The
big game hunter walked in the bar and bragged to everyone about his hunting skillls.
The man was undoubtedly a good shot and no one could dispute that.
But then he said that they
could blindfold him and he would recognize any animal's skin from its feel, and if he
could locate the bullet hole he would even tell them what caliber the bullet was that
killed the animal. The hunter said that he was willing to prove it if they would put up
the drinks, and so the bet was on.
They blindfolded him carefully
and took him to his first animal skin. After feeling it for a few moments, he announced
"Bear." Then he felt the bullet hole and declared, "Shot with a .308
rifle." He was right.
They brought him another skin,
one that someone had in their car trunk. He took a bit longer this time and then said,
"Elk, Shot with a 7mm Mag rifle. He was right again.
Through the night, he proved
his skills again and again, every time against a round of drinks. Finally he staggered
home, drunk out of his mind, and went to sleep.
The next morning he got up and
saw in the mirror that he had one hell of a shiner. He said to his wife, "I know I
was drunk last night, but not drunk enough to get in a fight and not remember it. Where
did I get this black-eye?" His wife angrily replied, "I gave it to you.
You got into bed and put your hand down my panties. Then you fiddled around a bit and
loudly announced, "Skunk, killed with an axe."
