            • I could build a natural blind, but i gotta buy a feeder for this place as well. So it can wait. I've got until dec31 to shoot the rest of my tags.

              Im just happy to finally find some decent bucks this year.

              • Just out of curiosity, whats everyone's take on hunting deer with an AR? Seems like its generally frowned upon in the hunting community, but is there any substance to the attitude toward it?

                  I have no problems with it at all as long as a quality hunting style bullet is used.

                    Don't worry about what you can't change.
                    Do the best you can with what you have.
                    Be honest, even if it hurts.

                    • 3 pigs last weekend over 200 lbs.

                      one of the 3 hogs we killed last weekend all over 200 lbs. they have unlimited food since all the rain at san saba. We're going to have to weed eat under the feeders cause you can't see the deer the dam weeds are so tall.

                            What would constitute a quality hunting bullet in 223? Hollow Points?

                              He MAY be referring to something other than 223...(just sayin"). I agree though, I know a lot of folks that frown on using at least the tactical looking ARs for hunting. Personally, if it's not against the law and you can shoot it well - I could not care any less. Although, I like the idea of knowing without a doubt I generally only have that one shot and to make it count. Where with a semi-auto it could be considered that you can be sloppier. (although, I don't know why people shoot at running deer in the woods more than once.)

                              In regards to the question, if it's not illegal - go do it. I personally won't for deer if I can avoid it. i.e. this is my first year hunting in TX (Deer) and had considered it since my first rifle is in PA. I just bit the bullet and bought another rifle though.
