I started hunting in 89 or 90. Before that "big game" was birds and chipmunks with an air rifle (one crow sat long enough for me to take him down - that was a big day). My early hunting career was a little unorthodox: I shot a deer before I ever got a rabbit or squirrel. Being in the midwest with a high population, we were limited to slug guns and muzzleloaders with a handful of pistol rounds being legal at the time as well (only 5 I believe). 1st deer was taken with a smoothbore 16g slug gun. I've been really blessed to take quite a few deer since then, along with a few turkeys and a bunch of small game.
