This Bwana is one of the things that life is all about. I'm happy for you.

Yeah, I agree bogie. I remember it like yesterday when I was 12 and went out hunting with my dad, always a good time. :-) I'm going to give him until he is at least 14 until I take him out elk hunting. Where I go, you have to be in darn good shape and be able to walk all day with a gun. I don't think he is ready for that at this point. I also want to teach him a few more things in the event he ever gets lost before we hit an area that hardcore.

I wish I was your son and you could take me on my first elk hunt. :-) I was 14 when my Dad took me on my first hunt. He built a double decker stand for us. This was many, many years ago. He found a tree that had limbs designed for kind of bunk bed stands. He put me up high and he sat below me. The stand consisted of split rails (that he split) layed across limbs sticking out from the tree trunk. I chewed my first tobacco on the hunt and kept spitting to the ground. My Dad finally grabbed my ankle (which was hanging about eye level to him) and informed me of a deers capabilities of smell. He also informed me that everytime I spit, I was splashing him. I killed a doe that year.

You've got Nothing to offer this thread but to be an argumentative Rutt, you lop eared sow. Go stuff a Yugo in your hatchet wound.

wow, just wow. not sure this one is warrented, but then, I don't know the entire history.

happy birthday Bwana- May your next kill put you in the recordbook.
[Reply]

:-) Agree totally. C4M is the cumb dunt who stuck her nose into the middle of a thread and accused me of disparaging a certain Planet member's mother who had recently passed.

When I denied it and challenged the skank to show me where I had made such a statement it's reply was: " Oh I might have made a mistake, I don't care to go back and look".

May your feminine itch powder turn to paste from the fumes exuding from that unwashed and unwanted slophole gaping from under your couch-ridden girth.

A MESSAGE FROM THE RURAL MIDWEST

Because of misunderstandings that frequently develop when Easterners and
Californians cross states such as Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, (Careful, it might be a Blue State) Missouri, Illinois,
Indiana, North Dakota, and South Dakota; those states' Tourism Councils
have adopted a set of information guidelines. In an effort to help
outsiders understand the Midwest, the following list will be handed to
each driver entering the state:


1. That farm boy standing next to the feed bin did more work before
breakfast than you do all week at the gym.

2. It's called a 'gravel road'. No matter how slow you drive, you're
going to get dust on your Navigator. I have a four-wheel drive because
I need it. Drive it or get it out of the way.

3. We all started hunting and fishing when we were seven years old. Yeah,
we saw Bambi. We got over it.

4. Any references to "corn fed" when talking about our women will get you
whipped... by our women.

5. Go ahead and bring your $600 Orvis Fly Rod. Don't cry to us if a
flathead catfish breaks it off at the handle. We have a name for those
little trout
you fish for...bait.

6. Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot.

7. If that cell phone rings while a bunch of mallards are making their
final approach, we will shoot it. You might hope you don't have it up
to your ear at the time.

8. That's right. Whiskey is only two bucks. We can buy a fifth for what
you paid in the airport for one drink.

9. No, there's no "Vegetarian Special" on the menu. Order steak. Order it
rare. Or, you can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the two pounds of
ham and turkey.

10. If you bring Coke into my house but it better be brown, wet, and
served over ice.

11. So you have a sixty thousand dollar car you drive on weekends. We're
real impressed. We have quarter of a million dollar combines that we
use two weeks a year.

12. Let's get this straight. We have one stoplight in town. We stop
when it's red. We may even stop when it's yellow.

13. Our women hunt, fish, and drive trucks--because they want to. So,
you're a feminist. Isn't that cute.

14. Yeah, we eat catfish. Carp, too--and turtle. You really want sushi
and caviar? It's available at the bait shop.

15. They are pigs. That's what they smell like. Get over it. Don't like
it? Interstates 80 & 90 go two ways--Interstates 29 & 35 go the other
two. Pick one and use it accordingly.

16. The "Opener" refers to the first day of deer season. It's a
religious holiday. You can get breakfast at the church.

17. So every person in every pickup waves. It's called being friendly.
Understand the concept?

18. Yeah, we have golf courses. Don't hit the ball into the water
hazard. It spooks the fish.

19. That Highway Patrol Officer that just pulled you over for driving
like an idiot...his name is "Sir"...no matter how old he is.

Now, enjoy your visit and go home.
