    Michigan deer opener

    My friends and I went bow hunting the third week of Oct up in Lake county where they have the new antler restrictions. We saw more scrapes and rubs then I have seen in the last 30 years. I normally hunt the Rogue River game area but the die off last year from EHD (EDH?) was so bad I may not try...

    sitting fox rifles

    I picked up a kit from Ray a few years back now. While it is the only muzzle loader I own I feel that the price was very fair and the quality was good. The stock was roughed for barrel and lock which left me a decent amount of work to do for my first build but not so much that I was overly...

    one underlug enough?

    I hope the build goes well for you. If you can post pictures when you're done would be great. I've been curious about doing a pistol myself. Larry

    Kit Assembly

    I built my first gun a little over a year ago. It was a kit about the same level as yours. I didn't buy any books but I got a ton of help from the people on this forum. They know their stuff! :bow: Mine went together with only a couple of small problems which the folks here helped me solve. It...

    Roedeerseason starts in 4 weeks!

    Kirrmeister, good luck this season. If you don't mind my asking what's the terrain like where you hunt? Private land? Public? Do you hunt small tracts of land or do you have larger open areas? Larry

    Builder Sitting Fox?

    Hawkeye, I ordered a gun from Sitting Fox two summers back now. I got a gun with the stock roughed out for the barrel and the sights already on the barrel. This was my first build and I’m proud to say that when I walk in the woods pieces don’t fall off. I am very happy with my gun. I felt the...

    Load penetration on Turkeys

    Thanks everyone for the ideas. I will try the tuna cans for the penetration and put the targets up to check my pattern at distance. I'll try both 70 and 80 grains and see if that makes a difference. I had 11 turkeys pass through the back yard yesterday morning. 9 hens and 2 strutting toms...

    Load penetration on Turkeys

    Turkey season is only about a month away here in Michigan and I am looking forward to getting out. Last season was my first with my smoothbore flintlock and I never got a shot off as I couldn’t get anything closer then 40 yards. I only felt comfortable out to about 22 yards. Part of the reason...
