Tomorrow the 26th of Nov. starts rifle deer season in Pa. with nearly a million hunters going to hunt. There has been a lot of preparation done for the first day of the season, like buy a new rife, scope, tree stand, fall protection, game camera, and maybe a new hunting knife. Make sure to stay safe, wear 250 sq. inches of blaze orange minimum hat and vest, prefer blaze orange all over. If you hunt out of a tree stand be safe and wear fall protection, every year people fall out of there tree sand and get KILLED of SERIOUSLY INJURED, it has already happened in bow season this year. Have a successful year hunting deer and if you have a youth son or daughter introduce them to the great sport of hunting.

Ground Hog Hunting

It won’t be long till the ground hogs will be out to hunt. This makes good target practice with a rifle with a long range scope, like a 4x12x 50 or larger power scope. A 222, 243, 22-250, or even a 270win. with a 110 gr. v-max from Hornady will make a perfect rifle to shoot short or long range. I have used my 270 win. with 110 gr. v-max and killed ground hog to 300 yd. . It is good practice till deer season, when the big buck shows up in deer season, keeps a person in practice. If you live out west where the prairie dogs are, this also makes good target practice. Most farmers will let you hunt for ground hogs because of the destruction they cause, the crops they eat & the holes they make. While driving a tractor in a field and there is a hole from a ground hog and the farmer can’t see it and drives in it, this can cause serious damage to farm tractor or equipment or worse personal injury. With a range finder a person can range how far the ground hog is and hold the cross hairs accordingly for a perfect shot. Have a great day hunting.
