My wife finally put her foot down and said I had to stay home and clean the garage, closets, and all my crap as she put it ever so lightly. I tried to explain I was going to the range and then kayak fishing when it cooled off yesterday evening. LOL She's very understanding but she is trying to clean up for my son's birthday today.

Anyway while I was cleaning/moving stuff around LOL I had the outdoor channel on the TV. Low and behold Peterson's Hunting came on and it had 2 hangun whitetail deer huntds featured. Needless to say my motivation ground down real slow when that came on.

I just thought it was cool to see 30 m in of handgun hunting, not just a 5 min bleep.

I've got to go home early and finish my loading room.

She still loves me though. I guess the new encore will have to stay at work for another couple of days. (She takes inventory in the safe)

Last night they had a Caribou hunt up north with TC 30-06, Larry shot that one. Jim shot his with BP

Over the weekend they took 3 buffalo with 500 S&W

I've gotten to see a few handgun hunts here lately too . I can't remember what show it was, but I saw one on Men's Channel with three buffalo hunts using the 500 S&W which I thought was a very good show. Then I also got to see the Peterson's Hunting show on the Outdoor Channel where Doug Koening used the 460 to take a whitetail, and if I remember correctly it was at 216yds .

I think the 500 S&W and it's generous promotion by S&W has brought more attention to handgun hunting in general, so maybe there will be more handgun shows in the future.
