Great picture!
Reminds me of one my dad had all framed up and gave to my daughter.
He said it was from the good old days.
Looks like this one is too!

Wow!!

Fantastic picture and I can tell it meant a lot to your Grandpa.That's something I wish I had, hunting pictures of my dad. He just didn't take too many back then. I have a few of him in Korea that he just found but most were lost.[&o]This is why I take as many as I can now.

Thanks for sharing Germ.

That's truly awesome Germ. I hope my grandkids can look at some of my pictures decades from now and feel the same way that you do about this one. That is what this tradition is all about...........

Those are truley tears of joy;) I wish my family had been hunters. I picked up bowhunting on my own seven years ago, wish it was when I was younger. Even though your Grandpa may not be able to get out and hunt like he use to, I can still see the passion in his eyes!!!
Thats one great pic!
Thanks for sharing!

Great pic Germ.

I use to love going through all my Gparents hunting photos and movies. Wish I could get my hands on them now and put them at my range.

Thanks for sharing that..... The red and blacks bring back some memories as well.......

Thats awesome. I have an old Carter wool jacket that belomged to my dad, and before him his uncle. I treasure it and make sure that I wear it at least once every season.

Way too cool, Gary.

I wish my family had those kinds of memories from hunting camps. But I am the first in my family to be a serious hunter. Don't really know where it came from. I just got bit by the bug a while back. I usually don't do things half way. It's all or nothing.

Hell, it brings tears to my eyes. What a great gift and keepsake. I bet he looks at it every 2 minutes. Just fantastic.

And to think... all my grand children will be able to blow up and frame are pictures of blue undies. LOL:D

Wow, that's a great picture. I often find myself staring at the countless pictures hung throughout our hunting cabin of the years gone by. It was a totally different life back then, and it makes me feel as if I'm almost there, too. Great post.

mobow 01-03-2008 05:36 PM

RE: How to bring old hunter to tears
 
And people wonder why we hunt, thinking it is only about killing animals.....How little they really know. THAT is what this is all about, right there.

Great picture. What it must have been likeback then? I still think I was born to late. I'd really like to see the original black and white asit adds a little something of the days gone by.

That's cool Germ. Nice pic. Those older pics with a bunch of gun hunters around an old vehicle are just cool. Very cool.

That's the kind of pic. they should put in a museum.. the museum of men who believed in tradition and putting dinner on the table. A museum I'd like to visit.
