The rut is deffinately heating up!
« on: October 27, 2012, 06:24:07 PM »
The rut is deffinately heating up! I found this guy about three hours into my hunt this morning hot on a does tail. I shot him twice with my .357. Two almost perfect shots. Followed the blood trail and found him still following the same doe. Finally she ran off and he finally died.

Nice buck! So why did you choose to use a handgun? Just for the challenge, or were you in a firearm restricted area?

that's a nice big 2 :tup:  Are those two holes the exit wounds? or were you using hollow points? :o

bobcat: it was a firearms restricted area so i chose the had cannon over the shotgun its more fun.

singleshot: those were the entrance holes and they were not hollow points but they were the 180 gr. Heavy .357 Magnum Buffalo Bore these are some awesome rounds for hunting with a .357

Nice job!  I was trying to bump and gun with a .44 today just to have something different then sitting in the rain all day.  I'm so jealous.
