Mountain Howitzer for deer

I thought this was a joke until the end of the article.

I still don't know if that is legit. It isn't too hard to make a deer look like that after killing it with a rifle or other weapon.

I don't think deer hunting with a howitzer is legal in any state. Personally, I think doing something like that could land a person in jail or get somebody killed. I bet we see one of these guys on the Darwin award sometime soon.

Illegal as heck in Wisconsin. I wonder about it, but do know the person to check it out. Hunting in Wisconsin is limited to a firearm fired from the shoulder, certain handguns, bow & crossbow, and falconry. Now I can not see where a mountain howitzer fits any of those qualifications, best thing would to put wings on it and teach it to fly.

Ok thats just wrong. Its bound to be a hoax because that is one of the most rediculous things I've ever heard. G-nah!

On another note, yall can't give me a hard time about being overgunned anymore.

And I thought hunting with my Barrett 50BMG would be unsportsman like.
