This is the first civil war bullet for me. Found an area along the route to the battle of Spring Hill that was scraped yesterday and went there this morning to get permission to hunt. They were glad to not only allow me but to give me a brief history of the land. It is about 30 acres so I think this will be nice for a while for me. Today was only there for about 20 minutes then it started to rain so hopefully tomorrow.
Getting the fever now and I love it. Here is a pic of it. not too good pic but i have to get better at that too, lol.
