Default Muley Hunter vs. Whitetail

I remember Muley metioning that he never see's a whitetail out his way. I found this picture of him on another sight (must be hunting with that 30/30) and figured out why, he never see's them..

hahaha ive done that many times. Just find a nice big field with some trees in the middle, plop under it and wake up a couple hours later with a stiff neck and some ants crawling under your nose.

I once woke up to see a buck in the field in front of me... and shot it. I had a job working midnight shift. I had sat at the base of a tree watching a field. And the nice warm sun was shining on me, and I was so comfortable sitting there. What made me wake, I have no idea. But I opened my eyes and there was a little five pointer out in the field. So I raised the rifle to my knee, and ended my hunting that day.

Last year my 21 year old son was watching deer way off yonder with his binocs. After watching them for 10 minutes or so he lowered them down to see a double drop tine muley standing 20 yards in front of him.

It was his first BP deer.

I don't think that's Muley Hunter. He's at least twice as old as the guy in that picture, maybe three times.

That war wasn't civil. At least not where I was. Why, a man couldn't even get a decent glass of wine with his meal, or a Scotch afterward.
