    Snake Huntin

    Found this picture the other day, brought back many memories of my younger years. My dad was working the Fielder Hill ranch in southern New Mexico. Had some cattle, raised some milo maize and killed rattlesnakes. Caliche clay God forbidden, malapai rock, rattlesnake infested land. He was insistant on keeping his ditches weed free to try and make it less attractive to rattlers. This particular snake was my Dad's all time prize snake, to put it in Dad's words, "The biggest rattlesnake I ever want to see." I am 4 years old in the picture. The truck in the back was the first truck I ever got to drive, stick shift. I was 8 years old, my Dad put the truck in 1st gear and told me to drive to the end of the pasture, turn the key off, and get out and open up the gate for the cows we were moving. Ah, the good ol days I wish I coulda raised my kids on the Fielder Hill ranch..........

    Off topic but not really.....just got done reading a write up on Willie Nelson... Willie came home late one night drunk and passed out on the bed. His wife sewed him up in the top sheet, beat him with a broom and drove off with the kids.......... There is definitely alot of trouble for those who spend time in the limelight..................Willie turned 80 on the 30th of April......old fart....

    Open Weekend Luck

    Cole and I drew general hunt 27 turkey and had a chance to get out opening weekend. Cole killed a tom two years ago with a shotgun and had comitted to taking one with his bow this year. I had my doubts as I am not that great at calling those buggers in. We missed opening morning but got out first day evening. We thought we had put a tom to bed Friday evening up on top of a ridge close to a water tank. We thought we had it all planned out for the next morning. Got in there early next morning set up a couple of homemade decoys, did an occasional cluck.......nothing. Nothing all morning long. Decided to go check an area where we have seen mid day turkeys in the past.........nothing..... Cole asks me......so what do you do when they won't come in to the call??? He got spoiled two years ago on the early youth hunt where we had toms going crazy and he killed. Not really knowing how to answer that question I told Cole, you get out there and just start slow walking, really slow. Cluck every once in a while to see if something will answer. We had lots of sign, good water and good feed. I knew there were turkey in there, they just were not talking. We dropped Cole off, arranged a meeting spot to meet up about a mile away, my wife and I were going to do the same thing from a different direction. I was not in any hurry, we got Daisy roped off between two trees, food and water, she hates being left behind. We start up the ridge when all the sudden I see movement up ahead, I get my wife to crouch down with me. I glass ahead, dang, two coyotes headed our way through the thick trees. I dig out a coyote call and start squawking.......I am not going to pass up the opportunity to call one in especially with Daisy tied up behind me. Sat about 10 minutes....no coyote but all sudden I hear a loud yelp to the south of us......what the heck was that??? Wait a little longer..............DAD..........What??? DAD, is there a lost kid out there??? We stand up and I start glassing below.........DAD again........Dang there is a lost kid down there.....wait......I think it is Cole..............Yep it is Cole........and that dang kid has a bird hanging over his back...........WHAT THE HECK.....are you kidding me???? Impossible.......... This dang kid caught this tom sleeping I swear, shot him at 20 yards bird down. Every time I leave him alone he comes up big. I asked Cole how it happened......I was just walking along real slow....clucking like you said, came around a bush and there he was.......put the range finder on him and took the shot.

    I picked up some two part epoxy last night at Wally World.......went through the self check out, had to get clearance from the cashier.....18 or older required. Not sure what 2 part epoxy has in it. Last year trying to buy marbles.....sent my 14 year old in to get them, he had to have an adult with him because the marbles came from the "sporting goods" department. We are already neck deep in this type of governing.....getting cooked like the frog in the pot...................

    Question of the Day

    Nobody likes it most of us hate what happens to innocent people in killings and bombings, but if we throw away a justice system then we take steps backwards. What needs to happen is a cleansing of the justice system.....and I am guessing there is only one who will ultimately clean that mess up........
