Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Kevin Costner - Hunting Speech

a lot of these game reserve type bird places are awful expensive in my opinion. I've got one damn near my backyard literally like two and a half miles away. and the prices I'm pretty sure I can make a decent trip to South Dakota other than a two day hunt at one of them that was kind of nice..

Should have punched him in the throat. Then explained the world to him, while he was choking!!

Costner is an actor , quite a good one, ....he is always acting.

I sure don't need him to be able to understand my feelings .

About as good as Pence.

I deal with all kinds of ppl day to day the schit I’ve heard would blow ur mind I just nod my head get paid and leave 🤣

Nice speech.

It’s what actors do for a living.

Thanks for proving my point.

He know where his bread is buttered and is playing to the right crowd. He is not going woke and broke.

You 2 should gather gheyghost for a train

You never saw Stephanie. Lived in my Dorm in '91. Mind blowing.

The nix on BB guns was because The Old Man had an auto salvage. A BB will cause a little spall, which will usually crack the glass.
A .22 bullet would cause enough damage to know where it come from!😀
But like I said, from the time I demonstrated that I could be trusted, I was allowed to shoot. I can remember saving up my pennies and allowance to buy 50 rounds of .22. Heck, I think it was half a buck or 60 cents. Most always gone by the afternoon or next day.
It was used in Dave’s old Glenfield, I think model 58. Copy of a Marlin, used the same 7 round clip.
As I said, Dave was sometimes a bad influence on me. We both loved guns and shooting. Dad always thought of a gun that was a tool used for hunting. If Dave bought a new gun, Dad would bitch to me. If I bought another gun l, he’d bitch to Dave!😀
He bought me my first deer rifle when I was 14. A 788 Remington in .308.
Dave had a press, so I got a set of dies and started on my handloading career at age 14. Killed my first buck, a spike, with a 180 grn Nosler outta that gun.
Quite a few others until I got married and joined the Army!
I’ve told this story before on the ‘fire. While I was away, Dad started using and fell I love with that rifle. He was pretty attached to a 336 Marlin in .30-30, but that.308 he really liked.
When I got out, I bought myself a Ruger 77 in oughtsix. Dad used that 788 unit he died 25 hunting seasons later. Killed a 7 point with it at 87 years old!
When it finally came back to me, I can tell you, I cried. I still load for it, and I drag it out a day or two in honor of my Dad. It’s still a freaking shooter 😀
But back to my original thoughts. I think God Himself is a hunter at heart. There’s no other way to explain that bond between hunters, family or friends, even our dogs hold a love that is far deeper than I can explain as a mortal.
I can’t tell you how enjoyable it is to recall these things. Allergy provoking, but like I said, that hunting bond goes far deeper than I can explain.

Pix or it didn't happen

He does hunt. I have some pictures someone sent me a couple of years ago of him Goose hunting in NE Arkansas.

Good morning kolofardos, I trust you are doing great in beautiful BC.

I was looking at the picture and based on his speech, I understood why he was wearing that T-shirt.

In his speech, he did say that he made it a mission to hunt all of the "A" Places after the duck hunting incident.

As it relates to Wyoming, I am pretty sure the Cheney's have access to all of the best "A" private areas in Wyoming. One way to get access to these beautiful hunting spots is to befriend the Cheney's.

I never was a big fan of Costner, in fact I have always thought that he was overrated as an actor. But I do consider him very intelligent.

So if you want access to the best "A" Hunting spots and clubs in Wyoming, you had better get in line with the Cheney's, but you don't want to go hunting with Dick lol.

One way to get to hunt the "A" places in Wyoming is to wear a T-shirt saying "I'm for Liz Cheney"

You would never get invited to the "A" Places wearing a t-shirt saying "Liz Cheney is a stupid Slut"
