Me and my dad have been hunting the Redlands WMA public land the last few years (we poor and cant afford a lease/property) and havent got anything. but last week my dad got a 5 point, i got a doe a couple days later, and finally today i got this 8pt. when it rains it pours i guess haha. had to...
saw a brute of a 8 pointer on my way home from work tonight.....was really considering popping him but there was a few cars around and he was in someones front yard haha. so that wouldnt have worked to well lol.
was out this morning till noon, just me and the squirrels lol. absolutely beautiful morning in the woods though.
i did have a gigantic red fox squirrel with white ears and nose decide to come play next to me and almost hop in my lap (ground hunter) lol. i was debating shooting him for the...
i remember when i was a kid my dad shooting a very nice 8 pointer with a 30-30 core lock.....it knocked him down and he ran off....we found 2 drops of blood and nver found him. ive never touched a core lock since lol.
same. ill be hunting public this wednesday. its what i save my pto for haha. im back to public as im single again and dont have the perks of my exes hunting property anymore :(
weekends CAN be a crapshoot though. ive gone sometimes and been the only there....other times everyone and there...
yeppers, its my baby. Lefty .308 Ruger Gunstite Scout Stainless. Leupold VXR 2-7, Wilson Combat 3 prong flash hider, Oversized bolt knob from Nate at Ft. Daniels and custom paracord sling from a member here i believe it was Jclem.
Edited: Oh and the XS full rail on top. forgot about that lol.
my personal preference is .308. Its a common enough round so if you forget your bullets when you get to the deer property (yep, happened to me and i know im not the only one lol) you can run to wal-mart for them (although covid they arent 24hrs right now so that would suck). and it will kill any...
the only peice of clothing advise i would give is get a good pair of waterproof boots and socks. nothing sucks more that sitting in the woods with wet feet.
ive seen venison roasts at Sprouts before. they had a freezer just for "game meats". had the buffalo in with it and a few others i cant remember. havent been to a sprouts in awhile though, so no clue if they still do it or was a one off thing though. dont remember price, but probably expensive lol.
they few years i hunted down at the redlands i only hunted where only 1 or 2 vehicles could easily park at, had my orange vest AND a orange hat, and made sure to get there hella early to get to my spots i like before anyone else.
never had a shot at me or rifle pointed at me, if i did, i...
