    You can’t tell age from that photo. They check the processors then hand out tickets to those who fail to report also.

    Going out pheasant hunting with my buddy and his dog soon.

    My dad has hunted his whole life, I showed 0 interest till I was 18 and a light switched.
  4. Hock3y24
    That’s why I shoot 95% of my deer with bow, so I can gun hunt and give my dad my best spots for gun when we go together.

    my gun buck before he got all broken up.

    with a 16" barrel (using the Grendel) your looking at around 2400 fps, the Creedmore is about 400-500 fps hotter with a regular length barrel. You can use the Grendel in a standard Ar-15 platform, the creedmore needs an ar-10 platform. Think of the Grendel as a 6.5 creedmore short.

    either no nuts or damaged nuts i bet.

    put it behind that shoulder and you’ll be good. Sure is nice to carry that light gun tho.

    6.5 Grendel is NOT a shoulder shooting round. Especially in a 16” barrel. I had two quarter size holes in both sides of chest cavity.

    I used a 123 grain hornaday black eld-m and had phenomenal results at 200 yards. I recovered my bullet after it smashed the opposite leg bone and got caught in the hide. What’s your barrel length? Mines 16”

    Next county over from me, first I’ve heard of it.
  12. Hock3y24
    What round did you use? My 6.5 Grendel flattened a 4.5 year old Buck. With the velocity out of the creedmore I’d use a bonded bullet though. I’ve seen deer flattened with hornaday precision hunter creedmore rounds.

    No I leave my 4 roasts, backstraps in 6 sections. Cut steaks, and then either stew, speidies or ground meat. You can always cut steaks out of roasts or backstraps when you pull them out and thaw. Neck meat is for the crock pot.

    All you need is a tree branch, sharp knife, table and vacuum sealer. I’ve done 9 deer between mine and my friends this year, they don’t take more than 1.5 hours from hanging to bagged. Grind the meat the next day but that optional as I can just make stew meat with it. And any weather under 40 you can keep them hanging. I do have a 4x4 across my garage rafters, with a boat rope winch attached to the wall and a pulley up top.

    Numbers up here, everyone I know has gotten at least a buck.
  16. Hock3y24
    Every processor is just like that one around here, I cut my neighbors buck up for him last night cause he couldn’t find one.
  17. Hock3y24
    Congrats to everyone who got one, great buck Grampy!
  18. Hock3y24
    Keep hunting, best way to learn is to make mistakes. You’ll get one.

    Could be anything, my bucks a few years back had it on his brisket. Taxidermist said it’s from so many ticks they rub it on hard objects it actually shaved down the hair thin.
  20. Hock3y24
    Most all butchers here had to stop taking deer this weekend! Never heard of that ever
  21. Hock3y24
    I think my NY season is just gonna consist of hunting when my nephew or dad wants to the rest of year, I only have a dmp left. Can’t wait for pa rifle.
  22. Hock3y24
    Depends, my dad dropped his buck at 7:30 and I was ready to leave so I got down, he said he wanted to sit longer and dragged the buck to his stand, so we climbed back up and I shot my buck 2 hours later. Depends on mood, and if I have more tags.
  23. Hock3y24
    Rut is in full swing in 7s, buck chasing doe in road yesterday, my buck had a doe locked down watched him watch her for over an hour.
  24. Hock3y24
    My buck was defiantly locking down his doe, dads buck was cruising looking for a date. They should be leaving these does anytime though
  25. Hock3y24
    It says that for liability reasons I bet.
