    Flintlock squirrels

    Squirrel hunting with a flintlock is the ultimate rifleman's game. If there is a better way to spend an afternoon in the woods, I would sure like to hear about it. Thanks for the great photo. PJC

    Got my deer

    QUOTE "the sun felt good and I drifted off for a nap. Not sure how long I was napping but I woke up about 1:30 and looked to my left, through the trees I was nestled in. There were two does appx 20 yard away." I always make it a habit to shoot any deer that wakes me up from a good nap. Look...

    One more time with the 40...

    Hint. 70 gr of FFFG will provide the muscle you need to do the job. 40 cal for a white tail is a definite handicap. It will do the job but you have to do yours. Why further handicap yourself with what might be considered a reduced load for big game. Why risk the success of a lot of effort on a...

    Big doe

    Well Done! I am sure your lost friend is proud of your accomplishment. It is the best way to share a hunt with him. It is too bad for us that the batteries died on the camera. I am sure that you will not need a photo to remember any of it. PJC

    Kentucky Doe.

    I phone when I get something so she knows I am going to be late. One time I phoned and she said the police called and they are looking for you. I guess because I was late getting out of the woods the property owner was worried that I was hurt. Had some splaining to do to the police when I got...

    Kentucky Doe.

    I was lucky enough to harvest deer number 2 and finish out my Kentucky Hunting Season in a Zone 3 county. A nice big fat doe. About the same size as my spike buck. I took some darn nice photo"s with the cell phone too. That is where my luck ran out. While I was taking care of a few things after...

    Double Play

    Three deer and a coyote is a great weekend. I generally go for double lung shots. Just habit from bow hunting. I find they will go about the same distance. Taking a deer with a flintlock is just about the ultimate satisfaction a hunter can experience. Although Turkey and squirrel are real...

    First Flinter Whitetail

    Great story and project. I suggest that when you are enjoying some of that venison, that you prop the gun up in the corner to admire as you enjoy your well earned meal. PJC

    Kentucky Whitetail

    A kentucky white tail. Spike buck. Shot with a 45 cal, 80gr FFFG and PRB. He decided to fall part way down a steep ravine and made for a very difficult night. BUT we got him home and have sufficiently recovered from the ordeal to go after a doe to finish out my limit. If not this week, There is...

    A first for the 16 bore

    It is a good idea to have the gun nearby the table when enjoying the first hunk of venison. It just makes it taste better in the company of the gun that harvested the deer. PJC
