Guys,

You are right about the deer not being as large in Louisiana as their cousins up North but there are some areas of Louisiana where the Wisconsin strain was released many years ago. Your larger bucks will run around 250 to 300 pounds.

I do not hunt Louisiana anymore. My kids and I hunt in Arkansas and I also have a ranch in Texas that I hunt.

As far as a debate about a .410 being the perfect deer gun.....I didn't say this. My younger kids start on this gun just like I did and they seem to do very well dispatching a doe or buck within a limited range. The limited range is all you are going to let a six year old shoot anyway.

One more thing, I know you guys were brought up thinking that us dem dare cajuns all live in da swamp and ride our pirouqes to school and the only job is to catch dem crawfish but I am here to tell you.....This doesn't happen even in the Atchafalya Basin where there are some old cajuns. But they live on dry ground and in an actual house.

This is a generalization kind of like all rednecks live in a double wide and have a cargrave yard in their front yard.

LOL
