  1. So sorry for your loss, we should all be so fortunate to live such a healthy long life and go so peacefully. My prayers are with you and your family.
  2. Never had an issue, I use 3 pellets of the 777. Once my ML is loaded and after each hunt it never comes indoors, always sleeps in the car or barn. Only comes in if the round was spent. Another key is to thouroughly clean the ML at seasons end, i take out the breach plug and plop it in a cup with a cleaning solvent and set it aside. Once the entire ML is cleaned then ill go back and meticulously clean the breach plug. I also take a fine sewing needle and pass it or pop it threw the breach plug hole to ensure theres no blockage. Pass the solvent thru the beach plug hole to ensure the liquid passes threw freely. Another thing before you put in your first load of the season, is to swab the barrel of any excess oils and to just shoot off one cap (no powder or bullet), just the primer.
  3. Once again another great year spent with family and in the process was able to put 4 deer in the freezer. Time spent with my elderly parents was priceless. I cherish everytime im able to get out to hunt and this season did not disappoint.
  4. What happened to the good ole days when i was 10 (many moons ago) and i would sit in knee deep snow overlooking a field and was so cold my dad had to light a fire for me. Till this day i never forgot that day, waited a few hours and a doe came out into the field running, the snow was up to the does belly. He missed that running shot. That was 37 years ago and i remember it like it was yesterday. What did that one day teach me? Patience, dedication, persistance and you just never know when things can happen. That one lesson alone has made me a very successful deer hunnter, i dont give up!!! What kind of lesson or message do you think these pens send to a kid or even an adult just starting out? Sorry, ill take the same approach with my kids that my dad took with me. Im not into this instant gratification era.
  5. The best money i ever spent (well my wife paid, early xmas gift) were the purchase of those Baffin boots. I hunted in 19 degree weather this past weekend and all i had on my feet were a thin pair of dress socks and those boots. They were not only warm but very comfortable, simply amazing. Its amazing that when your feet are extremely warm and you dress correctly ( lots of layers), how much more enjoyable /tolerable your time is on stand. I will continue to use my rubber boots in the early season and the Baffins will definitely be my go to late season/ cold weather boot.
  6. Unfortunately cant get anymore pics., my dad tossed the bones.
  7. Have to see what my dad did with them.
  8. If thats the case, that tells you how much i paid attention to their teeth...lol
  9. Wow, yeah i wasnt sure how much those missing teeth may have on determining her age. Shes a huge doe, but on top of that i found it odd that her front teeth were missing. Was just hoping those with alot of aging experience can use these pics and give me an estimate.
  10. Shot a big doe yesterday. Can anyone put an age on her based on these teeth pics? She had no upper front teeth.
  11. Two does down with the muzzy, one yesterday and one today. Snuck up on four bedded doe this morning but opted to pass, was hunting a huge swamp and the drag would have been a PITA. Glad i waited to shoot one on my property for the afternnoon sit, 4 does came in to one of my apple trees thats still holding fruit, shot the largest. Shes a huge girl and died only 75 yards from the road, glad for that because she is heavy.
  12. 4 does came in running straight to an Apple tree thats still holding fruit, shot biggest with the TC ML. Pretty huge doe.
  13. Like shooting deer tied up in a barn. Not my cup of tea.
  14. Give me everything in this store thats under a buck.
  15. Yep been receiving those very same calls. I give the phone to my 13 year old, he loves toying with them. Bunch of scams thats all they are. I must have gotten that call a dozen times over the last year.
  16. What do we do now with this POS? Now that we got most of the info. we need from this low life, whats next put him up in jail with a roof over his head, free meals and a lifetime of TV. Gotta love the american way. Im sorry but for people like this that are blatantly caught doing these acts of terror, there has to be another means to confine or do away with him other then wasting tax payers money. Maybe do what the bangladeshi people would do, stone him.
