Another look at the "Clear fork" of the Brazos river(must have been someone with a sence of humor that named it
)
•
Where the boys found the snakes...that's a story best left to Sky, Chase, Joe, and Chris....they found them while Don and I were out getting "chocolate covered"....
•
A good look at the trade blanket/swap and sell table. Good fun!

Gene doing his best "tuff guy" look...

Getting to share a camp with Gene and Barry was an all time thrill for me as well....
I like Don, have been a huge "fan" of these 2...I also saw the Classic Whitetail tour at least 3 times I believe, bought Bowhunting October Whitetails the second it was available way back when.
A few years back I had the opportunity to sit down and talk to Gene for quite a while when he came to the NYB banquet. Since then we've shared many e mails and pix. But this would be the first time I'd meet Barry.....
What great guys! So much fun, and so many hunting experiences and stories to tell. The humor is non-stop....The week went way too fast.
The one part of the trip that was a little different than I thought it would be was the fact that we'd all not be together in one place camping/staying. But the weather was responsible for that I guess.
Thomas, Kevin, and Steve were in a cabin 12 miles away inside the ranch, and Gene and Barry, were about half way between in the house that Lambshead gave them to stay in.
With better weather, it would have been great to have a campfire every night, with all that wanted to hang out till it was time to drift off to hog heaven...
With the weather we had....there was only 1or 2 nights that were even fit to be outdoors around the fire......mother nature is cruel!!!!
