Teens Rate Favorite Ammo for Deer Season

 With deer season just around the corner, I asked some of my teen friends what they will be taking into the woods this season. Their answers may surprise you.
    Bobby Fallon of Ypsilanti, Michigan writes. " My two sisters and I all use the .270 early in the season. We sometimes take shots at around two hundred yards across the fields late and early in the day. It shoots flat at that distance. When we drive out the woodlots later in the season, we  switch to the shot guns with whatever slugs we have laying around . They have great knock down power in close and we use them to kick the bunnies around if the deer aren't co-operating."
    Jilly Brown of Bennington, Vermont writes. " You don't think  of the .45/70 as a girls gun, but I only take one shot a year. Knocks them right down everytime, no matter where you hit 'em. But goddamn, that gun kicks like a mule!"
     Thanks kids for your ammo insights. Who sez teens don't have good sense?
