A fun first evening of Muzzleloader season. I had not shot my gun since last year. One shot to verify zero and put it to work… I only shot one of these. 😀. Time to clean it for another year.

My bird hunting buddy, Clint and I went for a couple hours this afternoon. Peanut did his thing. We saw a couple covey of quail and another 8-10 pheasants. Laziness kept me from completing the limit. Peanut had him pointed a couple hundred yards from the truck but I didn’t have the legs...

Mason picked up this set today while we were pheasant hunting. This deer is a big 6 this year.
