Mocha1545 Report post Posted October 31, 2014 Nice Buck Edge! Glad you got to get out after helping others out. Love that Rifle! Lots of character in them older guns. Spend enough years carrying and shooting the same gun you hit whatever you aim at. And Pop should kick your butt if you sold it! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edge Report post Posted October 31, 2014 Thanks, non typical, Mocha. Don't understand the snarky comments of others, wasn't after a "monster" or I wouldn't have shot this one with 2 days left in the hunt, but I certainly would have liked to have knocked down the first one I saw. He was bigger bodied, more meat to share with friends and family. I shot this one for my dad whom is too old to hunt anymore. he really enjoys the meat and it really hurts him to know he can't go afield any longer. Years ago I used to put him in the truck when I'd go hunting just so he could be near by. I'll take him some roasts and loin in a couple weeks. The venison should help him get over the trauma ma caused when she threw out that old freezer burned squirrel meat he was saving. lol 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mocha1545 Report post Posted October 31, 2014 Can't eat the horns. Glad your Pop is gonna get some good meat. Don't let him keep it in the freezer too long! I leave next week for my hunt. My Pops is still giving it a shot. He's 89 now. Cannot wait to get out there with him and my brother. I'll take the first one I can get cause I don't know if Dad will be able to stay too long. To me it's about making memories and hopefully filling the freezer. I do Love that rifle of your. I'll be taking down my Savage 99C. As old as I am and shoots pretty darn good. Did you take that 45 along with you? How does she shoot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WampusCat Report post Posted November 1, 2014 Awesome post! Thanks for sharing. There something be said for a rifle taking a spill into the Frisco and holding zero. I enjoyed the photos , especially that spike and rifle. I am used to carrying everything on my back. Those mules look like the only way to do it. Makes me think how far a guy could get back in the Blue. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
