Time to retire them sticks and strings,

Post by Vaquero » Fri Nov 07, 2025 9:43 am

here in Tennessee at least, that's right put them away.
Time to pick up the smokepoles, season starts tomorrow.
I haven't decided which is going yet 😕 the .50 cal. Hawkins or the. 54 cal. Renegade :?: :roll: One thing is for sure, the 1858 44 will be tagging along.
Of these 3 only it has laid meat on the ground. :o ;)
Hopefully all the rain gets out of here today and we won't have to deal with it.

Thanks guys.
I like the sound of that Al.

Hay Happy, not sure where you reside, but that's odd.
As to using the Jimmy, I got one with the Silverado a couple months back.

Well, I've gotten out a few times with each, but haven't pulled a trigger yet.
Saw a nice one Sun. afternoon, but too far away and following a doe steadily the opposite direction.
Mon. afternoon I had a decent 6 come by and I let him walk, he was 43 yds. at one time.
He'll be nice next year if he makes it through the season.
