Opener is this coming Saturday, November 14th. Weather is turning cooler just in time, with no rain in the forecast for opening weekend. Our season runs thru Nov. 29th.
I'm going old-school this year: My custom Mauser in 30-06, using 150gr Sierra GameKing over IMR 4064. Nothing fancy, but it works.
The Franchi Momentum 6.5 CM will be my backup/foul weather rifle, with the 129gr Hornady SSTs.
I turned 60 this year; my first deer season was 50 years ago. With a few exceptions, I've been deer hunting nearly every year since. I surely don't have another 50, but perhaps I'll be blessed with another 15 or 20, Lord willing.
Good luck to all our deer hunters. Stay safe and shoot straight. May all your blood trails end in happiness.
