What's the dumbest thing you have done while hunting?

The only thing I can think of now is when I was walking to my stand in archery season and halfway in my light went out. It was so dark out I couldn't even see my hand in front of my face. I was feeling around the ground to find a log to sit on and finally did. While I was sitting there in the dark I heard something walking towards me and I started getting scared. I just started yelling like a little girl and whatever it was stopped or left. It was very unnerving.  :o ;D

Oh man, thanks for the stories guys, I'm laughing so hard I'm crying. 

I trusted a fart while checking the turkey cams this year. Big mistake. I didn't have a pocket knife so I got down in the gullie and stripped. I came out without my boxers and both socks.

I convinced my buddy to quit using a 20 single shot and use a 12 gauge. He got his granddads old Winchester pump which needed a good cleaning. While trying to shuck a shell in, it didn't want to ratchet forward. So he put the barrell against my floorboard and switched hands. Now with his left hand on the grip and right hand on the fore stock he should be able to make a quick snap and shove it forward. Well, the old pump winchesters don't have the trigger saftely of modern guns and will fire when fully forward if the trigger is down during the pumping action.   Luckily the exhaust pipe caught the blast and not the tranny.

A friend of mine said he buddy killed a tom out in front of his decoy and got up to get him. He had to cross a fence to his left , walk down the fence then cross back over into the field where the bird was. As he walked down the fence he saw a big red head in the wheat and quickly dispatched another shell to keep him down for good. The next thing he saw was his decoy spinning around in circles.

Dumbest thing I ever did was take my wife hunting.  Now she has the bug and i think I'll be spending all my time tracking up her deer and roosting her turkeys.  Hehe, I love it.

Probably not the dumbest, but the funniest, I took my wife hunting, we arrived at my spot a little early so we sat in the truck listening to the radio, as I went over everything, making sure she was ready, and had everything she needed, she doesnt hunt much so she always wears some old camo of mine to make do, well I see that she doesnt have her face mask so I dig around in my vest to find her one, (it seems I have one in every pocket) ang give it to her to go ahead and put down around her neck, so after a few minutes I tell her ok its time to go and I get out of the truck, and wait by the tail gate, and I wait and wait, so I go around and open the door on her side to see what the hold up is, and the look on her face, like catching a kid with there hand in the cookie jar. In her playing with the head net in the dark , she had left it on over her face, and then decided to spit her chewing gum out, when I opened the truck door, she had gum all matted in the head net and strung out from both hands into  about 3 fingers in each hand, she looked so helpless, I laughed till I was crying
