What does everyone really do for a living? (320 posts)

I know that most of us would say we hunt or would like to hunt more then we work, but we have to have the income to fuel our passion, so I pose the question, what do you do for a living.

I will go first,  Marketing.

Longest shot made on a deer with your Weatherby? (91 posts)

How far away was your longest shot made on a deer using a Weatherby rifle?  Please list the model you were using, the caliber and bullet.  My longest shot on a Whitetail deer was 375 yards with my left hand 7mm Wby. mag. Lazermark using the 139 grain Hornady bullet.  (I wish Weatherby currently made a left hand Lazermark/Deluxe!)

I thought I'd post an update since I made a longer shot this past fall with my weatherby than the prior 9 yard shot! This one was a whopping 40 yards in the woods of western PA!!!

Smallish doe quartering toward me. Entrance hole at point of one shoulder and removed half of the opposite shoulder and the leg was hanging by a piece of...

    Hunting for food (28 posts)

    I am a 41 year old New Zealander, who has travelled a fair bit, and has recently moved back to NZ. I did a fair bit of hunting growing up, and continued when I travelled.
    While I was travelling I saw a lot of agricultural areas and poor farming practices, and gave up meat. I was a vegetarian for seven years.

    During that period, I di...

      Hey Huntwriter:  Sorry it was a red FI-DO,  Long story and not suited for this forum,  the monkey meat wasn't all that bad, so long as I had enough beer, I have no clue what it was.  I couldn't handle the Balut.  Hey we were all young back then.  I still can't believe Skygod ate that coyote,  back o...

You can now find Weatherby Vanguard rifles at your favorite gun shop for as little as $399. And, each Vanguard comes with a f...

        weatherby video contest (34 posts)

        as I was looking at the videos who were finalist I was surprised on how several  people who allready own weatherby rifles were choosen as finalist. I thought the constest was about   "I  want a weatherby not for another one" I think the all the finalist should have been to hunters who dont own any weatherbys!

When Frank gets it, the camera will come out and pictures will be posted. That way everyone can see the gun that Frank got. I will try to keep you posted. Unl...

            Chris, my compliments on job well done; just this morning, I mentioned to my Lovely Wife that I believe I could spend a day at this website, and never tire of it.

            That said, I need a little help:  Editing my profile, I cannot seem to complete the "What I hunt" section.  I've tried this more than once, but for som...

            I hunt mostly birds and small game in McKean County, PA, although I do occasionally like to put venison in the freezer too. The Mark V 7mm W.M. is a little much for the whitetail because most shots are inside 75 yards around here, so I use my Remington Model 7 7mm-08 on deer and my Benelli Nova or Winchester 1300 for everything else.
