How did you pick your screen name?

[Skillet]

Wondering what the story is behind some of the names on here. Skillet was my C.B. handle, when I used to drive truck. I guess it just stuck with me.

[Doewhacker]

My full name is Johnny Doewhacker so it was an easy pick for me...

[tughillhunter]

I live on tug hill, and im a hunter. So, it was an easy addition.

[G-Man]

Mine is a nickname my hunting friends gave me years ago... you'll have to ask them what it means...

[Deerthug]

I used Turkeythug on another forum so I thought it was only fitting to use Deerthug on this one.

[WNYBuckHunter]

I have no idea other than the WNY part, which is the area of the state Ilive in.

[fasteddie]

Back in the 60's there was a movie called "The Hustler " with Paul Neuman staring as Fast Eddie Felson . One of the guys at work started calling me Fast Eddie and it caught on . There are guys I havn't seen in 20+ years that still call me thet .

After putting on weight over the years , I was thinking about dropping the "s" from the name ... not !

[Pygmy]

I am a short black fellow who wears a loincloth and a bone in my nose and my favorite "deer gun" is a blowgun with poison darts..

JUST KIDDING....

Actually, one of my hunting buddies, whom I affectionately refer to as "Fungus Face", gave me the name of Pygmy, because I am vertically challenged ( 5'6").

We were on a DIY hunt in Alaska at the time..When I was carrying a heavy load of moose meat, he called me " The Packin' Pygmy".

When I cleaned out the tent after eating moosemeat for a week straight, he called me " The Stinkin' Pygmy"..

When I started playing around on these internet forums, the handle "Pygmy" seemed like a descriptive and distinctive handle,,

[First-light]

Burt is a nickname I've had since I was young teen.

[Elmo]

_{Back in college, I bought the Tickle Me Elmo doll as a Christmas gift for my niece. On the way back, I stop by the fraternity house I was pledging and accidentally left it there. The next day the bros found it and assigned me that nickname and it stuck ever since. They used it so much (and since it's an actually name) some people in college actually thought that was my real name.}

[GreeneHunter]

I hunt Greene County .... seemed simple enough !

[greybeard]

I have a grey beard.

Same here, my real name is Edward haven't been called that in a long time.

[Lawdwaz]

You might be surprised to know that "Lawdwaz" is NOT a famous greek Mythological God. Honest.....

Lawdwaz is really just a nick name my father gave me as a little shaver. Lawrence is my first name, not sure where the rest came from. No real meaning to anyone but me and my family. Honest............

[Lawdwaz]

Classic from the Mighty Midget....................

"I am a short black fellow who wears a loincloth and a bone in my nose and my favorite "deer gun" is a blowgun with poison darts..

As a fine golden mist of Bud Light covers the screen..................................................<grin>

[132 eight pointer]

Opening day of s.z. gun 2005 I was lucky enough to have a 132 gross,130 net eight point buck walk by me at about 30 yds. So I brought him home in the back of my buddies pickup. I was torn between that name or "Buckspooker" but a decision had to be made so I went with the first name.
