    I'm calling the game warden! I reserve that spot for my hunting only! :D Nice buck. Don't see many like that, at least not around here.

    None of my broadheads would have left that flap of skin on the finger. He bound to have been shooting shorts off an overdraw. My broadheads just barely come back to my hand. No way I could do that with my setups.

    I don't care for that either, Stig, though I understand their thinking. They want to take a dangerous game animal armed only with a bow, but realize the inherent danger of such a proposition, and so have a back-up shooter to help offset catastrophe should something go wrong. I don't guess I'll...

    Actually, depending on where the animal is hit, an arrow can cause more blood loss than a rifle bullet. The broadheads are designed with a helical twist to them so that as they pass through flesh, they "spin" at least slightly, slicing and dicing meat, vessels, arteries, etc. Often, a rifle...

    That favors a Remington 700 ADL...what caliber?

    I go days without eating vegetables. My dad loves vegetables, has all his life, so I grew up eating them practically every meal. I determined that once I "grew up", I would NOT have vegetables every day, but LOTS of meat! Only vegies I had yesterday, were a little coleslaw on a BBQ sammich and...

    Coyotes, foxes and skunks will kill/eat chickens/eggs. Not to mention we frequently sleep with the windows open and there's nothing like waking up at 3:00 AM with the house full of skunk scent because the window fan drew it in. About twice a month one walks through my yard at night and sprays...

    Nah, no other hikers in the area. My house and my folks' house are the only inhabited houses on our road. Some days we don't see but two or three vehicles and one of them is the mailman. :) Me likes living in the sticks......

    That makes me jealous. Our rifle season doesn't open until the Saturday before Thanksgiving. Bow season opened October 15, but I haven't had time to go but once, and the skeeters ate me alive. Muzzleloader comes in the Monday before rifle season. I guess I need to put the .50 barrel on the...

    Probably so. She wasn't a mature female. I've seen larger and smaller around here. She does have about the prettiest coat I've seen in a while. I killed two last year that had good coats, but often they appear mangy. I saw one in the garden the other night, but it got away before I could get...

    Shot this coyote at 8:00 this morning. I was sitting by the woodstove drinking coffee when she came out of the woods into the edge of the yard. 95 yards/.22 magnum. OSOK.

    I have taken quite a few running shots at game and will do so again, I'm sure. Nothing ridiculous, mind you, but reasonable shots at running deer aren't that uncommon. I have killed deer at up to 200 yards while they were running. I'd much rather they stand still and pose, but often they haven't...
