HC Hunt Camp
« on: September 03, 2018, 03:11:59 PM »
The Hawk is in the air. At least it is in the Arizona Mountains. Cant get my mind off of hunting. Spent an hour trying to find a rifle photo I mislabeled. In my search I came across this photo.  Just made my yearning for the hunt even stronger.

These are the "Curlew KY Long hunters"
I'm the Q tip in the middle.
What's your favorite camp photo?

You would think Indiana would be able to field two or three teams. It was hard enough to get five guys to show up, when the forma was changed to 5 man teams. I missed it last year was having cataract surgery.  I might be able to make it as an alternate. Been going there since the year it was held at Sparta.

All my pics  of me looking like that were taken on real film, long before digital cameras were invented. ;) Now I'm too busted up to do that sort of thing.

Maybe some of us in our 7th or 8th decade should have a get together.  Be historically correct - show up alive!  And hopefully go home the same way.
Maybe I can teach my 9 year old GREAT-grandson how to load for me.  He is pretty quick, so he can also do the retrieving of targets!

Very nice photo! Tough looking group of “good ole boys”. Wish I had more photos from my younger days before cell phones and “selfies”. Love the homespun garb. Good times with good friends and kindred spirits make good memories. Thanks so much for sharing.

Buck Creeks Fall Rendesvous is coming up the weekend of the 15th and 16th of Sept. Dave moved it because its so !@*%&@ hot there on labor day. Unfortunately I will be on the road that weekend. Though I'm trying to talk my boss into leaving a few days earlier.
