Hunting & Fishing Through scope hunting pics

[redirt78]

Didn't plan on taking pictures but got a few with my phone.

Can see 600 + yds

380 yard does

Young buck at 300 that came to scent check the does, maybe 110" and 3yrs old. He wouldn't stand still and I had the flash on, whoops. It figures since he was a buck and it would have been a cool pic.

Got this old one in the same area at 456 yards last year. His teeth were almost worn out

One of my deer from two years ago, got this one at 75 yards on the same powerline

Pic from the climber I was in about ten minutes before taking my big 8

Almost all the deer I have taken in the last 9 years were with 140 grain Nosler ballistic tips in either 7mm08 or 7mmSTW

Hopefully going to add a few pictures of a big one from this season, if I do I'll use a real camera this time haha.

Tikka'd, nice buck and picture. Looks like he has room to grow but it's kinda hard for me to judge Texas body size/type since I have no experience there. Either way hes a great buck. If he is 3 or 4 he will score big in a few years. Hope you see him later on down the road.

Dj, I have friends who started hunting them with night vision recently. Looks like fun and a good way to get rid of a lot of pigs. There is a local company here that guides hunts with thermal scopes on AR10's. Pretty cool stuff.

500 yard hogs, should of but didn't... Had a field full of does in front of me and wanted to see what kind of bucks came to check them. The pigs left, two spike bucks came and ran the does off the field and then it got dark. Turns out I should have fed the hogs some lead. The one in the hairs looked to be in the 300 pound range and the one to its left was a little bigger. They are marked for death, no more passes.

Are you talking about JagerPro? That's where I bought my scope. They put down an impressive number of pigs.

I was talking about HOG S.W.A.T. but have heard of Jager and seen vids on Youtube.
