Never deer hunted Kansas but we would bird hunt there every year when I was in my teens. Jumped bigger deer doing that than I have seen Hunting here in OK or TX
Hell...Reloading/Shooting are still my favorite things to do,besides play in the box the kids came in.................

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

What a great deer slayer of a rifle. All the guys at AO are top notch. They've cost me too much money-I have to blame myself for that.
You guys are posting some great whitetails!!!

Like many places we hunt whitetail, Kansas has a variety of habitats. Got a rifle being shipped back as I type that is built for just one of those types of hunting. Many of my deer over the years were shot at bow range or just a bit beyond. This rifle is made to order for close range brush hunting. Supposed to be here in the next couple days.
I sent a beat up Marlin 336C with a bubba'd bore I recently picked up to JES Reboring to make a cast bullet shooting 38-55 out of. Got a Skinner sight going on it and some 250 grain bullets cast from a medium soft alloy. Wife needs to make some room in the freezer cause this ol guy is making meat this fall.

I have a hunt line up for the first week in December. Haven't hunted deer in Kansas since we moved from Manhattan in January of 1980. Looking forward to it!
Ben
Some days it takes most of the day for me to do practically nothing...
