Nice pics fellas, don't stop. Pab1 I know what you are talking about regarding MLs and dry woods. I'm hoping that the Sierras are cool and damp by the time we get up there the latter part of Oct. Fall's around the corner and the next 2 days are predicted to reach into 100-degree weather here in the Central Valley though.

I've got to give elk hunting a try sometime Gregory. In the meantime I'm looking to get a gun like Britsmoothy's (either an Enfield or Zouave in .58) to keep my .50 TC Hawken caplock company. Good luck to all.

It is a Parker hale Enfield p61 musketoon in 58 smoothbore! The longest rabbit it has taken is 60steps. It is still lookin' for deer! Handy on pheasant from a blind with 1oz of shot :thumbsup:

Cracking elk story.

God bless :thumbsup:

Opening weekend of Washington State Muzzle Loaders Season (9-24-11).... Got to the woods late this morning,around 7ish....walked down an old overgrown logging road about .5 mile. Followed another trail about 50yrd. Heard some crashing noise off to my left. 2 Blacktail deer jumped up, one went left..the other right. The right one stopped in the middle of the trail I was on.. stopped to look at me... I calmly brought up my flintlock rifle, slowly set the sights just behind his front shoulder, and gently touched her off. Clean shot, both lungs.. found him laying along the trail. Feild dressed, loaded, and back home by 9. And that's how I got my very fist deer....

...just spent 10 days in sw montana looking for fish and elk ... plenty of fish but neither heard or saw any elk... saw numerous bull and cow moose, plenty of antelope, and too many to count deer...

 

[hoochiepapa]

No deer license?

 

[plumdog]

[russecv58]

no game pics yet, but I'm praying to cross paths with the bear that did this. that's my GPR leaning against the tree for size reference. its my first try at bear hunting so wish me luck. :grin:

 

[Skylinewatcher]

He is a big one. You gonna wrestle him? :haha:

 

[russecv58]

yeah, by the size of the tracks it looks to be a good one, compared to alot of other tracks that i've seen. i really dont fancy the idea of wrestling with him, but as was once said "with one shot between me and perdition" i just may have to :grin:
