It was Saturday morning as Bill, an avid hunter, woke up ready to go bag the first deer of the season. He walks down to the kitchen to get a cup of coffee, and to his surprise he finds his wife, Betty, sitting there, fully dressed in camouflage.
Bill asked her, "What are you up to?" Betty smiles and replied, "I'm going hunting with you!" Bill, though he had many reservations about this, reluctantly decided to take her along.
Later, they arrived at the hunting site. Bill sets his wife safely up in the tree stand and tells her, "If you see a deer, take careful aim on it and I'll come running back as soon as I hear the shot."
Bill walks away with a smile on his face knowing that Betty couldn't bag an elephant, much less a deer. Not ten minutes passed, when he is startled as he hears an array of gunshots.
Quickly, he starts running back. As he gets closer to her stand, he hears Betty screaming, "Get away from my deer!"
Confused, he races faster towards his screaming wife. And again he hears her yell, "Get away from my deer!" followed by another volley of gunfire.
Within sight of where he had left his wife, he is surprised to see a man, standing there, with his hands high in the air. The man, obviously distraught, says, "Okay, lady, okay. You can have your deer. Just let me get my saddle off it."
