Continue reading »]]> Now that the season is over I have started a deer hunting equipment checklist. I like to get started early getting my deer hunting equipment organised and deciding what I need to upgrade and its priority on my checklist. By knowing what I need for next season early it gives me time to compare different brands and prices of the product I’m wanting to get and look for deals everywhere, weather it be online, in stores, or by word of mouth.  And by the time the season rolls around I’ll have all the things I need for a successful year of deer hunting.

Make your deer hunting checklist early.

There are some things on my checklist that I need to get and some things that I want to get. I’m sure I will see a lot of things I want to get at the upcoming Monster Buck Classic. I can’t wait to see some of the great new products they have at the show. I’m sure there will be a few things there that I just can’t leave there without. By getting started early I can get things one at a time as I have a little extra cash it’s not as hard on my wallet rather than trying to buy it all right before the season. I received a couple of gift cards for Christmas one to Cabela’s and one to Bass Pro Shops and they will really come in handy. A big part of this website is using trail cameras.

Trail cameras are one of the most important pieces of hunting equipment for us here at deerhuntingbigbucks.com.

We like to share pictures with you on here of big bucks and I have several trail cameras but I’m wanting to get one or two more. I am having problems with one of my trail cameras and I need to replace it. In the past I have bought the less expensive devices  and I am thinking I want to get a nicer one that has all the features I am looking for. There are a few other things on my list that I will be looking for soon like a two man ladder stand, a loc-on stand and a ground blind. I also need a few other things like camouflage pants, head-net, beanie, and some gloves for bow season and some to keep me warm when it gets downright cold. As you probably know it can all add up quickly and by making a list early you can shop smarter and get the things you need in the off season by doing a little research and making sure you get what you need at the best prices and make sure you get a good quality product.

Steps For Cleaning

Attention: Before doing anything make sure the firearm is unloaded! Only then proceed with cleaning.

Assemble the rod and screw the desired tip patch holder in. Pull a patch through the tip and soak it with cleaning solvent.

2. Push the rod with the soaked patch down the barrel to coat the bore. Take off the dirty patch at the other end of the barrel. Wait a few minutes to let the solvent soak into the dirty barrel.

3. Pull the rod back out of the barrel without a patch, then screw in the correct brush to the rod. Soak this brush with solvent and push and pull it up and down the barrel 5 or 6 times. Put the patch tip back on and put a patch on the tip and dip it in solvent and push it down the barrel with a clean patch until the patch comes out clean. Then push a dry clean patch down the barrel to get rid of ant remaining solvent.

4. Then put a few drops of gun oil to a clean patch and push it through to leave a slight coat of oil inside the barrel.

5. With a proper(nylon) brush coated with solvent brush any powder away that you see or any debris away from the action. Once the action is clean use a gun oil to barely coat all parts and surfaces.

6. Reassemble the firearm and wipe any areas you touch with your skin with a soft cloth slightly oiled.

Check and make sure the action is working properly or the bolt. Also make sure the bore is clear of anything before firing.
