Ya Ron, I remember brunt cork, I used to have a brunt cork in my pocket all the time back then, even used a piece of a brunt stump a few times, when I forgot the cork. I had a ton of old pictures, but lost most of them in a house fire in 1979, still have a few if I can find them.
Great thread, thanks.

This one is of my best bud (gone for 5 years now and I miss him) and a bear we teamed up on. The story is in the articles and stories forum... The Bear and the Bouncing Bow

A winter Jackrabbit hunt. The temps that day were way below zero.

Ron, I saw Dan Haggerty on TV the other day.  He's on Robbie Knievel's reality motorcycle show thats been airing recently.  

I've always loved looking at pictures and this has been a real treat.  Thanks, all. RM

Guys,

Something tells me you've got a lot more of those pictures to share!  Please, keep 'em coming.  I think I may have to save and print all of them, they're so neat.

Thanks for all the great pics, guys.  I've really been enjoying them.  :thumbsup:  

This is also a great reminder to document our hunts and our lives.  :D  So remember, when you grab your bow and quiver and head out the door, grab the camera too!

John and Randy,

When you saw Dan Haggerty at the biker gathering did he look like this?

This is Nancy and I on our way home from a shoot. We stopped to eat and someone took our picture. That's a bear head helment, it get's a lot of attention.   :D

I lost most of my old pictures in a fire, but this was taken about 25 years ago, on one of my buckskinning hunts.
