Well deer season was over for me last weekend. No big bucks to hang on the wall, but a productive season.
Today I took my rifle out of the case, took the stock off, cleaned and oiled everything, put it back together and put it back in the safe till I go hog or maybe turkey hunting. I counted out the shells in my hunting pouch and took note.
There were three empty slots, one for each kill.
It was almost as satifying as a cup of coffee on a cold morning. I guess only a hunter can appreciate it.
Shoot straight and always carry a 7mm Remington Magnum.

Yeah, my dad did a little better than I did with his 7mag. 4 shells, 5 dead deer. Sounds impossible, but it's the second time he's done it. Oh, and all of his deer were shot with either head or neck shots. And he wears bifocals!

I haven't stored mine away just yet. I have a hog hunt with TCH next month, so the bow and 7mag getting ready to go  The following month we have the forum ram/hog hunt  Somewhere in between I am going to take a Javi with a bow, out at the ranch. I already have a GTG for varmits, sometime this summer  So I think all my guns will have some sort of year round use.

Watch those javi's, mean mean mean! Suggest tree/ tripod stand and a good handgun just in case.
