Ladies and gentlemen, I thought it would be neat to put all of this year's game in one photo gallery -- something we could do each year. Dear season is well on its way in many states and a number of you have already tagged out. Let's see if we can't put all of our handgun hunted animals of 2012 right here.
cmnash and Pink TC recently posted up some trophies as well as others, let's see 'em here!

So the easy way to do this is to include the keyword 2012 when you submit your photo. You'll need to do this on the 2nd page of the submission process because there is a bug whereas the keywords entered on the first page don't get carried over. If you've already submitted a 2012 photo go to the page showing the full-sized version and click edit. You can add the 2012 keyword and save the change. The photos keyworded as 2012 can be seen here: http://www.handgunhunt.com/photo_viewer.php?keywords=2012

Shot this antelope in Wyoming at 233 yards with a 30-30 Contender. I was asked to shoot a mature animal by the landowner. This doe was dry and was over 6 years old so I am quite proud of her.

I have a photobucket account and it is a pretty easy process. I would suggest opening an account -- uploading photos is easy enough for even me to do it -- LOL!

The process to post a photo in the forum is the same regardless of whether you choose photobucket or upload to the bragging board and others can view your images here if you use the bragging board.

i figured it out! LOL Here is my 2012 MN black bear boar. I didn't weigh him but I am guessing him at 200-250ish pounds

Bears are one of those species that I think you could easily get hooked on hunting. Then again I get hooked on hunting certain animals on a regular basis anyway. Nice bear BBW

Thanks Gary! I have to agree with you, This was my fourth year hunting them, and the first time running my own baits and it was a blast! tons of trail cam pics and excitement every time you go to place bait and see the logs moved.(I am not going to count the first year because I had no idea what I was doing!) I will definitely be going after bears for as long as I have the chance too.
Despite what some people think, they are really good eating too!

Whit Is that the max in the first pic? Only chance I've had this year to get out was at the beginning of the year. Have a hunt planned next week though. We'll see how it goes....

Hey Whit. given shot placement and caliber on your hog, I'm betting he didn't last very long following the fireball from your sixgun
Went and worked the 475 out yesterday and hope that I have a chance to use it next week. If not, I'm taking the Sharps so I won't be completely cheating, its a classic

I've enjoyed your photos ladies and gentlemen. It's good to see all of this handgunning success! Here are a couple of North GA hogs I took recently with my S&W 44 Mag revolver and my 209 X 50 Contender: I hope to have a buck to post in the upcoming weeks. Good luck to all this season! Edited to add my North GA buck taken with my 6.5" 629 Classic:

SON OF A GUN!! My hunting season, for big game, doesn't start till November 3. This thread is giving me one heck of an itchy trigger finger!!! All I can go shoot right now is small game and paper. Been doing a LOT of paper punching with the 460 at 200 yards. Groups are now acceptable for hunting!!
These pics are awesome guys! Congrats to all those who have taken something this year, and to those of us who have not, well, OUR TIME IS COMING!!!
A lot of people are like a slinky: Not much fun till you push them down the stairs!

Some summertime pursuits... Like Darrell, hoping to add some bone to the Bragging Board soon - but a big ole doe will do just fine!
