Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Dean you don't need to hunt dangerous game to use enough gun. I have taken Whitetails with my .416 Taylor. Big hole in big hole out and with very little meat damage. I've torn up a deer worse with a 270 than the Taylor.

I guess it all depends on bullet placement. A double-lung shot or a heart shot will do little damage to meat (although I do enjoy the heart) but the best for dropping your game in it's tracks is the spine shot - preferably high on the shoulder blade or close to the head. A well placed broadhead will do even less damage to the meat... eh, Larry?
