Rifle Deer Hunting Boredom

[Ruttin]

I didn't want to hi jack Allen's Moose hunt thread so who else has rifle bordem? What do you do to cure it?

I have started using different rifles, shooting archery more and even the dreaded...planning on heading east for an OTC deer hunt with the slug gun this year. Probably the cheapest OTC buck tag in the US??

How can you get bored with rifles? They’re the only interesting firearm!!

I do know what you’re talking about. I was just messing with you.

I don’t hunt much anymore, that’s how.

I had that problem for awhile I collected guns and had so many I got bored I started hunting with pistols and archery and muzzy if I ever get drawn lol but then I got back the rifle itch I challenged myself with longer range and precision reloading also helps keep this interesting working different loads finding what works with what guns many different ways to keep things interesting

I usually use my "good" rifles for the first week of season hoping for a big buck but by the second weekend i'm grabbing some random guns from the safe to try. I enjoy the M1 garand and sitting with an AR15-A1 that i built for my dad to mimic his that he carried in Vietnam. The M1A comes out every now and again along with the model 94 30-30.

The problem with "new cartridges" is that they've already improve that lightbulb to last longer. Everything else is a novelty.

Done.

Of course I don't listen to my own logic....what fun is that.

Maybe I will try open sights, and close range?

Wife got the only tag this year so I get the living room watch and she gets to shoot out the kitchen window. Buddy stopped by while mowing ditches and cleared a nice shooting lane out back. With the way corn was planted around our place the deer traffic will be good. Have been watching some nice does and yearlings pass through and munch on what left of our apple trees. Wife will practice this week end on targets I have set out at different ranges. Her turn to fill the deep frez. LB
