Your in depth description of the hunt had me on the edge of my easy chair. Keep up the captivating threads. I'm now a subscriber.


Hmm, no observation on the high end camo? Round here iffn you ain't got at least $5,000.00 invested in your deer before you leave the easy chair, you ain't no hunter. That's why I don't hunt anymore I reckon. Nice deer Savell, I didn't like or subscribe, but I did set my notifications.

Nice shooting, Savell!

Can you cut a buck like that with a fork, once cooked?

Nice hunt and story. I think next year I will follow your great lead and hunt with just lever guns! I will use something bigger than a 22mag!

Sure can tell they ain't no pumpkin patches around. Look at it's ribs sticking out !!! Deer feeding in food plots have more juice fly out on impact. He is a magnificent being nephew but like you he's little lean . Might have to throw some bacon grease in the pan


Oh yes we hang our deer like that as well let's the blood run out..

We also have also hung head up with a line

now it is a rope in some parts but at our camp it is always a line.

for years I would pull them down and raise them back up with the gambrel and skin and quarter

then one year I had 3 hanging and I was tired so I grabbed an orchard ladder out of the shed and skinned them the other direction , it cut moving time and effort down and worked fine


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.
