My first and only Mule Deer, taken in Southern WY. A long stalk that ended when my hunting buddy and I took two bucks that were sleeping in the sun after a busy morning of taking care of the ladies. Couldn't hardly wake them up. Buddy shot his while he was in his bed, I took this one as he got up. The entire shoot took about 4 seconds.

Celtic cross I dug up on the internet, a small testimony of my own beliefs and an homage to my Scottish and Irish ancestors.

I wrote my name on my truck so I'd know it was mine. Also, I kan't spill goud.

Favorite bird to watch. These swallow-tailed kites catch bugs on the wing and can they ever fly. Kind of rare too.

I chose the famous artwork "Cow Eating Grass" since I like the idyllic setting.

A picture of a Savage 1899 I have that has a factory original Birds Eye Maple stock tucked in a Caribou's antler I shot up near the Hudson Bay in Canada. (With a different gun)

That is freaky. I am curious if anyone can get it to reverse.

My avatar is a pic of me with one of the black bears I killed in the Blue Mountains of SE WA state. I used my Ruger Bisley 45 Colt on this one.

It's a painting by Charles M. Russell entitled "Cowboys around the Campfire at Night".
If you look closely you'll see a bunch of cowboys smoking and drinking coffee after a supper of bacon and beans. It's an homage to friendly campfires everywhere.

My heeler that passed several years ago, Peyton. Most heelers are remarkable but this one had two days that were special.
He was very afraid of lightning but during an electrical storm on Pikes Peak he charged back up above treeline, despite his own fear, to 'herd' the slow hikers down.
During a drought in Kansas a corporate convoy was departing one of the only huntable fields. Their guide/handler said 'Don't even bother, We just covered that field with the best dogs in the country." Peyton put up 2 roosters from that field and I made the shots. Sounds like a special dog, if you’re lucky to have one, you never forget what they could do. 😎

Mine is a photo of a Pachmayr Signature model 1911 made in the mid 1970's. I started working with them on this model a few months later. It still shoots under an inch at 25 yards.

All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

That’s Joe with my uncle’s ginormous underwear the night before a sea duck hunt. LMAO! Poor Joe! agreed  Now I know the story. Geno
