I still think if the guy had this planned, he would have brought more than
8 or ten rounds with him. How many do you guys that hunt usually take
with you?

They are going to give a press conference around 2 PM on Fox about it.
Maybe more info will come out then.

BTW, Daryl, great picture of your trophy, oops....I mean Dawn's trophy.
My wife wants us to wait until the season's over to take out the Rhino.
If I'm hunting close to home I usually just carry 10 rounds, hopfully I won't ever need that many shots to kill one deer. But I do like to carry the extras for signaling in case of an emergency.
It is an odd case, stranger things have happened, I remember several years ago some maniac was going around shooting deer hunters, I don't remember which state it was now.
A lot of hunters and hunting clubs are very protective of their hunting property, I know it really pi$$es me off when I catch someone trespassing on my property, not to the point of shooting them though. And sometimes they do get pretty upset when they are told to leave. I've tried to get the law involved but by the time the Deputies or Game officials get there the trespassers have left.
BTW Dawn put it on me again this weekend, she got an 8 point and I got a 6 pointer. It's gonna be a long cold winter.
