That thing is nucking futs.


Whatever a 7x57 can do a 270 can do better.

True fair chase is you in the woods buttnaked with nothing but your finger nails and teeth.

If you'e fixin' to put a hole in something, make it a hole to remember.

On the evening of the opening day, we spotted three nice bucks. When we got into position for the stalk, and I noticed my buck on the opposite side of the field. We drove around to the other side, so we could make the stalk. I had about a 150 yard stalk. The buck was lying down, along a cut in the bank. As I was trying to get my Bog pod set up, the buck got up and starting running, he was 100 yards broadside. I was able to get the cross hair in front of him, and dumped him. I was using a 7stw with 160 AB.

Two firsts here. This is my first post to the Campfire and this is my first muzzle loader kill. A doe on 10/15/11. Thompson Center Impact, 250 grain Barnes SpitFire T EZ, with 100 grains of 777. Neck shot @ 20 yards from treestand. DRT, no tracking.[Linked Image]

I packed her out of the rugged area in an Eberlestock X-1.[Linked Image]

Got skunked this year!!! Guess I could have posted pics of my 'tag soup'.


One of my favorite clothing patterns is camouflage. Because when you're in the woods it makes you blend in. But when you're not it does just the opposite. It's like "hey, there's an a__hole." - Demetri Martin

Congratulations and welcome to the Campfire

I have not shot anything yet but here are a few from some friends.

This is a public land mulie Ron killed with a 243 Win/105 VLD. He made a great shot at 450yds and we got it all on video.

Scott killed this great double drop tine buck after watching him all summer. He had last years sheads mounted and now has the buck. Private ground but the farmer allows most anyone access if you ask.

This is my brother last week. He never gets near a dead deer without getting blood all over him.
