Title: 2nd Last day of the season, Tallon scores!
Post by: Ontario Longbow on December 30, 2012, 08:04:00 PM
Long, long season, up until tonight I only have  seen two deer while hunting (started Oct.1st). Lots of very cold sits but the merino wool and the KOM jacket made me very comfortable.Just before dark a small doe gave me a shot at 5 yards and I made no mistake. I watched her drop in less than 50 yards but the Woodsman Elite 250g left a trail a blind man could follow. So impressed with the shooting of the new Tallon 52@27.

awsome, I got mine yesterday with 2 days to spare, it's a great feeling to have one less pot of tag stew to eat.

Congrats on the end of season whitetail. That's getting the most hunting time out of a tag, which isn't a bad thing at all.

Nice work. You gotta love huntin in the snow. Out here in B.C. I got a doe with 3 days left in the season. Feels good after a long season don't it? Your pics are great but it don't look like the Wasaga Beach I remember from the seventies. I remember  less trees and more girls in bikinis. I guess it was a different kind of hunting season.

Holy Cow Frank, did you seriously say you have only seen TWO deer since Oct. 01st???  Man, if that isn't persistence I don't know what is.  You have my respect sir, we are obviously spoiled here in Iowa.  Great job and the photo of those loins is sweet......red gold is what we call em'!
