@nicksynnz I'm not a city boy, trust me. I live on the outskirts of Orlando. Well my parents do, i live on my universities campus for obvious reasons. But i'd like to move out to Colorado after i get my masters. I haven't hunted bear yet but my father has. I always have class when he goes. There are bear here in Florida, black bear, but not big. Panthers too, but are illegal to hunt.

@TheGhostfacekilla86 You sound like a city boy who wishes he was in the country. Good on you for you hunting though, you seem passionate. Never been salt water fishing in my life as I am a hill billy and concentrate on rainbow or brown trout; the marlin can stay in the sea. I have never ever killed with a spear so you are up on me with that one and usually use a .270 never having use a .375. Now do you hunt bear. We do not have them here.

@nicksynnz Also, i hunt lots of deer and gator here in Florida. PS: I've been fishing since i was three lol. I have caught thousands of fish and hundreds of species. There's not fresh water trout here in florida, but i have caught them out west and in NC. But i mainly saltwater fish. In shore AND off shore. Don't even tell me i have no experience. I live in the out doors buddy :)

@piguif I agree looks like the goats on Molesworth station.

@nicksynnz You're kidding right? You're telling me that because you've caught more freshwater trout, and killed more birds that i have hunted less? Rofl. Actually the first weapon i shot, was a 4-10 slug out of a snake charmer when i was six at a wild hog. I'm 22 now and have killed hundreds of them, mainly with spears, it's fun that way. I have hunted Africa twice, with a .375. Great Caliber, and i go out west almost every year for elk and mule deer.

@deano845 I would not use a muzzle loader like this as it has lost it authenticity. I use a muzzle loader but it is a genuine one with black powder. You might as well use a modern rifle instead of the thing this guy uses.

@randymckenzie I shoot my Pedersoli .50 cal effectively to about 100m (100 yards) with a round lead ball using wadding. Deadly accurate with heaps of power.

@TheGhostfacekilla86 From what I can read, I doubt if you have used anything more than a .22 to shoot a rabbit and then I doubt that. You say alot but seem to know nothing. All mouth and no substance.

@alpinecountryhunting why not? It is not like shooting deer on a deer farm though I know a few people who have done this.

@MrWyoming67 Any dude who wears a cowboy hat and constantly cleans his guns in the hut, loading, cocking and unloading are just what they appear to be...amateur cowboys.

When we see them we leave and go elsewhere..avoid them like the plague.
