Does this fall under the “other stuff” category?View attachment 1031145
Nice one Nate!
I think we're gonna need to see more blood and guts in order to fit into the "other stuff" category lol.
I just watched one with antlers that size walk thru the back, if I would have been quick it would have been easy pickens, but I have no license and gun doesn't start for a few days, so no shooty, shooty any deer.
 
Well, I milled the last of the cherry firewood logs today, and I decided to "live edge" this one, as I just couldn't bring myself to saw out the "sweep" in this log,

Probably the only one I will get this year. I usually try to take 2 per season but, I just found out I have Kidney cancer and will be having surgery in a few weeks. I have 4 more similar size deer coming to my feeder, not counting the does. I also found out my firewood scrounger makes a great deer hauler.

Now that's some nice "other stuff".
Sorry about the diagnosis, sure hope they can get it all and get you back up and running right away.

Nice buck! Hope your surgery goes well.
 
Doc says I will be in and out same day and wont need any chemo. I started passing blood about 6 months ago. Local doc blamed it on kidney stones. Which the CT scan did show a large stone. Any ways, I kept having back pain and everytime I mowed the grass or did any lifting, I would start peeing blood again. I passed a stone which hurt so bad it had me puking. I went back and told the doc about it and again got the normal, that happens with kidney stones. A couple weeks later I was peeing blood again and so I called the doc and said, Look we got to do something, so they set up the CTscan. Next day they called and told me they wanted to do another ct scan with contrast. Thats when they make you drink the dye before the scan. Next day they call and told me to go to a urologist. He looked at the scan and sent me straight to another doctor, which I seen today. Right now he says I have a mass on the side of my kidney, but he can do robotic surgery and remove it. He also said I had another kidney stone that was to large to pass. Plan is to put in a stint and remove the stone and do the surgery at the same time. He sees no reason he cant get the entire mass in one operation. Operate in the morning and have me home the same day. I have already told the wife to pick up a bag of depends and pee pads. I have had a stint in before and as long as you have the stint, you cant control your bladder.
