I know that there are several lurkers here that have already bought a handgun to hunt with and been practicing with it. I also know that some of the same are still afraid to take the plunge and just carry the handgun. If you have practiced enough to make a clean shot with in your comfort zone just go for it. Don't worry about trophy size or if it's a buck or doe. The main thing is break the ice. You have the best cheering section in the world. Just do it!
