    When did you know a hunting partner wasn’t going to last? I’ll go first…

    When did you know a hunting partner wasn’t going to last? I’ll go first…

    With over 60 years of taking people hunting, this one tops the list when he was asked to pay his share of the weeks food bill, he responded..........."when you're invited on a hunt it does not cost you anything".

    Steve McQueen night on TCM

    Nick87, watch the "Great Escape" where he did the motorcycle riding, a great movie. A doctor friend of mine's dad was a co-pilot and his B-17 was shot down over Germany in WWll. He was in the same stockade two months after the escape and brought back implements/tools made to dig a tunnel...

My dad bought it new, if I remember right Redfield purchased Kollmogen and he sent it to them in the early 60's to have a new end lens...

    Tick removal..............A friend took out his wallet and used two credit cards held like playing cards with the tick in the V. With slight pressure he removed the tick in a few minutes!

    Cow elk rifle

    In my post #21 I was referring to the OP's #1 post in which his question was on two rifles and ammo. I was thinking of those rounds when I goofed and typed "any" which should have been either. The first sentence in post #22 is the point I was trying to make.
