I refer to the "woods" as a place, where deer live and I hunt. To me that can be a clear cut, hardwood bottom, or pine plantation. I refer to the woods much like I would use the term city, which could be a park, neighborhood, industrial park, etc...

As far as magnum limit, I never said there was one. Shoot what you like. There are some on this board who shoot 338 Lapua Mags, and I say good for them. I'm certainly not going to say they are not needed, as their deer are just as dead as mine.


OK, woods is all inclusive to you, any terra. When I'm in a bean field in the "woods" where I have 400yd+ shots I'll break out the 7mm short mag with a hubble telescope on top. When I'm in the "woods" woods I'll tote a .308 bush hog.
