Bullet size doesn't really matter, as any well placed legal, bullet will do the job on deer. What matters more, is if the shooter behind the trigger can do their part. Or even the individual firearm. The hunter who shoots his 223, throughout the year. And knows it's POI well, will usually fair much better than the hunter who grabs a 30-06, that they have not fired in the last few years, or at all. Also, some guns, just shoot terrible! Most all of us has owned a gun, that for whatever reason, just didn't shoot like it should have. Regardless of bullet size. Whatever caliber one chooses, get out and get some trigger time on the range!! That makes much more difference than the size of the projectile.

The only hunter in my family before me was my great Uncle Sam. Passed away quite a few years ago but a recall him as a young boy. He was a hoot. Always the life of the family parties. Hunted the ADK. The first pic is him in the middle. The second pic are some ADK bucks he and his brothers killed with my father sitting on the buck and grandfather next to him. Looks like it was behind the old family home on Akinson St in Rochester. Anyone know the car? Just came across them. Kinda cool. Thought I would share.

Thai style garlic crabs, followed by a bowl of peach melba.

.22-250 or .223. I will lend you a deer rifle if you need one, but please have some respect for the game. These are for shooting little guys in black pajamas or woodchucks.

I’ll go the other way and say any magnum cartridge that the person can not shoot worth a darn. Watched guys at the range that flinched so bad they couldn’t hit the bullseye at 50 yards..

Just pulled the trigger on this GSP Sunday. Road trip on the 22nd to go pick him up.

First one shedding on my cam here in 7s

Pretty bleak 2018 beginning so a few months ago wife, daughter and I booked a trip to Disney. We’ve taken her at age 4-6-8-11 and now 16. Our last big family vacation as next year we’ll be touring colleges. Free dining plan is spectacular! They tend to throw at you as slower season. Lots of character meals . Went to Not so spooky Halloween where they have special fireworks, parade. Characters and patrons dress up. Space mountain was completely dark , real dressed up people added to Pirates of the Caribbean. Very short ride lines as everyone waiting in candy lines Ended up in Epcot 2x Magic Kingdom 3x Animal Kingdom 2x and Hollywood studios once. Average temps were 90-94 with high humidity. Usual Florida 15 minute shower / thunderstorm. Walked 11-14 miles a day. Went to Guy Fieris Chicken Shack that has 23 dipping sauces , missed him by a day. Hit the rides hard. New Avatar Flight of passage is amazing. Feels like you’re flying atop a banshee. Saw a flock of Osceola turkeys walking across the fairway at Magnolia golf course from the monorail. At the water park Blizzard beach we saw a 4’+ black snake of sorts slithering through the bushes as we waited in line. Met a slough of Buffalo people. First family lives right near Sodfathers archery academy. Dole whip with rum , yes please. 50’s prime for daughter and I to share peanut butter and jelly milkshake as we’ve done every trip. Decided every rental car there is a Toyota Corolla in silver or white. Making our silver one fun to find in huge parking lots. Bought some new snow camo in Storm trooper pattern. Always drive to Cocoa beach to play in the ocean before flying home. Got stung by a jellyfish wading the shoreline. Had a Magical time.

We have busted our hump this year. New creek bottom food plot . Had to cut down about 20 trees and then got to work on exitisting and new plot spots. Turnips, radish, clover/rye, clover /oats, buckwheat, winter peas.

I think I just threw up in my mouth

I made some ribs of my own, Biz inspired wife approved.

Went to inlaws and girls tie dyed some white converse sneakers and shirts. Then Sam n I went to help a friend who’s partially paralyzed move a redneck blind from one woods to another.

I’d have to say the queen of England. Just so I can use that to blackmail her for millions. Sex only lasts a couple minutes but millions would last me years

Had this come in from my cell cam this morning. Shedding time has begun!

Bored, so I thought I'd share a story... Two years ago, my son was obsessed with this one buck that he was getting trail cam pics of. This was the one and only buck that he wanted. Two weeks after getting his last trail cam pic of this buck, he got another pic of him, only to see that the buck had broken off his drivers side! My son was bummed to say the least! My son was out scouting today and happened to find the antler that the buck had broken off 2 years prior! Notice the chunk of skull that's still attached to the antler! That must have been one hell of a battle that buck was in to break off a chunk of it's freekin' skull like that! Good God! I have a feeling he's probably sleeping with that antler in his bed tonight! BTW, he found the antler ~100 yards from his stand.

Front bumper.

elizabeth shue.. still hot and honestly i want someone close to my age..

I said a woman, not a old woman.. but nope wait a second, hold the phone. what she lacks in looks I am sure she would make up for in skill.. hmmmmmm............

