It sells for about twenty bucks and it is all good. I just thought I would share this with all of you for an improvement on your GPS's. Good luck ...

Re: Notable Quotes....

If sentimentalists were right, hunting would develop in man a cruelty of character. But I have found that it inculcates patience, demands discipline and iron nerve, and develops a serenity of spirit that makes for a long life and a long love of life.

If there is a sacred moment in the ethical pursuit of game, it is the moment you release the arrow or touch off the fatal shot.

Re: Notable Quotes....

A hunter should never let himself be deluded by pride or false sense of dominance. It is not through our power that we take life in nature; it is through the power of nature that life is given to us.

. . . what a good huntsman should be: he should be young, strong active, bold and enterprising; fond of diversions and indefatigable in the pursuit of it; he should be sensible and good-tempered; he also ought to be sober; he should be exact, civil and cleanly; he should be a good horseman and a ...

Re: Notable Quotes....

I never voyaged so far in all my life. You shall see men you never heard of
before, whose names you don’t know, going away down through the meadows
with long ducking guns, with water—tight boots, wading through the fowl
meadow grass, on bleak wintry, distant shores, with guns at half—cock;
and they ...

Notable Quotes....

They may be at a loss for proper words to describe a beautiful woman,
but they can eloquently describe the voice of their hounds
in words that other hunters can understand and appreciate.
The music of a pack of hounds in full cry is a spine—tingling,
heart—warming experience that lives in the ...

Re: Utah Bear Hunt-11

Thanks...This year my father and I's first experience rigging bears in Utah. We finally put one in a tree with a lot of help from Rick and Bruce. We got whipped-off several times. Those bears in Utah are nastier than the ones in New Mexico!
