  1. To all you muzzle loaders, I have a Thompson 50 cal percussion Hawkins, it has a double trigger. Bought in the 1970's, never been fired. What gear do I need to get started? After listening to all the fun and success stories I feel it's time to fire up my Hawkins. Any info would be appreciated. Dave
  2. Is the guide fee based on so many days? Did you shoot a bull ?
  3. Congrats. better late than never.
  4. I have a Marlin 39A lever action for about 35 years. Don't use it that much, but it is excellent when ever I have used it. Don't know what they go for though.
  5. Antler if you get a tag, get a Moose, hire a guide etc. What would be a ballpark figure for the total amount you can expect to pay.Dave
  6. One of those hunts you will not forget. Congrats

    Joe, that's a stretch even for you don't you think. Why don't we take it one step further to insure our safety and just ban everything. Then we would all be safe, no guns, no hunting etc. How idiotic does that sound. We are responsible for our own safety, an common sense don't you think.
  11. We have a hunting club that borders our camp. The original owned sold the land to the new club and had logging rights for 5 years. So for the past two years it has been logger all through the year. Last year we only shot one buck between12 guys. This year with all the logging activity there are more does and bucks roaming our property. This year we shot 4 bucks and one doe. I think this was a result of the logging and the deer had food all through the winter. The guys in our camp don't shoot does but I will on occasion.

    Seriously

    I think that anyone who hunts on state land should wear BO, it's for their protection. You never know who you will run across in the woods these days. I hunt private property and wear camo going to and from my stand. But if I still hunt I always wear some BO , hat and vest. Also have those Highly reflective Yellow vests too.

  14. Your nickname isn't Eddie four fingers is it?
  15. John, enjoy every moment they grow up so fast. God Bless
  16. Me too have 6 ladder stands and leave them up. But the critters like to chew up the seats. I have a few stadium seats that I bring to the stand if one is all chewed up.
  17. John, best you you and the family. Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Just became a Grandfather on the 21st, a 8 pound 6 ounce baby girl, mother had a c section. Still don't know if she will be released for Christmas or not. But all is good.Dave
  18. Merry Christmas to all and have a Happy and Healthy New Year. I wish we all have good health so we can hunt again next year, and share our stories right here on this site. Dave

    half way done

    That mount must have set you back a few bucks. Nice mount.
  20. Congrats, getting jealous hearing all the the success the ML guys and Gals are having. Seems like I cut my season short not MLing, Think I will buy a ML in the off season to extend my season next year. Great job filling all those tags while we were watching tv, but not next year will be out there with you. Dave
  21. At 1:01 pm today I became a grandfather for the first time. A beautiful baby Girl 8 pounds 6 ounces. Mother and baby doing fine, had a c section. That is my gift from Santa, Life is good. Merry Christmas to all. PS.. She will be a future hunter,I HOPE Dave
  22. Saw the same show. As long as the bucks have the sent of a doe in heat they keep their antlers, well into the second rut.
