Went out to check trail cams today with my little one. I brought the gun along just in case and was glad I did. He was asleep when I shot and never even woke up. I was amazed. Only takes a second for those who are still trying, don't give up.

What was your child's reaction when you pulled the trigger?

I don't understand how this is even remotely acceptable ? I might be jumping ahead of things but am I right in assuming the child had no ear protection? And even with ear protection, how close was the child to the muzzle ?? I don't care how big or small any deer is, if there's a potential to effect your child's hearing for the rest of his life, is it worth it? I hate that I sound like a liberal snowflake but I put myself in your shoes and can't imagine sending one with my infant strapped to my chest. Sorry to pee in your wheaties.

I agree with TreeGuy that seems unsafe at best 

I agree, if baby was even strapped to his back and even with earmuffs thats not good. No deer of anysize would be worth a shot with any child so close to the muzzle blast. I really do hope he had some ear protection for that infant.

I didn't want to raise this point, but I agree.  I understand infant ear drums are very sensitive.  I pray there was no damage, but would probably see a physician.

Well that’s just cool, how’d the little guy do with report of the rifle ? I assume you had protection on the little fellas ears .

I shot one doe in the head when it was bedded.  Lethal but I swore never to do that again.  For some reason (and its not logical) but I felt really bad afterwards.

It happens, we’re not stone cold killers. I have had shooters remorse before.

I did it once too. Never again though. Just my choice. Nothing wrong with it.

Yes yes and yes. He was on my back at the time with the muffs. He was sound asleep and had a cover over him. He jumped but didn't even wake up. Trust me when I say my kids come first! Like someone said no deer is worth it.

So good hear biggame!  Sorry if it sounded like we jumped to conclusions.  Congrats on a dandy!

      Broome county / Deposit ny
      By Francesco B
      Hello everyone I’m currently looking at a house in deposit ny I’ve been deer hunting for many year mainly in Columbia and Greene county never been to Broome county. Before anything I was just curious how is the hunting there ? I know there aren’t any antlered restrictions in Broome but are there monsters out there or is it mainly just small spike? If anyone from that county or knows about deposit and broome county would get back to me i would appreciate it. Hope everyone hunting today catch a big one thanks.

      What are the best steps carry a bow on your back?
      By Ainsley Ash
      The procedure below to carry the bow is detailed below:
      You have to use a cotton towel or something similar. You have to wrap it around the bowstring. Doing so ensures that it will not cause an injury with the bowstring coming in contact with your body. It will not be that sharp either. Once you cover the bowstring with the towel, you have to wear it like a sling. So that it will not fall away from your body. The best way to cover the bowstring is to use a large enough towel. You can wrap it around twice as well. When making a sling out of the cotton towel, you have to ensure that you tighten it to get a snug fit. In that case, it will not slip away. Consequently, it will remain in place. When using this technique to carry a bow on your back, it is essential to practice before going in the wilderness. Only when you can move briskly and without noise using the scanning mechanism should you go ahead with it. To remove the bow, you have to hold it at the bottom. After that, you have to slip it over your head as well as arm. Doing so ensures that you can remove it quickly. When trying to focus on a prey, you need to remove the bow quickly. The technique for removal that we have highlighted above can certainly help you do so.

      A Hunter's Obligation to Know the Rules
      By JDN2K
      Just want to relay an experience I had this weekend regarding hunting regulations and other hunters.
      I've had several  hunter's tell me last weekend(10/12/2020) that muzzleloader was open, it is not. I also had two other hunters last weekend confront me as to why my son was carrying around a rifle and hunting deer. I calmly explained the youth weekend and the rules around it. After that everything was cool and we continued our hunt.
      I know at the end of the day we're all trying to participate in a sport we love and maybe harvest some game. My thought is to just make sure you're up on your local hunting regulations. Not just so you are within the rules, but also so you can assert your right to be where you are, hunting the way you're hunting.
      I know when I have been operating outside of the regulations I have appreciated a person respectfully correcting my ignorance and I try to pay it forward by being informed and respectfully educating when required.
      Thanks for listening, off my SB...

      Bolt Action with Pistol Grip
      By Alfredo
      Hello,
      I am in the process of purchasing my first rifle to go hunting deer for the first time.  However, I have received contradicting information regarding the types of rifles that are legal.  Based on what I have read, it appears that I am able to use a bolt-action rifle with a pistol grip and a detachable magazine which holds 10 rounds.  However, I have been told that this is not the case. I can't seem to find where this is stated.  Can any one here provide me with some insight into this? I'd really appreciate it.
      Thanks in Advanced,
      Alfredo
