I took an old leather work glove and cut the cuff off of it. It slid right over the hammer area and as the rifle was coming up i just slid it forward a little to clear it from getting in the way.

 

Do you shoot with a scope or iron sights?

 

Just the iron. I keep a scope on the varmint rifle I keep around the barn but that's all there good for. Out in your neck of the woods i could see usin a scope with all the mountain areas. But being a born and bread bowhunter and being in the midwest here most of my deer are within 20 yards. I'm into challenge and sport, not much of a born killer.

 

Iron sights here, too.....part of the fun of shooting black powder. Might put a scope on it next year, especially if I go for elk with it.

 

My one big hunt I've always wanted to do someday is a Bowhunt for Elk. My only big game is deer, never been after anything else but some day I wanna see an elk within Bow range.

 

Its all over had 6 people shooting

I put a new scope on and it was shooting 3 feet low and 8 inches left

7 Shots later I smoked a milk jug at 110Yards

I only used 100 Grains of power

WOOT !!

SWEET!!!

They do it up here, gotta give them boys & girls credit--getting an elk with a bow is a studly move.....

 

I started life out in Tacoma as a kid, that's where it all started was watchin those guys come home with them big ole monsters.

 

Ah, Tacompton.....what a place (to be from...)

The elk are still here and are still big.
