Eh hem, back on topic.
Pap I'm lucky to live just a skip and jump to my whitetail spots. Opening week we have a crew that has their own spots and we respect space. We've missed the rut on both sides of the opener. The backside is my chance; they all go home and I'm "home alone".
I hunt with two different rifles depending upon where I'm going. The Model 70 .308 gets the majority of the woods work. If I'm shooting cross open fields I'll take the WBY .257.
Knives are the easiest part of the day. Stock Randall 14 for whatever comes strapped to my shoulder pac. Field dresser is always Kevin's Randall 11-3. Made him a promise before he died that I would always take him hunting. It's got his name engraved and he hasn't missed a year yet.

I don't have time today but I'll follow up with pics.
