The Hunting Thread...

As I said... I'm still close with them, but there was a stretch from 2006 to around 2010 where every damn time, it was, "Really, we mean it, what do you want? Don't worry, we get it to you."

How many casings do you have? Also, what will you do when those you have can no longer be reloaded?

I can either neck down 30-06 or neck open 25-06 brass.

On the bucket list. These hunts usually take some time. But check out this monster:

Former NFL Player Kills MASSIVE Mountain Lion In Colorado

Newly retired NFL player Derek Wolfe amazed many of his Instagram followers when he posted a photo of a massive mountain lion he had killed in a rural Colorado town. Wolfe stated before he killed the mountain lion, he heard from the locals that the big cat killed two dogs and was even spotted...

There is a bison hunt raffle on Kodiak, Alaska each year. Here is the flier for last year's hunt. I wasn't able to access the one for this year thanks to our wonderful government filters... You can probably find it if you google "bison hunt raffle kodiak alaska 2023" though.

HS friend posted this on FB. He’s a big hunter but I think he’s doing it wrong. Ouch.

“Heard you got one! What did you use? 30-06? .270? .308?”

”Nah, 3.0 Liter Inline 6. But I got him with the first shot!”

No, he's doing it right. He's just using the wrong caliber... Best to use a 1980 Chevy K10, 350 cid with 4-bolt main... You're welcome...

I’ve seen Matt Dillon make that shot and then turn around and finish his beer at the Longbranch.

Bridgette Watkins, 43, of Summit, AR who allegedly took fawn’s into her home and raised the deer with the intentions of training them to attack hunters was taken into custody Friday.
At the time of the arrest Watkins was in possession of several grams of meth, four deer and many stolen broken electronics.
Attention was drawn to Watkins when she began giving meth to the young deer and they were caught rummaging through people’s garages and back porches.
A homeowner followed one of the deer back to Watkins residence in an attempt to recover his property, he found himself face to face with Watkins wearing only a duct tape bikini disassembling his clock radio.
Charges pending further investigation.

I’ll be honest. Until I noticed the article beneath, my first thought was yeah definitely stick to using that yellow highlighter on face shots moving forward.

Anyway, she seems nice.

I didn't realize clock radios were still in use outside Alabama.

So, no luck this year on spring turkey. Just couldn't get out enough.

Drew nothing for moose, elk or deer, but drew tags for archery bear (either sex) and pronghorn (doe). Both seasons are the same (most of September). I don't think I will do much for the pronghorn...too much open space and only a couple waterholes to set up on in my area.

But I can get an either sex elk archery tag over the counter during bear season in the same areas, so I am going to spend September working from my camper (love me some Starlink) and stalking bear and elk.

I put in for three draw dove hunts over labor day weekend. Will see what gets drawn. Won't have much time for deer this year. Going to Italy for a week in October and doing a transatlantic cruise back to Tampa.
