Nice little minni hunt, I did not see any mention of the outfit used it is always good to toss that info in, these little pieces of hunting history are a great way to share the experience from coast to coast.

Thanks for all the kind responses. My son, Joe, used a 50 cal. Traditions Hawken Woodsman loaded with 90 grs of 777 FF and I believe he used a sabot. Joe and 4 of his buddies are all ways taking turnes filming each others hunts but this hunt he was alone. One of the things I have all ways stressed to Joe about guns other than saftey is that you can never own too many guns. Joe started hunting sparrows at the age of 5 with a bb gun and has fallen in love with hunting ever sense. I guess if your going to be addicted to something then what better thing than hunting. Again thanks and this is a really good site, glad I found it.

Very cool, grats. :thumbsup:

Hi bucktailes,

that is a pretty good rifle. I have the modern form (Deerhunter) also in .50. With its 1 in 48'' twist it shoots all kind of bullets with good accuracy. I guessed he used a sub because no smoke cloud to recognize. Again a clean kill. Didn't expect that the doe would fall like a steel target :thumbsup:

Congratulations on the doe....now, where is the hunter orange that is required by law for hunting deer in Michigan? :nono:

 

[wirehairman]

You have me deepest respect for introducing your son to the sport and obviously installing a love for it. :hatsoff:

 

[bucktails]

16gauge, thats a fare question. He dose wear orange when he hunts. When he was in front of the camera he wanted to be wearing the hat that has his and his buddies logo on it. GTO (Go Time Outdoors)
