2020 mule deer & Ruger Number One
Not a huge buck, but crippled up with foot & leg injuries as I am this year, this one will do. A single handloaded 160 grain Sierra Game King at 3050 fps from the 7mm Rem Mag did the job. Sadly I pulled the shot a few inches to the rear instead of tucking it right behind the shoulder as... -
Bear Season!
Washington's bear season starts August 1st, right around the corner! My son and I have done well on black bear here in Washington before and I hope to hunt pretty seriously for bear again this year. No baiting allowed. No hound hunting either here. So, it's "spot and stalk" for the most part... -
Sling as a shooting aid?

Protecting Your Bird Dog?
Hey guys - I know some of you have bird dogs for hunting upland game or ducks. How concerned are you about wild predators attacking your dog while hunting, and what do you do to prevent it? I hunt a lot of wild country, not much in farmland. Like yesterday, Mav was hunting off leash...- Guy

December Pheasants
My son and I took the dog and our shotguns for a little walk today. We found five roosters, but only brought home four. One got up at an odd angle, my son missed two shots, and he would have been in my line of fire, so I never even shouldered my shotgun. Good day though, we enjoyed! Here's the...- Guy
