Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Significance of your campfire login name?

It's my initials and my badge number. I've had the initials for 51 years and the badge number for almost 26 years.

I am a Breton from Brittany, Brittany. "Peau rouge" is a nickname among ourselves, we don't see the sun very much over there...
But it's ok I'm a Husker now.

It is what it is... about all I've been using in the field for the last 15 years or so, either a drilling or a shotgun/rifle o/u.

Mine is my Alaska license plate number. Also the rifle I carry

It was my sons. I was with him when he shot his first turkey. Since that time, he and I have shared many many turkey hunts and both have shot our share. Well he has grown and left home and we do not do near enough together anymore. I STOLE his handle and use it everywhere I can. It's here, on eBay, on CGN, and a couple ice fishing sites. Everytime I type it I think of him and how very much I miss him. He is really the king of whatever he does, not me. But there you have it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I have always been facinated by deer with droptines so I just started using it a long time back.

I do all my hunting riding mules. Have been for 30 + years and I have rode for over 50 years. Took the name when CB's were all the rage, and just stuck with it. Any greenhornthat hunts with me alwasy asked me why I don't get saddlesore. Guess I'm just use to it . I always figured that if God wanted you to walk and carry things oyour back, He would not have invented stirrups and pack saddles

My wife give me the name....not sure why?

No imagination required for mine. I used to have sevral at different websites. I can remember this one My first name (Martin)and the initials of the company I work for (BNS).

When I was a kid I had to buy all of my own shells for hunting. Learned very quickly to "make the first shot count". Still have to buy my own shells.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> and still believe in making every shot count.

I joined up here when shooters.com folded and it must have been about the time the Supreme court ruled against Texas in Lawrence vs Texas. The nest day I drove over to Gettysburg and bought two Confederate battle flags. One is tacked up on the side of my house. Lots of folks don't stop by much any more, and they even had some probs selling the house just down the road next door. HAH!

I ain't no racist but I DO believe in the 10th amendment. Let the sodomites in NY and CA do what they will, leave the rest of us alone.

Bron and raised in VA I was taught at an early age that only tyranny comes from north of the Potomac. Now I live there. ARggggggggg! The IRONY!!!

I've averaged well over 100,000 air miles per year in my business for over 2 decades so I wanted something to relate to that. I plugged "traveler" in an on-line thesaurus and the first return was "journeyman." I then entered "journeyman" into Merriam-Webster and got "a worker who has learned a trade and works for another person usually by the day", which seemed perfect for a consulting engineer...

I think this explains mine. They are my passion.

Hey...ain't that a scene from one of them Alien sci-fi flicks?

jackfish, I tried to do this once, hit some damn key and lost the whole thing. It will probably show up partically done. I just wanted to say that I was glad to see someone out there who realizes the value of a true game fish. I love catching them! The big ones swim away again, but the small ones hit the pan. I think that they are just as good a walleye (do you think I will be struck down for that?) and would rather clean one anyday than a walleye with those tough ribs.

I am kind of posting late to this thread but hear it is anyhoo.
I partake in a cigar every so often. So I took a the name of a fav for a handle. Use it on a few trad archery sites and a some others as well.

I live on the coastal plain of southeast Georgia, about 50 mi. WNW of Savannah, and grew up in and around the small black water rivers of the area, particularly the Ogeechee (pronounced just like it's spelled). When I decided to quit using my real name and take a handle, it was just the logical thing for me to choose.

I know you guys who've spent time at Ft. Stewart learned to hate the place, or at least its bugs and biting stuff, like the snakes, but .... well, it's a darn fine place for a boy to grow into a man. You Ft. Stewart guys were pretty busy, but if you'd had time to mess around the rivers and creeks and surrounding country, try to catch rattlers from gopher turtle holes - or hunt foxes that take up residence in them - and dabble around the creeks with a screen wire net stretched over a flexible limg, finding strange stuff like little Johnny Darter and Pirate Perch fish you never knew were there, and a jillion other things, you'd love that black water, too. Haven't found a sasquatch yet, but I keep looking. Heard a Whumpus Kitty once. Real close. TOO dang close! It didn't sound really contented, so I guess it hadn't been eating Carnation's cows???? Dang fine place to discover the mysteries that lie all around us, that we never realize were there until we go a'plundering about .... like kids tend to do. Never even came close to getting snakebit until I got older, and "knew all about them." Funny how that works, ain't it?
