[Little Wattsy]

I want to see your pictures of your "first" first deer, squirrel, turkey, elk, alligator, first BP game animal you took a picture of , etc.. Yes, all that you have.

I will post this in non-muzzleloader section also expanded out to ANY "firsts" with any weapon that you have photos of.

I know a lot of you have seen my pictures but I want to see yours even if its again...

Nice pictures. But I have to ask, why are the rest of the buffalos just standing around back there?

They had just finished attacking the downed one (very impressive display as they literally tossed him about)
This was on a 1600 acre enclosure, buffalo have no natural enemies, and they were certainly less then scared nor impressed with me shooting one.
Also I refer to this as a harvest VS a "hunt" like we would do "fair case" for deer or elk.

Ah, ok. :hatsoff:

Not my first by any means, but the only one I have in photobucket.

Don't have my first, second or 33rd..

Started back in the 70s, never really thought about having pictures taken back then...We hunted for the meat and didn't waste any time getting it butchered for the table...

Things sure have changed through the years...

Thanks Mike..

I understand about no pictures; Ive lost nearly 3 decades of outdoor pursuits and nadda to "show" lucky me I didn't start MLing until after the digital camera and now I have kids to teach...

My photos of game taken with T/C Hawkens are in archives and I'd have to load them back onto Photobucket to post here, but here are some from the recent years with long guns I got to replace the T/C Hawkens:
