Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Texas, the greatest state, and why.

I've been known to swill a cheap one now and then. Stop by on the way to Roger's.

Yeah, but it could get expensive in the food dept if Jim stayed around very long.

Now that's what I'm talking about! 270? If not what was used on that awesome critter?

270 with a tasco scope lmao. we bought that gun for 200 about 20 yrs ago. never have toached the scope. i've killed a lot of stuff with it.

Those were the good ADLs! Very nice!

I’ll volunteer to be the designated driver to take y’all three to the Bar. Should be well worth the entertainment value! 😁

Uber, you can drink too!

It takes about twelve shots of tequila to get me to dance, Neal. They tell me it's worth it, but I dunno. I was never there when it happened.
🤔

Only Texans can shoot good enough to kill stuff with a 270.

Booyah! +1

I had a decent job offer in Dallas a few years ago. I also had a slightly lower offer in MT. Super glad I picked MT..

BTW I get a kick out of the Muslim's in Upper MI comment. I lived there for 20 years and I cant remember if I saw a single one.

They wear disguises.

My 270 wears a Nikko Sterling.

Fancy.

I'd have done the same, and even gave Montana a go back in 92. Tough place to make a living in those days.

Hamtramck is about as far away from Upper MI as you can get and still remain in the state.
The vast majority of Muslims in the state living in the Detroit area, which is an 8 hour ride from where I lived in Upper MI.

Montana is still a tough place to make a decent living. Billings is about the only city in the state that has decent wages due to the fact it has three oil refineries.

This thread has been very entertaining. The video in the OP is embarrassing and immediately brought to mind a quote from Dennis Miller about social media: “Never have lives less lived been more chronicled“.

Texas isn’t for everyone and that’s okay. I find it amusing when people trash Texas. Native Texans, and I’m a native, are generally proud to be such and are prone to boasting about it. I know it can be tiresome but I’d rather be that way than the alternative - ashamed. My maternal grandfather was a decent size rancher so I obviously grew up hunting. My father’s family is seriously backwoods Cajun from Port Arthur and growing up crabbing and fishing at Pleasure Island, fishing for bull reds at The Cut when they were running, flounder gigging and seining between High Island and Rollover Pass are memories I wouldn’t trade for anything.

Trash Texas all you want, it doesn’t anger me, it makes me laugh.

Obviously...
