That's a good deal Okie Hunter! Congratulations to the hunter and you. Did you get any photos of him with his deer? I have done the same over the years. I got a few started in Muzzleloader hunter and shooting back in the 80's and they are still at it. Took a few kids and adults hunting while on a lease near Haywood, OK. They scored, maybe not on their first hunt but eventually. It is a thrill just teaching and helping them along on that journey.
In the last few year I have started a few down that path of Handgun Hunting and that is all they talk about when we get together or they call for some advice. A few were out of state antelope, or deer in Wyoming and Kansas. Still remember those days like yesterday. Ernie Bishop helped me along with a couple of friends after meeting him and some others in Casper, Wyoming for a antelope hunt with handguns for a week.
You keep on helping others and it will help our sport tremendously and make a warm place in your heart when you think about it.
I hope you got to put some of those muzzleloading bullets you got from me to use.
I loaded up the Ruger Old Army 44 Blackpowder revolver with some conicals but haven't had the chance to use it yet. Almost got to Monday evening but the doe was being pestered by a small buck and wouldn't stand for more than a second before she was off again.
