Well thanks to Dave and his family who are putting up with me, I'm in IA on a hunting trip. Will be here until the 9 Dec. and my last hunting day is this coming Weds. First day out was Sat. and we so a lot of deer, but really no shooter. Dave did take a great big doe at 125 yrds, with a Scout V2 with brake,using a 302 Bomb. Yesterday was the second day, and around 4:30 I finally seen a buck come out into the corn field. He was at 270 yrds walking across my front. I watch him for a few minutes and he finally stop, and I took a good look at him, and I wish I could have seen the right side a bit better, but he is still a great one to me. I dialed my CDS dial to 250, and put the cross hairs shoulder high, I pulled the trigger and down it went, never took a step. Load was 90 gr. 3031, no booster, and 302 Bomb at 2900 fps. Any way it would have been a ten pointer but had two broken ones on the right side. Regardless I;m still happy. The bullet exited where you see on the pic, it destroy the left shoulder. Thanks to Dave and his family for having me over. Thanks Buddy.  |

I've been hunting near Onawa IA. I will be there Friday. My uncle used to farm public ground in Turin IA. There are some giant deer around there but you have to work for them. How long you guys going to be around? |
