well i havent posted alot over the past year but i am constantly lurking and enjoying all the post! our opening gun season came saturday morning and of course i woke up late:) having a wild 6 yr. old and a 17 month old makes sleeping in very easy! but nonetheless, i jumped up and got dressed, grabbed my GP and headed out for a short 3 mile drive to the farm. as i got out of my jeep i decided to just do some walking rather than head to my stand. i got in the woods and within 10 minutes of creeping thru the creek bottom i heard the sound of what is almost always a squirrel milling around....i look over for the source of the sound and to my suprise its a deer!! i immediately steady my gun on the side of an oak tree and squeeze off a shot. the deer jumped and stopped behind a tree. i wait and wait with my gun ready to fire a second shot. then after what seemed like forever he began wobbling and fell!!! i ran over and thanked the Lord for some meat for the freezer and just admired another handgun trophy:)

btw- as far as the details....the load used was a federal 158gr. jsp and the shot was 48yrds. i must say that im really like the hiviz front sight i recently put on the GP also...worked great!

i have to add these pics as well. my 2 lil buddies were so proud of the deer:) love these lil guys!

Fantastic bmbailes! Congratulations on a great iron-sighted handgun trophy!

congrats!....on the deer AND the youngins. i can remember mine being that small and they do like to get a pic with daddys kill....lol.

yeah my oldest is to the point he loves helping dress the deer! since he gets to use his own knife:)

Nice to see someone else that hunts with the .357. I have had a GP100 for the last 20 years and they are great guns. I live in the mountains of Eastern Oregon and have quite a few interactions with bears and mt. lions my 4" GP100 is a pretty constant companion.

Good shooting..

Cool!!!!!

Congrats! Watch them little fellers; they'll grow up and take your guns from ya.

nice shooting!
