Well, our season doesn't open until Nov. 14th. so I have time to change my mind. But right now the plan is to hunt with the .54 Great Plains flintlock on the morning of the 14th (95 grains GOEX FFFg under a patched ball). The .50 Lyman Mustang for the evening hunt (105 grains T7 under a .452 300 grain Gold Dot in a Harvester short black sabot), and the .45 Green Mountain barreled Renegade for the morning of the 15th. (85 grains GOEX FFFg under a .410 210 grain Gold Dot in a Harvester 45/40 sabot).

Hopefully she won't forget

Well, it was not opening day but the following Sunday, October 4, 2009. I took my oldest daughter , my T/C Grey Hawk, open sights, 90 grains of fffg 777, and a Hornady GP 385 gn slug. I darn near forgot; dont forget the primer and the wonder wad. All we got was a large doe. She dressed at 117 which is huge for Upstate South Carolina. I don't think that my daughter will be forgetting the memories of her first hunt either. I would post pictures but don't know how.

Next Thursday (15th) our four day antlerless season opens. What am I going to take to the woods? Well it will be a Tc Hawken in either 45, 50 or 54 cal. Changed some sights and need to get something sighted in soon. What ever rifle ends up going to the woods, it will be loaded with Hornady great plains bullets and triple seven 2f.
