But, gosh, none of those guys have scopes on their rifles. and none of them are wearing the latest camo pattern. Wonder how they ever happened to kill deer? 
PS: Bet they forgot and left their GPS's at home, too!
PPS: didn't anyone ever SMILE back then??

Yeah buddy. I can totally relate. I generally start commenting to friends, family and associates around the first week of February that its only 8 months till bow season. I try to fill up the time doing load testing, hog hunting and varmint hunting. Luckily this year I have a 7 day elk hunt scheduled for Sept. which means I will get a nine day jump on the season. I work my ass off for the first nine months out of the year so I can hunt the last three months. I mangaed to hunt about 30 days out of the +/- 60day rifle season last year.

ah, the frozen deer trick.
my old man tied an illegal field dressed doe with her back to a tree like she was sitting in a chair & left her for the night. Came back the next day & took Mrs perma sit to his big tilt bed equipment truck, put a big hooded orange parka on her & sat her upright in the passenger seat with the parka hood up covering her snout.
He stopped at a filling station to put fuel on & the atendent at the station pointed at "the guy in the truck" & said "he sure looks cold" Dad replied, "yeah, he's froze pretty solid" Paid for his gas & finished the trip home.

Grogel - when I posed the question it was based on the size of the deer. They were large enough I thought they might have come from the north country. Also thought the initial group of pictures might have been from old family album.
Now I understand the common thread.
I notice the one picture mentions Riggall. Would this have been Bert Riggall who I believe was an early Alberta hunter of note?

southtexas, they didn't need camo in those days because everything was in black and white...

I figured that the Riggall photo was the name of the photography studio. But Its hard to say. That is one of my favorite photos.
