I can’t believe Indiana isn’t mentioned. Pulled a 10 and a 12 point out of my front yard this year, and a doe in between that went 220#, biggest one I’ve ever bagged. No pine trees here, just big whitetails fed on corn and beans.

Course what I do isn’t even remotely called hunting, we call it harvesting. I just sit in the living room and when I see one worth shooting I step out the doorwall and let them have it.

.45/70 with 325 grain Hornady Leverevolution, not a deer has taken more than 5 steps with that combination so far.

That’s the way to do it! Great set-up! Monster Doe!

We had a very poor harvest this season, but we’ll be fine. We have Elk, Bear, Halibut (from Alaska this summer) Walleye and Northern Pike (from Northern WI this spring; couldn’t get into Canada, Eh!) and 1/4 beef; wouldn’t have any room for Venison had Beau got one. ;)
