Thread: Scratched Another One Off Bucket List

    Scratched Another One Off Bucket List

    Hi y'all
    I got permission to hunt a new house today. So my hunting buddy and I headed over. The yard was infested with clad and toy cars and planes. But I did manage to score three wheaties and some chunky silver.
    Thanks for looking!
