[QUOTE="CMP70306, post: 1730405, member: 36999"] If we have a few deer in the freezer by the last weekend of rifle season we started doing what we call the “old school weekend”. Everyone has to hunt with iron sighted rifles except the old guys who are allowed to use an old scoped rifle. For example I carried my 1873 last year, my brother carried his 1895 in .405 and my dad used his Savage 99 with a 2-7 Redfield. We started this because my after the first two weekends we shot 10 deer dad was tired of cleaning them and figured he needed to handicap to make us earn it. This embargo resulted in our buddy making a 200 yard offhand shot on a big 8 point with his grandfather’s 1894 in 30-30, his first ever buck with a rifle. [/QUOTE]
