wheel with both hands, push yourself back in the seat and scream. Your passenger might just have an accident as they wake up to see a semi's headlights in the front window. You don't have to be going very fast, either, a barely registering speed will still give you quite the lurch forward when braking quickly and the person just waking up won't know the difference.

As said above, though, use discretion.

One of the boys in our group would go to the same spot in the bush to have his morning glory day after day, we pulled his trail cam off a bear bait set up and put it by his pooping grounds. The day before he was going to retrieve the camera off the bait site we put it back in the original position. The look on his face was priceless when he was flipping through the pictures. First confusion and then shock. I can't write what he said to us but we all had a good laugh.

well 1 night after several wobly pops, my buddy calls it a night . so me and a good buddy get to the planning. turns out you can hook a wire to a spark plug then run it up to the spring under the seat on a quad. needless to say everytime you try to start you get a nasty shock. in the morning he woke up pretty quick after the ole berries got cooked. ( PAY CLOSE ATTENTION ) act all cocky after he tells you about it walk over and for christ sakes whatever you do dont get on the quad just hit the starter and she will start without the shock. TURN IT OFF and tell him to get on and quit holding the hunt up. well of course he sees you didnt get a jolt and gets on and whammy he gets her again. after contemplating the problem get around the engine and fiddle alittle with the battery cables, let go completely and tell him to hitter. owwiie thats a third zap. really tear into this thing and pull the seat up quick the wire should come off, and you get away scott free, after noticing a loose odd wire pull it and make no big deal. bet it works the next year on him.

take it to em'

This gives me great ideas..... This is something I did a few years back to a buddy of mine. He was always playing pranks on me for one thing or another. A bit of history first, An uncle of mine is a truck driver and he went to mexico and came back with a case of pure vanila. They were in plactic bottles that looked like water bottles. SO My buddy was thristy and wanted a drink, so I gave him a bottle of "water". Needless to say he didn't take a second drink. I got a good laugh out of it. He hasn't got me back yet for that either.....

years ago while guideing for an outfitter west of fox creek AB,
the camp was an old sawmill site,
and there was this group of yankes, that like to stay up and drink a few to many wobly pops, well after the cook would shut the power generator off this 1 guy would wth out a doubt head for the outhouse armed wth jst a flashlight in his rubber boots and gonch, wel in the guides shack we had about a two yr old mount of a B bear cub standing on its hind leggs, so one night we decided loosen some old boards on the out house, my freind had a deep voice so when the yanke opened the door of the outhouse i pushed the bear in the back of the out house and my friend roared, needless to say the old yanke tripped on his two left rubber boots landed face first in a huge mud hole screaming like a little girl , that he was being attacked by a grizz

I used to work at a golf course. One winter I caught a very large pike icefishing, and on the way home from the lake, stopped at the golf course, walked out onto the frozen water hazard with all my fishing gear, and took a bunch of pictures of me triumphantly holding my prize. The water hazard of course had no fish in it, but that didn't stop me from telling the others I pulled it out from there.

One of my golf shop staff (a retired gentleman who was a lot of fun - and a very much above board kinda guy) of course didn't believe it and suspected a prank... but he wasn't 100% sure. SO, I got a buddy of mine to call the golf course pretending to be the editor of a big fishing publication wanting to do a story on this pike he had heard of. I was hiding in the back room watching my employee sqirm on the phone as the "editor" kept saying, "I need a quote for this article and am under a deadline. I can't wait to talk to your boss when he gets back. I'm going to use your name"... My empoyee, being a very honest guy and someone not sure if this was a true story or not, was adamantly telling the "editor" that he didn't want his name used in print.

After the phone call, I reappeared in the golf shop where I was greeted with a frantic explanation of the phone call.

He didn't believe the big pike was caught at the golf course, but he did believe the editor of Field and Stream was calling... Man, were we laughing over that one.
