The snow will cut our trip short and knowing this, I thumb in three shells, lever one in, and set my Winchester on half cock. I head up the mostly dry river, looking for a couple hat sized piggies for the wife to bbq. Five hundred yards later, I see a pig across the riverbed, 150 yards out, bobbing ...

Scott i used to hunt a place on the Devils River about 19,000 acres and ran into Audad pretty regularly, usually hunting turkeys while armed with .22s. This place was near Bakers Cave and had excellent fishing large and small mouth, catfish, caves. The place was so big you could get lost, but would ...

About 50 years ago Dad came home with a hot rock he found in the parking lot at work. It was the size and shape of a large russet baking potato. It was hot to touch, a real dark black/purple, and and had gold yellow green flecks all over, and seemed to change color a bit as you turned it in the ligh...

I recall a deer with white face, and white antlers, the rest being normal colored. This one as well, came under the too cool to kill category. I always hope these cool deer will make good seed bucks, till some other hunter comes along with different plans.

Killed a white Turkey years ago, with 2 small black feathers under his beard..
Saw a black fox, twice at my place. A black lion at my place (3 times). One deer was yellow like gold, a huge deer, too cool to kill.

As a kid, my Dad shot a BIG buck at a 10 section place in Sonora. That buck had a similar wound just N of the hock, big around as a soda can. Asking our old friend Felix about the deer he said he'd be thinking about that wound every time he ate it, and we left it for the varmints. I shot a doe that ...

My boy and I are fixing to go bass fishing 2 days, then pig hunting 2.5 days, with Ruger Hunter 44 mag, a 94 in 30 - 30, 8 in Python. We got 9 pigs last year, they have had a good bit of pressure lately, might shoot a deer, too late for turkeys. Good luck with the quail hunt.

Nice shooting! I rarely hunt late season doves, never seem to see any once it rains or the weather gets cold. 1 oz loads and doves go together like biscuits and gravy.

BBQ rifle, sweet!

Our fine Governor Abbott has said, " We won't force Texas homeowners to retreat." I won't shoot anyone over a lawnmower, entering my house uninvited will get you a short meeting with a big pist off man with a shotgun, which is in accordance with the Texas law. God bless Texas, I love it here. I woul...

Millions of abortions in US equal millions of children murdered. Kamala does not call it murder she calls it "pro choice." Murdering children is the cornerstone of the Democrats platform. Over 1,00,000 abortions in US in 2011. I personally feel the opposite of "pro life" is "pro death."

Lost me with the anise seeds

another smell I cannot tolerate: magnolia flowers.
I think a recipe thread is a great idea, wish Doc Hudson still here to contribute.

As a young man I toured the USA via motorcycle a few times, and always carried a 35mm film canister full of fresh pitch. It would start good campfires with fairly wet wood. Also had half a dozen fatwood sticks as well, sure nice when a cold fellow wants a fire right now.

Piller, 70 or 80 lb Texas deer? The hill country deer are fairly small, I take it you've not hunted S or W Texas, last good deer I weighed at my place field dressed at 168 lbs. (W texas).

A good old boy, glad to hear. Glad to see you back as well Andy.

Thanks. That looks like it would make a good truck gun. Dandy for snakes with birdshot i bet. I get up to that Cabellas in Buda on occasion for dove shells.

Glock 20 (10mm) under pillow. Scott that pump looks like a hand full, what shells do you run in it?

Hard news friend. You've always been a favorite here, good luck.

More payers up tonight for your back Kid, from Texas. Hoping for the relief you need carry on for your family.

In 2010 I shot an old doe with a 30WCF using 150 Corelokt. This deer was 45 yards broad Side grazing and was hit in the neck close to her shoulders at the big vertebrae, this being my preferred shot for decades. The deer dropped like a rock as expected, but forgot to die as expected, she looked rath...

While shooting .45 ACP at cactus fruits with my boy at 21 ', a honeybee landed on a small purple thistle bud...penetration was complete. Used the same Colt to head shoot a 6' snake at 39' later that week, his head went sideways, my kind of snake.

Prayers up for you and yours Joe.

Every now and then I will see or hear of weird bullet episodes which i find interesting from an entertainment perspective. Here are two from a couple of fellows I've hunted with for many decades: A brother hunts pigs often and was unloading his .50 black powder rifle before the trip home and saw a s...

Prayers up Kid. I have prayed for your back a number of times, I'm putting you on speed dial. With us old dudes and all this back trouble, maybe we should consider a class action lawsuit. I'm seeing a design flaw and a cover up

My black gun is green, a Sig Sauer M400. It sat around for years, shot it a little with the peep and it was accurate with 77 grainers, put a scope on it and it will one hole em at 50 yards. Plan was to use for pigs, when the pig hunt showed up I took a 30 WCF and Ruger hunter 44 mag and the m400 was...

.30 WCF by a long shot. My Dad started me on it at age 12, after killing a number of deer With scoped .243 and .270, he thought the iron sights would give me more challenge and excitement for the hunt. He scored a brand new Canadian Cent. Model 26" barrel for 100 bucks. When he gave me this NIB gun,...

I see no evidence whatever of anyone claiming to be "at peace" with post election shenanigans, rather it appears to indicate being at peace with having voted "R" and love for the President and America. How do these sentiments qualify these old time Levergunners to be "The biggest P in the world?" Th...

Burying the birds?

I would think someone would organize a team of volunteers to process the extra birds and freeze em till they found folks who could use em. I have been known to bury birds...in gravy.

Leaving work on interstate in San Diego one day I looked up to see a tire coming directly towards my windshield, wobbling as it fell straight down :shock: I swerved instantly into the next lane without looking to see if it was empty, lucky it was. The tire would have killed me I think, I was going a...
