I have spent more money on bows than I have on guns .......not really . But ..... the last bow I got cost me $30 worth of raffle tickets . Guys that are on another site that I frequent buy bows each year or every two years . At $600 to $900 plus more money for accessories , that's pretty pricy .

The folks selling the bows must have switched to crossbows ......... ;D ... ;D ... ;D

That dipwad has 3 of those and every once in a while he tears around the tract with one or two others .......

I have a NEF 25-06 Handi-Rifle but ........... if I were choosing over again , I would go with the 270 . It packs enough wallop to drop a deer and the ammunition is much less expensive .

I know those stumps wreak havoc on the Butt-Out tool !!! ??? .. ??? .. ???

Those pictures were from 2 years ago . The property owner knows them so I don't think they want to cause too many problems . They would either have to hacksaw the lock or cut the tree down to get the camera .

Do you wear Orange? If so why? If not Why not? :)
fasteddie replied to TheHunter's topic in General Hunting
I started deer hunting in 1965 . The color to wear then was bright red . That was 45 years ago . I don't remember when they 1st started the Orange bit ......... -
That sure looks like fun . Kinda reminds me of how some guys hunted deer on Gibsonville Road between Leicester and Perry . Back in the 60's , some clowns would ride down that old road and shoot deer from a car or truck . Plate numbers were turned in but as far as I know , nothing ever came of it . All I could think of is , damn , that had to be a heck of a loud noise inside the vehicle !

I havn't hunted in the Rifle areas . The thing about shotguns is usually on opening day there is a fair amount of hunters . With the 4-5 shoy volleys , you can pretty much tell which direction the deer are running . ??? .. ??? I usually take my 12 ga Winchester 1200 pump opening day and either the NEF Huntsman in-line or Contender 7-30 waters pistol the rest of gun season .

They had dropped their horns but I am pretty sure the front right one is a buck ........

He's gonna be nice when he grows up .

I have 3 Wildview cameras (one still in original box / packaging) . I don't care for the Wildview brand at all . They are "battery eaters" and one of them uses something like 14 "AA" batteries . I can never be sure they will take pics . Never had a problem with the Stealth Cams of the Moultrie I-40 . I set up the I-40 in the yard when we go on vacation .

The "Official" Where are you from, where do you hunt / fish thread.

Hey Zem , glad you saw the post and made it over here . -
I take a surgical glove and cut the fingers off . Then I put one of the cutoffs on a finger and roll it up so it looks like a condom for a midget . Slip it on the end of the muzzle loader and roll it down . It will keep dust / dirt / moisture out of the barrel . I have killed deer shooting with this on . IT works for me !

My 1st thought was , what's the big deal of leaving it in the string when drilling the hole larger . Then I thought , what if the bit stuck and wound the peep in the string . Holy crap , that could be a disaster ! ??? .. ??? .. ???

oops ! wrong thread ............
-
I ordered the Stealth Cam SC23IR . I figured for 50 bucks , it would be a nice gift .......... I hope it uses either C or D batteries !

I showed these to the property as I had no authority to do anything . He said he would talk to them as he knows these guys

Some Ontario deer

Great info . Thanks ! 8F & 8H are looking good .......

I don't know about "recommended" but I prefer the 777 loose powder . I know that when I push the ramrod down the barrel that it is tighht against the powder .... no air space . If I don't fire my in-line that day , the powder and bullet stay in . I tried different measures and found that 90 grains of 777 work best for me . I always wondered if the pellets fit loose in a barrel and if they would break down over a couple of days . I would guess there would be an air space if they aren't a tight fit .

Unless you have a friend or two that are really knowledgable about bowhunting , then go to a few pro shops and ask for advice . Get a feel as to who is trying to help versus trying to sell you something .

I have been waiting for this to arrive at the Custom Gun Shop in Walworth but I GOOGLED it last night and saw a lot of negative reviews . Reloaders claimed that the stuff gummed up their dies . Anyone use the Oneshot Case Lube Spray ?

Heck , that has to be almost in your own back yard . It usually falls on a weekend when other stuff is planned . Anxious to see what the date will be this year . Nothing to do with hunting but I like to hit the big Flea Market in East Avon about once a year .
