Well I finally went out and did some hunting today. Since the cold weather the deer are moving pretty good. I saw some MONSTERS...on private property!! Too bad they wouldn't cross the fence. I saw 3 different herds of 'Lope, 1 herd about 100 head, the other 2 were 50-60. I've never seen them in that area before...note to self!!! Saw some very pretty country and some good animals. I shot a whitetail doe @ 186yds...bad shot on my part. I guess it can be called doe fever also. She did drop on the spot but I went ahead and shot her again. 1st shot was high and spined her, 2nd shot = DRT. I shot a 'Lope doe @350yds...ok shot. She was broadside facing right, but she turned her head to look back left right when I shot so the shot hit her in the side of the head. Not too happy about that but her head covered right where I was aiming. I had a steady rest and everything, sometime things happen. Anyway, here's the pics...it was a little cold this morning and I HATE THE COLD!!!! Sorry about the 2nd pic, I didn't have anybody around to take a better picture. All in all, I had a great day. It was fun, even if I didn't kill anything. I guess my shooting could've been better.   *we band of 45-70ers* USAF AMMO Retired! | ||

What do you mean "even if you didn't kill anything"? You killed two animals! Congratulations! Good shooting! "Ignorance you can correct, you can't fix stupid." JWP If stupidity hurt, a lot of people would be walking around screaming. Semper Fidelis "Building Carpal Tunnel one round at a time" | |||

Give the guy a break. He's having to deal with the fact that neither of the animals were chipmunks. Hasn't he suffered enough? If ignorance is bliss; there are some blissful sonofaguns around here. We know who you are, so no reason to point yourselves out. | |||

Dude, he'd be lucky to be alive if he had to face down two chipmunks! Regards, Robert ****************************** H4350! It stays crunchy in milk longer! | |||

Just be happy you don't have the nightmares that I have. Not a night goes by without the beady eyes of Atilla the Munk invading my dreams........  Just make sure you have enough gun when facing chipmunk.........  "Ignorance you can correct, you can't fix stupid." JWP If stupidity hurt, a lot of people would be walking around screaming.
