Unload hunting partners gun when he is out tking a leak. Next volley that comes in, he has nothing to shoot. Always a classic.
My favorite happened to me this morning. Shot history = Buddy busting my chops for not being able to go hunting or fishing cause I'm married BS... So he invites me on a hunt today. Meet me at X Wawa, 5:00am. OK cool. I get up at 3:30am, pack the dog and gear, get to X Wawa promptly at 5:00. Wait for an hour, called buddy no answer. Hmmm, well the sun is about to come up, and I know we are 45-1 hour away from the blind, oh well grab another cup of coffee and head home. Get a call a little while later from buddy, "Sorry, I over slept". I laughed all the way home.:wacko: BTW he knows where the acorns are

As revenge for a practical joke, a friend of mine put a dead merganser in the bottom of a pair of his buddies waders on the last day of the season. Well he didn't find it until later in the summer so you could imagine what that was like. Let's just say he had to buy a new pair.

and place her skin on a low hanging tree branch and set up a drive with your buddies - all but the guy next to you knows about her and her whereabouts. Get close and shout doe coming on your side and watch him unload his gun... Worked about three year ago and boy was it funny.

I take my hunting to serious, plus safety is a priorty. You guys screwing with weapons and fake deer don't belong in the woods. Go Back and Take A Hunting Safety Course.
What fool would shout at a fake deer or hide, I want to be a thousand miles from any idiot that can't tell the difference.
This is the exact reason I am hunting instead of fishing this fall so my son will learn the proper way to do things and not kill someone.
I'm off my soap box now.

One of our hunting buddies went to bed real early before opening day. Everyone else at camp decided to set all of the clocks and his watch ahead 5 hours. When alarms went off at 5am (actually midnight) everone got dressed, fixed breakfast, ate, and headed out the door to their stands. Every one promptly returned to camp after the the victim was well into the woods.
He said he knew he had been had, when by the time the sun was supposed to rise it was not even getting gray. He ended up staying in is stand because he did not have any idea what time it was and he did not want to miss first light. He did not kill a deer that morning but he was both pizzed and impressed by the joke.

After cleaning up the boat, putting rods and rigs away and heading in from offshore with a couple of hours to go, the mate fell asleep on the couch in the salon. After awhile, I put a few ice cubes on the crotch of his pants. This allows the ice to melt slowly without notice. When he awoke later and came out to the cockpit, we all looked and said he must have wet himself while sleeping!! He was none the wiser...laughs all around!

years ago i took an entire deer hide,head feet and all and did something similiar. I rested it on a low hanging branch near a bush and put her about 30yds off a road the weekend of opening day of gun season. My house was about 150 yds or so from where the deer was and i happened to be out hunting in the woods when a road hunter came up and opened fire on the deer. My mom heard the shot and saw the guy jump out of the truck and run over to the deer and the took off in the truck after thy saw it wasn't real.
I've got to say that the most common heard joke in the duck/goose blind is always related to those old lead shells.

Mid day hunt went load the dogs. A older member "Jelly-Belly-Spriull" saw one of the hounds taking a piss on a small bush with leaves. Jelly reaches down with his pocket knife and cuts it off at ground level. Jelly signals for me to keep quiet, he walks over to another member and starts wacking him on the leg between his boot and knee. The guy says Jelly what the He@@ are you doing? Jelly said man you got some bees on ya I'm just knock'em off! Man leave them things alone before thay sting me or somebody! The next kennel that guy opened about 2-3 walkers commenced to pissing on that dude's leg. I liked to fell out!::roflguy: :roflguy:

I agree that changing shot shell loads and fire at phantom targets are not the proper practical joke around firearms.
My favorite is to unload a partners shotgun when they leave the blind to relieve themselves...a flock comes in and nothing for them...
Another favorite is to retrieve a bird for a new gunning buddy and slip a "gag" band on the leg...I have bands that say " You killed me!"... then nonchalantly drop the bird at the guys feet... they get sooo excited, all the other guys are in on it since they had this pulled on them at one time or another..

One of my fellow hunt club buddies had a running battle of practical jokes on each other,
you know stealing his skinning knife and leaving it in the back of his truck,
one morning he tripple salted my eggs at breakfast.
I retaliated by jacking his truck up and putting blocking under the axels so the tires just barely touched the ground.This went on back and forth until one day at lunch I was admiring his gun and slipped a tooth pick behind the triggerand broke it off flush.That afternoon he pulled down on a big buck and squeezed ,,,,,,nothing.
He surrendered that evening ,,,, I think?????

My cousin and I were doing a small two-man drive for my uncle (his father) and my father. This was in Pennsylvania during an antlerless-only season. We heard a shot while we were making the drive, and when we arrived at the standers, my uncle didn't say a word, just smugly pointed down into a strip-mine pit where a deer was laying (first deer in many years). My cousin and I crawled down into the pit, and began dragging the deer up to him.
We passed a dead tree that had branches exactly the color of an antler, and I snapped one off and held it on the head. I called up something about it being a small buck. All I heard from my uncle was something like "not so loud!". By the time we reached him, he was almost sweating in the cold, and then I pulled the branch away.
Up until that point, I never knew that my uncle knew the "f" word.
