: Just another day in hunting PARADISE
: shadow March 10, 2007, 11:08:13 PM

Awoke about 4:00am this morning and decided to take a little walk and stalk out back of my place. The weather is breaking and the temp's have climbed nicely. I washed down some java and threw on my camo gear. As I stepped out into the predawn, I noticed that the moon was out and a cloudless sky, a very peacefull feeling. I chambered a Predator and began working my way into the field's and after about 20 min. I spotted a moonlite shadow against the snow about 15 yrd's in front of me. I dropped down and played possum,he didn't see me so I dropped the bipod leg's and settled in. I set the crosshairs on the shadow, got myself zen and hit the lamp.With my lamp blazing on him I was waiting for him to bolt, he just froze. With my deer in the headlight's so to speak I set the crosshair's and laser sight. Clean and to the point, right behind the eye.! Just another day hunting in PARADICE. Ed

That was a nice shot. That laser/light combo is really great. I have one on my S1K too, though the spring broke on it yesterday. That is a great feeling when that first shot hits home. Nicely done.

Nice job.  Cottontail season doesn't start here until July, but seeing your picture is already pumping me up.
