Van, you have posted some great shots of your family and friends on this thread, but that last one is outstanding. Those kids had a great mentor in your father. The fact that some of them still shoot and even hunt is a testimony to his effort.

Hi Ron, that's an incredible painting, it surely does you justice.
Thanks for the information, I found that part of the American and Canadian history very intresting.
as the men who re-enact that time, those men were made of steel.

Cody, are you an old f@rt? Gotta be an old f@rt to post your younger-days stuff here. Modern shooting pics can go to the Shooter's Forum, under "Pics of the Week" at the top of the page.

Well, I wasnt even into shooting when this thread was started, other than shooting when i was a kid,I just sat in front of the puter all morning looking at the pictures posted here.It is incredible to see such a wonderful record of the history of this sport. I just got my 5 year old son into shooting and this thread has impressed on me the importance of taking pictures to document the passing of time and the memories made. EXCELLENT Job to all of you who posted!! Appreciate the time you spent. Now I gotta go get some eye drops, i think my eyes are stuck from looking at this screen for so long..

Who in their right mind would aspire to be old???

IB · « **Reply #516 on:** February 27, 2006, 12:20:00 PM »

Now I ain't buying into this "OLD DUFFER" stuff but a couple of photos from the 1900s. The first is not far from Rich Bakers in OR.

This one is of a painting of me a bit older, that now hangs in the Hall of Justus in DC

please enjoy........vance

Ron,

70 years qualifies you for the young side of old, so don't feel bad. Besides our buddy Greg says you did a great job cooking that venison loin a couple of nights ago (rare and without flour), so I guess you still can learn some new tricks. "[laffsmyl]"

I found this picture in an old box after my dad died. It was taken on July 30, 1953, my 7th birthday. Dad got me a new bow and some arrows to help take care of the rabbit problem in his "Victory Garden." He still called it that even though mom was the one taking care of the garden while he was over seas in the Navy during WWII. By fall, the rabbits had taken a serious hit, as had my arrows. I can still hear dad telling me, "Those arrows cost $.35 apiece at the hardware!" Yep, cedar with real barred feathers. Now one feather cost more! Brings back some good memories.
