Popular Post Quickfarms Posted November 23, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 23, 2019 BB guns? When do they graduate to 22's Did the older one get his tooth shot out with a bb or was the mallet used? A ball peen hammer works better than a mallet. In California that might be called child abuse or animal cruelty 1 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/59935-taking-back-our-neighborhood/#findComment-436492 Share on other sites More sharing options...

j hancock Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 You have got one hell of a posse for the hunt! Had a six point wander through the backyard at dusk two nights ago.

mowerman Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Personally I own a lot of guns but I’m not a hunter mainly because of the time involved and it seems a lot easier to just buy the shit already prepared in the supermarket I would like to try birds maybe after retirement.....best of luck to you all that are out there now...bobSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/59935-taking-back-our-neighborhood/#findComment-436544 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere Mack Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 That's a great pic. Christmas card worthy. lol Does hitting one with the truck count?

Mack Technician Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) Deer took him off the road. Extrication. DNR hired the Whitetail Czar, Dr. James Kroll, to help manage the herd. Back in 2012-13. They took his recommendations. It worked. Only issue now is avoiding them on the highway. Nearly no does harvested in the north half of the state for a couple years. That brought them back fast. When CWD (chronic wasting disease) is found automatic baiting ban on that tri-county footprint. Now anyone can use a crossbow. Women can wear Hot Pink instead of blaze orange. Kids can hunt at any age, but have a parent within arms reach. People got mad about Scott Walker pushing it through, but no accidents have happened involving kids. One person bought a licensed for a two year old in protest, lol, maybe to prove a point? Or maybe some good’ol boy gave Jr a .223 bullpup?

Those we're the sweetest little lightweight carry guns in the woods, or driving out brush. Now sky's the limit on how much you pay to buy one used, $800-$1,800.

General Ike Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Henry .45-70 or any old .45GOV is my rifle of choice and usually carry it for bear protection. Never hunted deer with it though, as there wouldn't be much left of the deer. Been many years since I tagged a deer, but .308 was my preferred tool. 1 Quote Ed Smith1957 B85F 1242 "The General Ike" Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/59935-taking-back-our-neighborhood/#findComment-436755 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjc transport Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 (edited) my reason for getting the 44 mag winchester was a bear hunt to maine. since they required a handgun of at least 357, i decided the S&W 44 mag i had would fit the bill. and then decided why have 2 different sizes of ammo? so i bought the 44 mag rifle.....then took a nasty fall and destroyed my left knee and hip, which ended any idea of hunting that year. and i never healed properly. so i pretty much stopped hunting because anything more than about 45 minutes standing/walking caused loss of feeling from hip down Edited November 27, 2019 by tjc transport fix typo Quote when you are up to your armpits in alligators, it is hard to remember you only came in to drain the swamp..
