Caught this bad boy in the act the other day... He's standing about 32 yds from where I have my ground blind situated.... I'm fully focused on this guy! If I am blessed enough to see him in real life while I'm in the blind, I pray to God I don't get to shaking and miss the shot lol....

Good luck! I assume you have a rifle in mind that you plan to use?

Oh Darrell, now that's a beast. That will take some control on your part due to an adrenaline rush. Hope you get your chance.

Darrell I wish you the best of luck getting that one, you usually do pretty good with that Dragon Claw. The Dragon Claw IMO is still one of the bargain deals out there for a big bore out there because the big bores just seem to be much more pricey in comparison to the smaller calibers. We have to have 35 cal or larger here in Mi.
