They came back I shot a doe

Shot this Saturday evening. 150 yards with a .257 Weatherby.

I wouldn't have the balls to eat them.

Oh my..... She's been a NAUGHTY girl.... She must be PUNISHED !! I think she should be sentenced to spend a week with me in the celebrity suite down at Mabel's House of Pleasure and Pain... " Hello, Mabel's House of Pleasure, Master Pygmy speaking.." " Theresa ? Sorry, she can't come to the phone...She's tied up right now..." <<click>>

This guy had his nose well up into the butt of a doe a couple days ago. Now he is in my shed..................... Of COURSE it is worth going hunting!!

I enjoy using all of toys.. This year , as usual, I have carried my 7mm08 most of the time, and have shot 2 deer with her..She is just such a SWEET THANG to carry in the deer woods.. However, I also took my M1 Garand out a couple of days, and my 9.3 x 62 a couple of days, but got no shooting with either of them.. JUST TO BE FAIR, I think I'll hunt with my trusty old M 70 .280 rem for the rest of rifle season. I haven't shot a deer with it since my CO mule deer hunt last year.. I think I have heard her whining from the gun safe, wanting to go hunting... She just keeps saying " Take ME, Clarkie.... You KNOW you love me...." And I just happen to have a box of 140 grain TTSX reloads left over from my Colorado hunt last year...

Thanks, hope this works Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

Traditions Deerhunter 50cal percussion. 90gr of 777 FFG. 385gr Great plains conical. It has a brass blade front sight.

wondering why you actually support the ban?

my dad filled his buck tag @ camp in 8P @ 8:30am, 12/5/15, only deer seen that morning.. the buck was cruising nose down, after letting many deer walk this year..he chose him to be tag worthy. he thought he was bigger than what he was when he shot, it happened so fast, he almost regretted shooting him, it took a few minutes and then dad became very happy with his decision .. he will be on the wall from the shoulder up! .. My dads age is starting to catch up with his abilities like he used to.. 1 proud son right here.

I couldn't update from the stand yesterday because the cell service is hit or miss from that location. But I got my projects completed early enough to go for an afternoon sit, and got in to the stand at about 2:45. About 3:45, this guy shows up. I already filled my buck tag, so the only thing I was shooting him with was a video camera. He was following a doe, and after watching him for a few minutes, he slipped off through the woods with his girlfriend. I don't know if I would have taken him if I still had a tag, but after looking at the video, I may be tempted during the late season when I'm back in the game with a buck tag. I had a few more does filter in and punched the lone doe tag I had with a 10 yd neck shot about 30 minutes after the buck left. The freezer thanked me!

But today I did...finished cleaning th 8pt 's head for a euro mount...just need to buy whitener....I skinned and quartered him yesterday and thought while doing so. I shot you out of Rivers blind..I mentioned in another post I named the new blind Rivers blind for our new grandson...Then I thought......I shot you the year River was born...hhmmmm Wouldn't it be nice to make a euro mount for his room when he's a bit older...I always wondered how hard it would be to skin a deer head,,,Dang the whole thing start to finish was easier than sawing those dang racks off IMO... Not sure I did it right but it's clean as a whistle...I think I may do one for each buck I take from that stand over the years until he's old enough to hunt it himself....Then I can teach him how to do his own...

First you need a trap door from living room to basement to hoist up " already decorated fake tree "

That is a LOT of powder for a gun only designed for black powder or black powder substitute. Blackhorn only recommends 84 grains by weight as a max charge, just be careful...

While VJP and I don't agree on much, I do agree that the proposal lacks due process and adequate balance. Anyone can end up on a list, even you and me.

I have only ever hunted with one muzzleloader, a TC Hawken .50 cal. that my ex-wife bought me for my birthday in 1973. I used it for years with the factory sights until my eyes got too old for them. I installed an aftermarket tang peep sight, which I still use today.. For years I shot PRBs with 90 grains of 2F blackpowder or pyrodex and a #11 cap. A few years back, as a result of an elk hunt, I switched to a Noexcuses 460 grain conical with 80 grains of 3F 777 and a CCI magnum #11 cap.. It works as well on deer as it did on elk and shoots plenty flat and accurate out to 100 yards, which is as far as I will shoot with it.. In fact I don't think I ever took a shot at game with it over 75 or 80 yards.

We can just pick them up off the dead ISIS "soldiers" (I use that term loosely).

Until intelligent people get elected and change it, just as they are trying to do with Obamacare. Or until another 2nd Amendment case gets to the SCOTUS and overturns all of these unconstitutional gun laws. With the help of ISIS in America, it won't be long before full automatic weapons are legal for responsible American citizens to own again.

Obama is a flake. We all know how he got into office. Most people wanted him out after his first term, so how did he get elected for a second? This country isn't run by the people we vote for, but, by the companies that support who is elected. Obama has less then a year left and he will do what ever it takes to destroy this country! The gloves are off people, you need to take a side and stand by it! I still choose freedom!

He/she won't respond to your question. He/she is an anti gun troll who comes to this sight to educate all the" Neanderthals" when www.buytheworldacoke/hugacriminal/youdontneedagun.gunowners are morons.com is too busy.

Here's the only common sense exhibited by the SCOTUS in this case: "Justices Clarence Thomas and Antonin Scalia dissented, saying that lower courts have been ignoring Supreme Court precedents on Second Amendment rights." Not hearing a case does not mean the law is Constitutional.

