Leaving for mountains of New Mexico tomorrow night. Stated convocation of Camp Ironsights all week! Plenty old wore out iron and wood to be tested and shot!!!
I'll try to get snap a few photos!!! Be back in a week!
The elusive and enigmatic "Wifey" I occasionally refer to! Here we are last Friday morning. We are headed afield on a hunt!!!!! This is a big thing for her as she has not been away from our house ( except at hospital)for an overnighter in 4 years!! This was her first trip out!!!!
Oh, well done Renault. I'm not sure I'll get out for a hunt this year but next? Canada geese and pheasant beware! I have a new dog, a standard poodle puppy who shows remarkable promise. We shall see . . .
Yeah, and you don't have to wonder what you're going to do with a whole elk. I shot a bison one year and it took my late wife and I over a year to eat it even though we gave gobs of it away. A quail or two I can eat by myself.
Oh! Elk is cut up or ground up and in the freezer. 91 lbs hamburger, 30 lbs pan sausage and a bunch of steaks!!!! I know what's gonna happen to it. Once my little Carnivore grandchildren get ahold of it! . They love it!!!
Been busy with all the things that make life
so dang interesting. Did manage to get to the south Texas place for a quick and quiet retreat. No quail anywhere, Sarge! Too many hogs!! Think they've done a number on the population. But I did score a nilgai cow with the 9.3x62.
Hogs are tough, and always on the move. Suddenly this past year we've started seeing sign, and spotting hogs closer and closer to Alpine. Working their way over ranches and farms.
I hate to sound unsympathetic but we've had that problem in California for about three hundred years. Fortunately they haven't shown up in Oregon . . . yet!
