    Saturdays opening day down here too, tomorrow you will be joining a fraternity of others who sleep little, get up way too da** early, walk in the woods while its dark only to climb a tree and take a nap.

    welcome to deer hunting at its best!

    theres been a major increase in wolves and coyotes. we were mostly around hadasville but also around elma. theres been a major increase in both places. we were out today and didn't see a single deer all day.

    Or the deer saw that you had a 30-30 with no scope.

    Well that's true. I guess when it comes down to it the deer doesn't really care if it was a .243 or a Ford.

    How to impress women.......Don't even know where they live..... me dummy.

    Well, You could go shopping for a Remington Model 870 "Youth DEER" in 20 Gauge, with iron sights. And send the bill to Trax.......

    I am going to order one of the exact same firearms for myself. I like the shorter length of pull for winter when I wear 5" of clothing. I have a Rem 11-87 "youth" 20 Gauge now but it has no sights.
