Good luck to all those that are still hunting...I took my 44 Super Blackhawk Hunter with me along with my 7-08 rifle. Had a doe at 5 yards from my blind on opening morning. I had her "dead" in the sights of my 44. I decided to wait and see what else happens...I shouldn't have. Oh well, that is why they call it hunting and not shooting.

hammer was back and the cross-hairs were just getting to where they needed to be but she spooked off before I could get it settled in. better to wait then wound. decent doe at about 20 yards. talk about a rush. that was the first deer ive been able to look at in the scope of the revolver. any success guys?

Had a hard time finding horns, the deer are in the corn fields and staying low because the weather has been so warm. that is supposed to change.

I did manage to see a nice buck today, but it was in the closing minutes and I couldn't get a clear shot, he'll be back. then it started to rain...... then I hit a doe with the truck.

8 days of hunting on State land (Sterling Forest) and saw a total of 5 deer.
Could not shot a doe this season so it's tag soup this year.
Heading down to S.C. to meet up with my son and do some hog hunting in a few weeks.
