    Another saddle buck

    Not a giant but another one from my saddle. Came in very early chasing a doe and grunting. Was still hunting in a primarily dog hunting club I’m a member of. Was a fun hunt. About 100 yd shot. Used tether and tree for a rest and drilled him with my 6.5 Creedmoor AR10 that I had built. DRT.

    Loving the versatility of saddle hunting

    Like the title says I’m loving the versatility of hunting from a saddle. I’m after an old buck that showed up that’s been daylight the past couple days and I had to get in without dying from heat exhaustion lol. Made it in quietly and no sweat! And using my lineman’s rope for a gun rest while...

    High one lung maybe?

    Man I hate you ain’t found him. Crazy things just happen sometimes bow hunting. A buddy shot a deer here and hit him decent. Same kind of scenario.... wound up killing him a few weeks later.

    Who Did Not Snort the Fairy Dust? And Why?

    I’m going to attempt to post some still shots from a hunt I filmed last bow season. A complete pass through on a good sow with a 29” Easton Hexx with 100 grain Swhacker launched from a 70# Halon 32. She was ranged at 42 yds. I had videoed my camera screen with my phone from the tree to send a...

    Who Did Not Snort the Fairy Dust? And Why?

    I now shoot an Easton 5mm axis 340 with 100 grain muzzy trocar. Weighs in at about 425. Prior to this year I’ve been shooting an Easton Hexx 340 with 100 grain Swhacker roughly 390 grains total. Never had an issue even when hitting shoulder. I believe accuracy and sharpness is the key. Bad shot...

    First saddle buck

    It’s be a fun experience with my Cruzr XC. Very comfortable, and I feel safer than I did with lock ons even though I always wore a harness. Feels almost natural. I hope you get your buck too!

    First saddle buck

    Killed my first saddle buck. Not a giant by no means but I’m gonna enjoy this moment of getting him from a saddle. I shot him at 30 yds and he ran maybe 25-30 after the shot....I put a Muzzy in the Fuzzy lol. He had a couple of does with him and a smaller 6 pt. Absolutely love hunting from my...

    Garmin Rhino gps radio?

    I’ve used then when I was working with the prison on the K-9 team. They had great reception anywhere we took them. We tracked folks for the sheriffs, pd, and game fish and never had a single issue. If you key up to talk it would update your coordinates on your partners radio if you have it...

    Video camera choice

    I have a Sony Handicam 675. It takes great video and the battery lasts a long time. It’s got the self stabilization and has a really good optical zoom before it goes digital. I run it on a Fourth Arrow with a manfrotto be free live head. Camera itself was a steal on eBay and came with multiple...

    Anyone just not like sticks?

    They ain’t too bad, got to want it lol. Used em with a LW lock on and a millennium micro m7. Saddle will make it that much lighter. Spurs is my main method when I can,

    Anyone just not like sticks?

    I personally like sticks, I use spurs on private where allowed but sticks when on public out where I know I’ll be climbing a pine or tree that’ll bleed sap everywhere. I did recently go back to buckles though. I found I’m quicker with them than the ropes but I still got the LW Versa button mod...

    I agree with you there. I did use Realtree.com KE and momentum calculator and the initial numbers match the chart.
