well on saturday morning i connected with my first deer ever ;D and i t was a decent 8 that i had been watching the last few weeks off bow season but he never got close. He showed up at 8:30 saturday morning like he has every other time in the same spot and gave me a 100 to 125yrd broadside shot and i dropped him pretty much where he stood. i have only hunt muzzleloader last year and all of this year and i has all been on public land at salamonie res. i think i'm hooked for life now. i have pic but don't know how to post them. if someone could post them for me it would be apprecaited sorry the tongue i sticking out but when i got him home i couldn't get it back in i99.photobucket.com/albums/l303/simpso1922/deer3.jpg[/IMG]

Congrats! You HAVE to get it mounted, it's your first one. If you don't have the money now, roll up the cape, bag it and freeze it until you do. You won't be sorry.

The best part about it is that you get to relive it with mashed potatoes throughout the winter.
