No they sure don't make them like that anymore. Magnum Man


I grew up in the "Pheasant Capital of the world" and was a kid when Joe Foss and Bob Stack and the crew came to our town to hunt pheasants for the show. We were holding a field near town so if they didn't get enough birds in thier first attempts they would move to ours. About 2:30 the group said to heck with it and started hunting on our own. I guess the celebs did fine on their first place because they never showed up. It was a big deal back in the day in a town of 1300 in South Dakota.
