“...the elevated hunting cabin boasts a microwave, a small fridge stocked with beer and soft drinks...”
The fool needs to learn that alchohol and gunpowder don’t mix.
He should be ashamed.
With a name like that he should work for the TSA.
No mention of the feeding station, it seems to have been forgotten
It is, so why are you whining like a liberal?
“Beer and gunpowder don’t mix” You ain’t from around here are ya boy?
Gotta love the South.
“You aint from around here are ya boy?”
No, and that’s a good thing.
Look, I like my brews as much as the next guy - after the guns are put away. I wouldn’t hunt with him.
If you tolerate drinking while hunting, IMHO you are significantly increasing the risk of a tragedy.
I think it’s a separate structure.
But really, one day... I was wearing slip-on shoes one day, out at a friends place where I'd went to stay and hunt for a day or two. I wasn't quite in the hunting mode at the time, and while taking a very short stroll outside, was surprised to see a buck across a draw, approx 200 yrds away, and just slightly uphill. Moving slowly, I got out of sight, then fetched a rifle, came back, and saw the buck hadn't gone very far.
Got that one right through the heart, which is where I was aiming. 7mmMag is a bit much gun for Coastal Blacktail, but it is pretty flat. Slightly uphill, about 10-15 degrees, it's even "flatter", in a way.
That one was fairly large for a Blacktail, although the horns were a bit runty. I've gotten more than a few with larger racks & thicker tines, but cannot remember a heavier bodied forked horn. The meat was excellent, even though it wasn't next to alfalfa fields, or other cultivated lands.
“Hardly seems sporting.”
It’s a hell of a lot more sporting than driving to the grocery to buy your meat.
Good for him. He’s spending his money the way he wants to spend it, as it should be. More power to him.
To be honest, I’m kind of jealous. That’s a happenin’ shack.
Well, when you have an automatic feeder set up that dispenses Purina deer chow at regular daily times, and you hang out in a pre-prepared deer stand up in a tree, and shoot the deer when they come for food, there's something a little odd about that style of "hunting" too.
More like a shooting gallery with live targets.
Camo ? In a palace like that ?
Puh-leeze...
If you go out this year, or already have, here’s hoping you success and a freezer full of venison or elk.
Do you bow hunt?
thank you
Hell....I wear camo to work.
I almost didn't see him with the camo. But what gets me is the really gay lighting around the top of the ceiling.
