Good job.

Nice work

 

[Fremen]

Thanks.

This is my third year out for deer.

I used an T/C Omega Z5 muzzle loader for the shot.
Other then being allot of work to clean I like it allot.

I leave it on in case I need to reload. I take it out once in my stand.

Congrats! That'll fill out the freezer nicely
Using a black powder rifle to hunt must have been fun. One of these days I want to try it out myself.

Good work. Always extra fun to use stuff like a home made bullet too!

Well done, congrats.
What, no details on the homemade bullet??

50/50 pork and venison plus your favourite sausage recipe. Being your first kill it will taste very sweet so cut back on the sugar.
