I just returned from my annual trip to to W.V. where my good friend the "wvhitman" hosts me on his farm for several days of deer hunting. Last year I came home empty but this year I was lucky enough to score on a nice 6 point buck first day at 124 yards and on a doe the second day at 237 yards. Both deer dropped in their tracks from my HSP 7saum shooting 160 grain Nosler Accubonds over a charge of H4831sc. Thanks to Doc I have another great memory! I do not use a photo hosting site so I am unable to post photos.

Congrats, Mike! Post your photos here - no need for a host site.
It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

WE've been doing this a while. He normally connects each year, but last year was really bad. Looks like it's bad for me now. Haven't seen horns since Mike left. Guess I used all my luck up on my 2 gobblers this year.
