    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    Different type of hunting
    I've eaten bear , great stuff as for shooting them and wolves...
    I can't even shoot feral dogs
    Any other species no issue

    Ms say that call me now not only the other words , but apparently I'm a specieist... only hunt / eat some species
    I'm just turning soft in my old age

    Is that a mule deer btw

    In the last photo...what's that big 'lump' in the foreground?
    Fossil bone? War club? Remains of a Mammoth meal?
    Cheers, and welcome.

    Dinosaur bone. Femur. I grew up near the Alberta badlands and we always collected fossils. I gave it all to my son now. Photos of some dinosaur teeth. Upper Cretaceous.

    Welcome to the forum mate. I like your rifles too - full wood always seems to catch my attention.

    There are a lot of coyotes and every one that you shoot means another two or three deer will survive the winter. We no longer bother to skin the coyotes. Fur prices are now so low that it's not worth the bother.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
