No handguns in Canada so we all hunted with rifles.

I hunted with a Winchester M-94 in 32 caliber. They put me up in a tree stand that had to be 50 feet off the ground. It was raining and windy and first off it was a pain getting my ass and the rifle up to that tree stand. (I forgot to bring a sling)Then with the wind and rain the stand rocked all day. They put me in the stand well before daylight and said we'll be back for lunch, not telling me lunch was 6 hours away. That was the longest 6 hours in my life. After lunch we went out to the town dump and shot feral cats all afternoon. Much more fun.
