I got the invite on three ML only hunts, so I had to buy one --- never needed one for the extra 4 days of season that I could already hunt with a bow.

I will be shooting a new camo/blue TC Impact, 250 grain shockwaves or Dead Center 240 grain 40/50 sabots over 100 grains of Pyrodex pellets ignited by Winchester or CCI 209 primers. I will be hunting open sights which are fiber.

I have not yet received the gun, but it and the supplies are ordered. I hope to achieve 2" groups at 50 yards which will be my self imposed limit until I get a few ML kills under my belt.

Good luck to everyone, happy hunting and safe shooting.

Scratch the TC, I called Cabelas and they hadn't shipped it yet so I got them to change my order to a CVA Optima Black Synthetic/Stainless. Everything else remains the same. I talked it over with one of they guys who invited me to hunt and 17 out of 28 members run Optimas out of the club he is in. None have had failures and they only hunt ML all season long. That was better than guesswork on the Impact.

Live simple. Hunt Hard. Love Life.

I thank God everyday for my loving wife and all the fond memories of hunting with my Papa from a child until now.

Please take time to take a kid hunting, it will be a life long memory and blessing for both of you!
