Way to go Cull.
I took a buck with my rifle yesterday. Was letting my boy hunt with me. He couldn't get a shot and I wanted meat. Well, couldn't or wouldn't, I'm not too sure. He never cocked the hammer. Now, as soon as he can get a shot, I'll be back to bowhunting. He's making me proud though. If he doesn't have a shot, he doesn't cock the hammer. He keeps looking hard too. Doing good. Just a couple more years before he's ready for a legal weight longbow. Then he can go with me bowhunting.
I've got plans for a certain 10 pt that envolves a 530 grain POC with zwickey 2 blade head. Gonna get my boy a shot at something and then, I've got an appointment to keep. Meanwhile, does look out. I like to shoot my longgun too sometimes.
Dude, there's this nice 10 point coming to my corn. Saw him last week when I took Justin. Justin said he never saw the horns, but I did. There were about 4 different shots he could have taken on it too. But, he said he couldn't see him. Dang, that was the best buck I've seen on the place. On one hand, I'm glad Justin didn't get the shot (so I'll have a chance with my bow), on the other, I'm sorry. It would've been an awesome first deer. I'm guessing it probably would measure about 135 - 140".
Hopefully, next Saturday I'll be able to go back out with my bow. Right now, it's Justin's turn.