Wolc said "I did this one that my buddy killed on opening day with a 3000 psi power washer." Wait! He killed it with a 3000psi power washer? Now that's impressive! Looks good too! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not a pretty rack, but a mature buck none the less. From the spread at the antler bases I guess about 3 1/2 years old. Most challenging shot I ever made. 120 yds, 20yds inside the brush. Iron (peep) sights, facing almost straight on. All I could see was his chest, the top of his legs & the white spot on his nose. I had to study the sight picture for a few reference point on the tree that was next to him as when I looked through the aperture I had a hard time picking an aim point on the deer's chest. I hit him dead center through the windpipe just above the midpoint between his chin & brisket. 160gr Hornady FTX over 49.5grs of Rl-17. 2500 fps Mv At the shot there was dead silence & no movement where the deer was standing. After watching the spot for several minutes & got down from my tripod & walked to the edge of the brush before I could see him. From the way he was bunched up he must have pitched down nose 1st. The bullet never entered the chest cavity. It must have taken out the spine.I hope to find the bullet when we butcher him. If you look cloesly, about 1/2 way between the muzzle & the left edge you can see the gray roof of the tripod stand 120 yds disdtant. Here is a zoomed shot from where the deer was laying. I think he was standing a little to the left as that large tree on the edge of the brush was what I used as a sight reference.

So typically I am very careful about cleaning all venison during butchering to remove all fat, silver skin and connective tissue. I tend to have smaller yields, but no one ever complains that the venison tastes gamey. For this reason, I generally just toss the neck as its way too much work to remove all of the connective tissue. What a mistake. Yesterday I decided to try a neck roast from the deer I shot on Friday. I basically just removed the slab of meat/etc. around the vertebrae. It was marbled with lots of stuff that I figured would kill the taste, but I gave it a shot. Threw the meat in a crock pot with cream of mushroom soup, onion soup, celery, mushrooms and a little water. Let it cook for 9 hours. It was absolutely delicious. The meat was falling apart tender and it had no gamey taste whatsoever. I was shocked and a bit upset that I wasted the neck on the last four deer this year. Never again. Neck stew is now one of my favorites. Over some mashed potatoes, it can't be beat. Give it a try or, if you prefer, send me the neck.

Im ready to get a vinyl decal that just sticks on the wall .

Easier to just hang a picture of a beautifully decorated tree.

The future of America is in the hands of the people, not the politicians. One day, they might even remember this and take it to heart. Probably gonna have to get real bad first tho.

I make fajitas with them. I slice them up thin, like you would a green pepper, just make sure to trim the fat off of the outside, and basically cut the top of it off. You will also run into little stringy tendons that you will want to slice out. I then fry it in olive oil along with garlic, peppers and onions (start those first) and season with homemade fajita seasoning (google a recipe). I serve it up on tortillas with sour cream and hot sauce.

Sure glad I have a NYS wildlife viewing License. Had 6 does within 15 yards, can't shoot them .NO DMP this year. Had a nice spike at 60 yards, also can't shoot him, need to be 3pts on one side. Can't wait to not shoot anything again next year. :crying:

thanks Mom

I'm betting a whole lot less shots taken this year also Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Last year I carried 21 different weapons during regular season in like 12 or 13 different chamberings. Life's way better with options ????????

Pretty sure I stepped on and snapped every possible stick on the way in. 12-15 turkeys roosted 60 yards from my stand. Scared the poop out of me crashing thru the tree tops as they flew out Still see a bunch in trees, most on ground. Holy kee kee run, yelps , putts from all around me. Awesome !!!

Can't get them laying in bed or sitting on the couch! I have shot my3 biggest bucks on the last day of shotgun season & the first day of late ML seasons.

Thanks for most of the replies guys. Rob, not just noticed, trying to counter as I am a new bowhunter and not afraid to admit I don't know everythng. Probably been outside more than you, and I definitely have better manners.

can I just mail the brewery a check and not drink Genny?

Other than another drive or two in 8G, we're done with deer for the year. We've got our meat, & there's so few deer around camp (8N), that we closed deer season early down there. No DMP'S filled there (intentionally). Eat it DEC! Excited to be back to squirrels! Got this one there yesterday.

It depends on its weight. If its over 1000lbs, its the same as a tractor. Orange triangle is all you need. If its under that, you are SOL at this point in our lovely state. Just search the DMV website for the info.

I have not had a shot opportunity at an adult deer all season until Friday , Dec 4th.. Since then I have killed a buck and a big doe, plus could have shot another buck, if I hadn't already got one.. Go hunting...You may not see any deer, but if you stay home your mother-in-law might decide to come over and visit..

I'll be out tomorrow and or Thursday to try and tip over another doe. Still room in the freezer Can't shoot them from the couch. It only takes one

I'm heading up to 4w-Hancock Thursday night. Last chance till next year. Lawdwaz buck has me fired up. Nice job man.

I will be out again Wednesday to try for another deer . Buck or doe doesn't matter .

OK OK thanks thats what I was hoping to hear!! gonna leave wed night to 3k thanks everyone ,I even feel better!

I will be making the trip up to 3f because they tell me it aint over till the fat lady sings.

Obama is delusional.

Pretty much what I expected from Obama " Don't criticize all Muslims. Most are good, honest hard working people….Guns are bad.. blah..blah..blah It is not a war between America and Islam. Its a war between America and Radical Islam…Even if Obama can't lower himself to say it.

I wear my safety vest under my jacket, not difficult. I don't wear my gloves or neck coozy in, I add as its needed.

Taken in 9p around 8:45 am at 118 yards with a Browning x-bolt .270. The top of the heart was sheerd off and she dropped in her tracks. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
