I had the opportunity to hunt today, with my best friend. The same fella that took me 2 weeks ago. This has been a great few weeks for me, ending a 2 season slump. I doubled up on a pair of does this morning. They weren't monsters, but they are perfect grilling size. My buddy Mike was impressed with the shot. They were both about 75yds, but I had a good rest on the rail of my climbing stand.Some days its better to be lucky than good I believe. This blessing is unbelievable after 2 seasons with no deer in the freezer. I'm still using that same ol super blackhawk hunter. I am doing my best to get Mike to start taking his pistol as well.

Ok. So I am NOT a computer expert. One day, I'll figure out how to get pics on here right. There is a picture on the bragging board, but I cant master getting them swapped to the forum post. I would like to say thanks to my buddy Mike, without whom, I'd have about nowhere to hunt.

Fantastic! Congrats, boot! I like that iron you've got as well.
It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

Well done! I love shooting doubles with handguns.
