Steve in Pa,, Congrats on the blackie !! I carried my SBH Hunter in .45Colt Sat in Westmoreland Co. Changed my mind Fri night while packing. Had originally planned on carrying Encore 45-70. There was some action close by, but weather moved in taking temps from 68deg.s to 32 & winds that brought snow white out conditions. Watched front move in from Ohio into Pittsburgh on my phone. Preparing to add another layer of clothes (after retrieving my hat for the second time!)when brother texted me that he was heading to the truck !Felt like a solid course of action as the sloping tree I chose for a seat had ground moving from roots beside me ! W/ blizzard approaching I made it to truck just as hard rain hit. Just a few min.s of rain then sleet came ,followed by horizontal snow that socked us in for about half an hour. When a slight break came we started for low lands. I may give it another try w/ Dad ,Bro' inlaw & nephew on Tue.s in Cameron Co. Congrats again, good luck in deer season, contBB
