A Piece Of Cake - 18
by Doug Howlett
This picture of a “redneck” wedding cake that made the rounds of the World Wide Web landed once again in my inbox (got it the first time last year and it still makes me laugh). I wonder if the person who made the cake (or worse bought it) just doesn’t know jack about deer or if this one was for a wedding in one of those states in which gay marriage has been legalized. Why? Look at the picture. Some folks do miss it at first glance. Both deer on the cake have antlers! While confused acts of dominance have been known to take place in the forest among bucks and other male wildlife, I’m not aware of any scientifically acknowledged observations where such unions have succeeded to go on more than a few moments before the baffled and usually panicked subordinate creature manages to scramble loose and flee. What's really creepy, is that if the cake does serve as a representation of an actual human union, then the 8-point is clearly much older than….ehhh, I don’t even want to go there. But the cake itself looks really nice. I can imagine some well-meaning bride getting the wedding cake made with the deer topper as a surprise for her unwitting, hunting groom. No doubt the groom took some ribbing from his buddies at the big event, which could have been the impetus for a couple of YouTube videos and other pictures I’ve seen circulating on the Web. That is, of course, if this cake ever even made it out of the bakery.

OMG, I'd seen it before and never noticed. Thanks for the heads up. I'll pass on to all my "redneck" buddys(LOL
I showed this to my wife (of 29 years) and my 22 yo daughter. My daughter almost immediately picked up on the spikes on the smaller deer. But neither one had any remotely, even infinitesimal desire to have a cake such as this for her wedding, even if she marries a hunter. (She has just graduated from The University, after all there is only ONE university in Oklahoma, the other is just a pretender and never has won a National Championship in football, and has not been seeing anyone.) I keep hoping she will marry a guy who hunts or at least is interested in learning to hunt.
Trans gender deer?... I once shot a spike whitetail buck on the last day of the season in Alberta. It definitely had a set of scrawny antlers and it definitely was a doe. As hard as we looked, my father and I could not find the necessary equipment. I did not have a doe tag in that area and thought, " Am I in trouble or what?" Fish and Wildlife told me later that it happens on rare occasions. We have a Health Care Program up here but I doubt that a young buck who yearned to be something else would qualify for that procedure. Call me a liar, but nature can play some funny tricks and this was one example. Note to all you Texans...I don't want to hear any wise cracks about the kind of deer they're raising up in Alberta. That goes for you fellows from Oklahoma too! Right, like that will stop them!
Just an observation but am I reading too much into that smirk on the big buck's face? Check for yourself! LOL
He DOES look "pretty happy" with himself Kody (LOL).
A gay redneck wedding cake--what'll they think of next? Kody--you're brave to take on Texas & Oklahoma at the same time. Keep it up--I'll watch from the sidelines.
Never seen an antlered doe? But, still gotta wonder who wears the pants in that family.
I read this artical what is funny... But then my mind starts going then out comes the relization that maybee me or maybee someone reading this comment has eaten a nice heathly gay buck!!!lol and most never even thought about it untill you read my comment. Hope I didnt upset your stomach!
There have been several nice antlered doe taken in OK over the last 20 or so years. They always make the sports section of the Sunday Disappointment, oh sorry, I mean, the Oklahoman. so it is more than possible. There was s doe several years back that had a really nice rack,(No, the one on the deer's head, guys, not that kind of rack, sheesh!! Get your mind out of the gutter) and I would have been very pleased to mount it, er have it stuffed to hang on a wall. (Get your thoughts outa that gutter, unbelievable!!!)
Anyway Kody, the only thing I know about deer in Alberta is they are bigger than those down here in OK. And if I could, I would love to hunt there sometime.
one of my uncles claims he taken a 5x5 or 10 point what ever how ever you want to say it. localy there has been more then a few stories of 140's doe but I never seen it with my own eye's but I can say I belive in it.
San Francisco deer hunters. I wonder if the cake tastes good?
Man that thing is awesome
that's one of those gay bucks that doesn't come to a doe bleat...
Tranny deer (or is it trannie deer, never had to spell that one)...now that's a scary thought. But Kody is right. While it is rare, every year, hunters shoot a handful of deer, usually small racked ones that are surprisingly does with antlers. I remember when I worked as an editor at OL that we got a story in about a 8- or 10-point that had no male sex organs. But a deer that large is a true rarity, and certainly not frequent enough to inspire a cake.
Hunteditor,
Years ago, I read about a doe with some impressive head-gear that was dropped by a proud, but very confused hunter. Personally, I've never seen a doe with antlers. I've also never witnessed any same sex relationships between deer either. This cake was probably made by someone who knows nothing about hunting. Kind of like some of the Hollywood movie producers who make moview with no true knowledge of nature. Some of these films show a whitetail buck on the screen, but the added sound effects are that of a bull elk. I even watched one movie that had a blue jay sounding off like a raspy crow. I guess most of the world today does not notice little things like that, but as a hunter it makes me laugh. Good article.

Ewww! I can't even think of anything funny to say.
thats funny travis I bought my oldest son the cabelas xbox 360 big game hunter. The mule deer would let out a big elk bugle that was funny stuff & the thing about it I paid 40 bucks for such a game.
Guys order this cake and you'll never see out of the doghouse
