It was a very busy fall and winter for me with home projects, and work, and all the daily trappings we wish we could avoid or remove from our lives! Before I knew it my favorite season to be out was almost over and I had yet to even tip over a powder measure. :shake:
I buckled down and was determined to get out Saturday for the last day of our late flintlock only season. Snow in the forecast and visions of slipping along in those quiet woods made me put a few other things aside to get a few hours to myself.
I was rewarded with a nice fat doe for my efforts and now I have the image of that perfect deer in a snow covered backdrop to keep me going toward hopefully a less hectic 2017 season.
60 ish yard slightly quartering to shot from the .54 and the prb did the trick.
The rifle is cleaned up, backstraps pulled ,and feeling satisfied!