Good use for a discarded plastic toy. I was thinking of using a good plastic slide for a safer way to come out of my tree stand.

I got some work done today ,decided on wire mesh for the shelf to keep weight down. Got the through hole burned in the EDM, for the mounting bracket . I still have to figure out how I want to attach the arm to the shelf.

lol I've been canning since I have been 12 with my grandmother. I'm pretty sure I got it down by now.

Cool shots. There's an instagram account called "Old School Hunting" that's worth following: https://www.instagram.com/oldschoolhunting/?hl=en

Took the GF and her sister to Stony Brook Park for some hiking, swimming and cooking out on the grill. What a beautiful park this is... My first time there and it will not be the last! Beautiful day

Whipped up a batch tonight. Turned out great! I used Jimmy Dean sage flavor sausage, which is my favorite. Might do some with hot sausage and wild mushrooms next. Sent from my LGMP260 using Tapatalk

Would be a cool mount if used right.

Did someone throw dynamite down their hole?!?! Too soon? Some just don’t make it with little explanation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I refuse to answer this question, under the grounds it may put my butt in a sling! No good will come from this, if my wife looks at this tablet......grin

Sorry fellas I worded that wrong. 340 was the max speed of bow. With my set up im steady around the 285-292 give or take a few fps. 350gr arrow. Ive been shooting and adjusting as I go. Final set up it going to be 28 inch draw and about a half turn off from max 70lbs so say 68lbs. 350gr arrow and shooting rage broad heads.

Pics would help, scope info too. How long is a piece of string? Here's a 85' LH BDL Blued w/ sights that is in great shape for comparison.... https://www.gunsinternational.com/guns-for-sale-online/rifles/remington-rifles-700/remington-700-lh-bdl-270-exc-cond-.cfm?gun_id=101085993 There's usually some wiggle room. Good seller too, never has junk (done business with him several times).

Dead children walking...everyone gets to pick their “last meal” before school starts! Deep fryer was busy: French fries for the daughter-thought for sure she was going pizza but glad she didn’t considering the heat. Hellfire steaks(heavy coating of dry mustard and then red hot to make a paste) for Mrs Crappy and boy #2 Panelle Sandwich (chick pea flour that is cooked, formed to loaf, sliced and fried) with fresh ricotta and shaved parm on semolina rolls..it’s a Brooklyn Sicilian thing from Joe’s in Ave U. That’s for me, grandma and Boy 1. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That'd be my thought too. Somebody trying to poison coyotes??

Loaded Steak nachos with NO LETTUCE! has green pepper, black olives, tomatoes, onion, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, restaurant made salsa. It was very good....seemed like it was missing something though lol hmmmm

Since this is never going to happen, I'd probably shop around and see if I could view some sex tapes first, and kick a few tires before I make a decision. Might as well make the most of this fantasy....

I like it rough.

No one name comes to mind for me. I ain't too picky as long as she's got a nice blower,lol

Just one choice? Can it be a small group?

Hit ladyO with a friend out of bald eagle today. Stayed inside hoping for some big stagers. Tough bite. Grabbed some littles and lost a decent one but was able to grab one major. Kids had a blast. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk

I got a cigar box of “old” coins that were my father in laws , he died 20 years ago. It seems such a task to go through them one by one . Maybe I’ll leave them to my kids, who won’t go through them either .

Pretty sure no one was stressing about killing a wall hanger.

$16 a box Daughters set for a while. These are the ones prior to renamed / re released and pattern better than the “new” ones.

During his speech, Cuomo accused Trump of violating the Constitution by giving Puerto Rico “a different level of care than Texas and Florida and other states” following Hurricane Maria last year. “We’re going to hold ‘King’ Trump to the Constitution of the United States, and the Constitution said equal protection under the law. Puerto Rico did not receive equal protection under the law,” Cuomo said.

Never saw those types of LEGO’s before

I almost reached for a barrel-aged stout, but this has been going down nicely of late.

The big difference is you say “we” I’m assuming that means you have others helping you drag? I don’t like hunting with others so most of the time I’m on my own. I am 30yrs old a little over 6ft and about 225lbs I would consider myself in pretty darn good shape but I’m man enough to admit that dragging a 180+ pound deer for anything over a couple miles isn’t something I’m ever going to do again. I have packed enough out to know that it’s much easier. Walking out with 80-100lbs of meat and a head and cape is so much nicer than dragging! That being said I still would much rather drag them because I enjoy having a whole deer hanging on the meat pole to admire until I cut it up. But sometimes that’s just not in the cards.
