With that, whenever we shot a camp deer it was always refered to as;

SPEED MEAT!

Nik,
I'll never forget the time my cousins and I did a drive some years back in the area where we hunt. There were probably about 10 or so hunters involved. A few guys and I were the closest to the road. A guy we call "Axe Murderer Bob" had his older father with them out in front of us. At one point the shots started and I heard one shot whizzing between me and another guy. Man, I never dove that fast on the ground!!!! Yea, it was the elder "Axe Murderer." Scared the stuff right outta me. It went right over the road and into the hill across there. I've never done drives again with guys I don't know, but we have done planned small drives with just us. Drives do work good as long as you know who is where and where your line of fire is...BE SAFE and KNOW WHERE YOU CAN SHOOT!
