| Hunting this season? | |

| I went dove hunting with my pals a while back. I shot nothing | |
| but drank a lot of beer that night. Still no place to hut deer. | |
| Maybe hogs this winter. | |
| How about you? | |
| I did catch a 31 lbs blue last night which interrupted my cigar | |
| time. But worth it. | |

| I went out about a dozen times and seen 14 bucks of which only 2 | |
| were mature bucks. A bunch of .5-2.5 year olds. The mature bucks | |
| never presented me with a good shot opportunity. I did shoot one | |
| of the 2.5 year old bucks with my Glock 20 at 21 yards. I will | |
| admit, it was getting warm and late morning, so I fell asleep in | |
| the stand. I woke up to the sound of steps behind me when I see | |
| this little 2.5 year old 8 point walking directly behind my | |
| tree. He walked right through my wind and didn't spook, but he | |
| knew something was up. I knew I wouldn't be able to get my rifle | |
| up and in position without spooking him, so i grabbed my Glock | |
| and aimed for his heart. | |
| I put a good shot on him, as he dropped, jumped up, ran through | |
| the fence and was dragging his front leg as he ran off into the | |
| woods out of my sight. I gave him a little time, got down and | |
| looked for blood. I couldn't find any. Not a single drop of | |
| blood for the 150 yards I seen him travel. I grid searched for a | |
| bit and still couldn't find blood. I thought, maybe I missed and | |
| he just dropped from being spooked and him dragging his leg was | |
| from running through the fence. I heard my buddy shoot on the | |
| other side of the hill early in the afternoon and the 4-wheeler | |
| fire up. I started to get hungry, so I headed back to the house | |
| to see what he got. I walked up and said, that looks exactly | |
| like the buck I shot at. He said, you hit him. He pulled the | |
| bullet right out of his heart. That buck survived for several | |
| hours with a 10 mm Sig Personal Defense Round embedded in his | |
| heart. Crazy tough. Anyways, he already tagged it, so it was | |
| his. | |
| He and I haven't seen a single mature doe all season, bow or | |
| rifle, which is freaking crazy as hell. Nothing but yearlings. | |
| I have caught a ton of crappie and bass. | |

| GF, you never located the deer? I guess no trace of blood. No | |
| meat. | |

| Yeah, I found him when my buddy shot him with the rifle several | |
| hours later. We found my bullet embedded in the buck's heart. He | |
| lived for several hours with a 10 mm bullet in his heart. | |

| Damn bro that is crazy! My uncle is in hospice, he was the best | |
| uncle an outdoorsy kid could have. He took me and my cousin bird | |
| hunting and fishing and he wants me to have his stainless SW | |
| Model 29 with an 8 inch barrel when he passes. Of course this is | |
| a .44 mag. He bought it in the 70s after seeing dirty harry. He | |
| has bad dementia, anyway it would make a helluva close up | |
| hunting pistol I reckon? | |
| I would give up all my guns just to have my uncle back for a | |
| year. | |
| He also took me deer hunting on my one and only trip. You might | |
| remember that story from WCBB. | |

| Badass pistol. I would shoot deer out to 50 yards with that | |
| thing all day long, supported of course. Haha. I am a pretty | |
| good shot with the larger revolvers, better than with a standard | |
| semi-automatic, but anything past 25 yards I would want to shoot | |
| off a tripod or rail to ensure I didn't put a bad shot on them. | |
| I haven't decided what my next pistol purchase will be, XVR .460 | |
| or Chiappa Rhino DS6 .357 in Nebula. They are about the same | |
| price. I want the last thing the deer thinks when they look up | |
| and see the Nebula pointed at them is, who the fuck invited | |
| Liberace out here. | |
