I can promise the 270 would be terrible

Even a direct heart shot would put a hole smaller than a pencil thru it

They'd run and bleed for days

Ik a 30/06 can eassly take down a elk

They've got great impact and do major damage, just wonder about the range for elk hunting. If you're looking at 300+ yards might want to look into 300 mag

Only elk hunts I've watched were deep in the mountains, high range shots

Can't remember what they were using, been awhile

Deer truck go brrr

Cause when you get nothing during gun season, you start thinking, “ c’mon I want to at least get something” and you’re willing to shoot most everything to fill the freezer.

I saw 3 does this season but haven't got anything and it's near the end so next deer or pig I see is getting blasted no matter how small it is.

I’ve never taken a shot at a deer more than 60+ yards max

Now if it's a baby I'm not going to shoot it but you get what I mean

Does a yearling fill the freezer tho

Well at least it's something

@KungFlu BatSoup where the heck u hunting? And what the heck are you doing that you've only seen 3 does?

@Meatball by fort polk louisiana

Yeah it doesn’t fill the freezer, but you don’t want to go season without getting anything. But, I’ve shot a yearling before and I’m not doing that again.

Public or private track?

Private

Acreage?

@Milkgamer55 was the time cleaning not worth the meat you get?

400 I believe

How many hunters on it?

35

Yeah, it wasn’t worth getting to the guts, for the amount meat. Besides I felt bad for shooting a a small one

Well there's your problem. Lmao

Wayyyy too much pressure.

I think it's more that 400 the man just owns 400 acres and rents some from logging companys to

Because the part my east stand is on is not logged and he owns it but my west stand is logged

Of coarse I’ve got a bunch of bucks in my backyard and haven’t been in the right place and the right time.

Last year they knocked over my stand and destroyed a feeder while logging

Yeah, way too much pressure man

Too much human activity

Gotta find a better track

Most of the big bucks are all probably mostly nocturnal too

Yeah they are I have a 8 point on my cam

I'm on 100 acres, sitting between a massive ag farm, but it's only me and my bro's family, we get tons of activity

You got to catch them early in the morning

Another problem might be that one stand is on a trail to to it easier to get to and the other one is 3 and a half hour ride into the woods

I’m going turkey huntin in the morning. It’s opening day for late fall turkey shotgun season here in Kentucky.
