Hunting deer 10 years ago, I had one in my sights at a mere 50 yards, but my fly went: POP! goes the weasel, and my other "piece" flopped out like a rapidly-inflating Mae West designed for a Blue Whale (yes, Martha, they make 'em for old whales undergoing rehab after an alcohol-induced beaching). Well the damned deer busted me, and took off running. Fortunately, since it was only 50 yards away, he stumbled over my member, fell into a ravine and died of a broken neck. Saved a $1.35 on a .270 round by getting my deer the old-fashioned way.
