Got One (pic added)
« on: November 24, 2009, 06:16:22 AM »
Killed a pretty nice buck yesterday.  I'd guess he weighed 150-160.  He was probably a 7 point but he'd broken off one side fighting.  Running shot down a steep slope at about 60 yards.  Remington Model 700 .30-06 165 grain Core-Lokt bullet.  Broke the spine and exited between the front legs.  Quite a bit of meat.  Using my lap top at the mall.  I'll try to get pics up soon.  Nothing to brag about he is old with almost no teeth left.  I'll probably make hamburger out of him.  Lots of big scrapes and rubs in the area I'm hunting.  Mountain air is thin.

Good going Swampy!  I've got a 700 in 30/06 that I've never killed a deer with!   :-[  I know it will do the job just fine though...  ;D

It's very tough to get a WiFi connection up here.

Very nice; congratulations. I've gotten nothing that good this year. Now you know... that deer would taste better, if you'd shot him with a 30-30 lever rifle!
Jesus said we should treat other as we'd want to be treated... and he didn't qualify that by their party affiliation, race, or even if they're of diff religion.

My son insisted that I bring my boltgun.  Since I was hunting on his place, I felt obligated to do as he ask.  They get the job done.
