Two deer hunters were standing on a ridge near a highway in rural south western Pennsylvania on the opening day of deer season.
They both saw a trophy-class buck meandering towards them. As the
one hunter raised his gun to shoot, a funeral procession came slowly by.
The hunter lowered his gun, took off his hat, and stood with his
head bowed until the procession was past. Of course by then, the deer
was long gone. The other hunter exclaimed "Wow!
That was the most sportsmanlike act I've ever seen! You allowed this
trophy buck to escape while showing such compassion and kindness toward
someone's dearly departed. You are a great humanitarian and a shining
example to sportsmen throughout the world!"
The first hunter nodded and said; "Well, we were married for 42 years."
