Tater got another one!

[JDMAG]

Well, Tater killed his second deer today. Shot a button buck with his muzzle loader. He hadnt shot a muzzleloader until monday of last week, And last Saturday, he killed his first deer. today, he made his first muzzleloader kill. Shot it right smackdab between the eyes! :shock:
( I have already had the "ethics of takeing a questionable shot talk with him). It was appearently in some tall grass faceing him, and all he could see, ws the neck and head. IT had about a 1 foot blood trail. No lost meat here! He got to field dress this one too! Dont forget this is the kid that had the BAAAAD flinch about 3-4 weeks ago. 8)

Congratulations to the both of you. You did a great job of coaching, you have instilled a lot of confidence into Tater. I think you created a killing machine. :lol:
Good job fellas.

Thanks! hope the marines dont find him! Too soon any way

You've created a hunting machine!!!! Awesome!

By JD MAG the way I told you I was going to look so I did.




My dealer has 2 Remington 700's in 243 on Clearance. Both are shorties... perfect for your boy!

One is an ADL synthetic 20" barrel and the other is a Rem model 7 again with a short barrel. The guns are new in box! He wants $350 for the Rem model 7 and I am betting less for the ADL. If you do not want them or Anyone else, can pm me and I will put you in touch with him. Great guy!

 

[JDMAG]

Thats a pretty good price on the model 7. Thats what Tater has now. I would like to get him something larger for the future. You've seen my 22-250 I also have a model 700 classic in .243 that I'm not useing right now, So I may trade it off some time in the future. If times werent what they are I would just buy him something new, and keep them both. May look at the encor and get him a muzzle loader barrel, and something 30-06 or up.

 

[FOTIS]

Well if anyone wants one of the 243's or a 25wssm browning for 499 e-mail or pm me...

JDMAG....
Congrats to both of you once again !! :wink: Way to go... nothing like having the oportunity to take a couple animals with two different methods that close together.... that has to be a huge confidence booster !
That will give your Son memories forever....

POP....
Darn good prices on those two Remingtons... complete gun for the price of an action.... hmmmm... makes me think :grin:

Oh, way to go!! Dont worry about that ethics question. I'd say that boy is over his flinch!?!? Havin a good year aint he. Hows he gonna top that next year. Aw who cares...smart money says hes hooked! CL

 

[Antelope_Sniper]

I've never considered head shot's "unethical".
The critter is either dead, or it's a clean miss. Just know your backstop.

 

[JDMAG]

I agree with this as long as you are a fairly decent shot and it is a frontal shot. either dead or missed. But if it was a side shot, I have seen a deer get it's bottom jaw on snout blown off, and that aint perty, or easy to follow up on.

Congrats.
