I found this funny Deer Hunting video on YouTube. If you watch where the bullets are impacting you can tell that they shooter is looking at the Bucks antlers, not concentrating on where his crosshairs are.
Either that, or he didn’t sight in his Deer rifle. Could be a case of a Magnum owner having someone else sight in his rifle because he’s afraid of the recoil. Regardless, this funny video demonstrates the need for practice with your Deer rifle!

Well, another Oklahoma Primitive Firearms season has come and gone. Ironic that Oklahoma calls it’s blackpowder season “Primitive Firearms” with most everyone using modern inline muzzleloaders!
Going into this Season, many of my friends thought it would be a tough hunt. The Full Moon was on Oct. 26th. As if that wasn’t bad enough, there was an historic bumper crop of Red Oak acorns due to a wet Summer. I’ve never seen so many acorns in our hunting area!

The best way I can sum up the new Bass Pro Store in Pearland Texas is; A Lot of Fluff, Little Substance.
I’ve looked forward to this store opening ever since Bass Pro announced they were going to build it. Currently, the nearest Bass Pro Store to me is in Katy Texas. It’s about an hour and half, sometimes two to get to the Katy store. You have to drive through Houston stop and go traffic, navigate a mess of road construction and short tempered drivers to get there.

Rosander took the big Mulie last year in Eastern Montana at the outskirts of a town called Colstrip.

I love deer hunting. I also love bargain hunting!
Every year I browse the Manufacturers websites for rebates, coupons and promo codes for deals on hunting gear. This year I’ve decided to share some of these deals with my blog buddies.
Federal Cartridge has several promotions running.

How To Hunt Deer Funnels
I’m going to assume that you haven’t lived under a rock your entire deer hunting life. However, even if you have, I’ll briefly describe what a deer funnel is.
A deer funnel is basically anything that causes deer to pass through a narrow or restricted area. Think of the tiny midsection of an hour glass and you’ll get the picture.

After writing about how the .243 Winchester was not a good round for the beginning deer hunter, I received a number of emails asking me which rounds I would consider for new deer hunters.
Here’s My Pick of Rifle Cartridges For the Beginning Deer Hunter
Note: This list is in no order. Any of these cartridges are more than enough for any Whitetail or Mule Deer buck that walks.

I bought my Mellennium Designed Muzzleloader “Buckwacka” .45 caliber black powder rifle about 3 years ago. I had previously owned and shot a few inline muzzleloaders since “coming over” from the traditional black powder rifle. Yet, when I shot those rifles and carried them afield, I never felt like I was shooting a ‘real’ rifle plus most of them left something to be desired in the way they shot and operated.
