Its the same as here. I read that thread and thought I would post the question here to see what the fellers here have found. Its just so cool to hear these stories.

i have never found anything but this is a cool post even though we have no photos of the girls.

While hunting on Ft. Benning, GA I found the fuselage of a jet, several rusted out vehicles and a clip for a 742 with .30-06 ammo still in it. At a lease we had in Upshur county my uncle and I found an old farming tool you pull by horse(not sure of the name of it) and my wife swears there was an old graveyard there because of how the rocks were laid on top of a hill.

50-70s throckmorton/ haskell line , case of old dynamite,airplane prop, granite monument to young man drug to death by team of green mules, new mexico old belt bowie knife, spoons, plate. colorado winchester action barrel, partial skeleton, dallas trinity bottoms 2dead guys, 2 guns, 1 dead guy no gun.

I have found a arrow head, and a big ole fixed blade buck knife still in its leather sheath! The sheath was all rotted, but the knife is still good!

Also found a few round iron balls about the size of a big marble! I have no idea what they are!

Well, dang. I hope to never find anything like that. I found an animal skull today, probably a possom's, and I'm planning to bleach it since it was almost whole and has most of its teeth.

The only thing Ive found, besides the usual old farm house foundations and such was a line of clothes headed toward denton creek, they had been there a while. Wonder what they wore when walking out?

Tbar

Wow Tbar! Is that thing still running? Yall using it? Location?

we have an old pump jack that lloks similiar to that^^

My brother bought a piece of hunting ground that had an old barn on it that was about to collapse. We decided just to burn it, but he wanted to go through it to see if there was any antiques laying around yet. He didn't find anything but as an afterthought took the old door latches off. Stamped on the back of the latches were swastikas. He did a little research and it turns out when the socialists took over the German government in the 30's some of the exports at the time had the official nazi stamp.

As a kid out quil hunting I use to find the giant pentrified shells that they now sell for over 100.00 each. I just gave them away to friends and family. Whoever wanted one. I bet I had to have given away at least 200 of them. Also, found a very rusted up shotgun before.

Out duck hunting my dad and I also found a nest of barn owls in the duck blind once. We called the GW and they came out and got them.

Those are a dime a dozen up here in Jack Co. and everywhere around it. Most are still in use, and are part of the landscape just as the trees are.

I was hunting in the National Forest once when I found this guy who had been lost for a week because someone removed his reflective trail markers, making it impossible for him to find his way out. With no compass or sense of direction to guide him, he had been walking helplessly in circles, stopping only to eat wild berries and drink creek water, even though he was less than 100 yards from the road.

Did you admit that you were the one that removed his trail markers? Did he then apologize for being so ignorant of the ways of the woods and immediately sign up at the nearest Grizzly Adams school?

Are you kidding? He was so glad to see another human being, he wouldn't leave my sight. I had to lead him back to his truck just so I could go back into the woods and continue my hunt.

While I was pheasant hunting in KS last weekend I found a mule deer in high crp grass. It had been dead about a week, was an 11 pt that our guide said would go 170+. He said he knew the GW real well and if we reported it he would give us a carcass tag and I could take the head with me. So we called him out, but when he saw what it was it all changed. He said he couldnt be contributing to these poachers, and sawed the head off and took it with him, he wouldnt even let us take a picture of it after he got there. So much for trying to do the right thing. i bet he is gonna have a nice mount on his wall.

I was moose hunting in alaska last year on the Melozitna River. No guide, no nothing. Me and my buddy were floating the river in a raft and were stopping at oxbow lakes to check for moose. We popped out of the river bottom to check this one oxbow, and found ourself in an old trappers camp.

There was a old log cabin with an earthen roof and dog sleds, old snow mobile parts, a fleshed out grizzly hide. as we made our way through the camp, we realized part of it was kinda new. We opened a door and saw a gas lamp burning inside. No one was around, but we lit out in a hurry.

We didn't want to be the two Texas boys that pissed off some local Eskimo trappers and ended up buried in the tundra!

I found an old us postal service saddle bag down in a gully in jack county

We hunt a place outside Comstock a couple times a year and that place is an unusual thing gold mine. The two coolest things that we have found was an old artillery training range for WWII and a half of a prop plane.

The area of the ranch that the artillery range was on is covered in .50cal cases, steel cores, separated jackets, intact bullets and occasionally intact ammo. On top of a hill about 500yrds away there is a dump truck load of .50 BMG cases, must be the firing line. At the impact site there are old farm implements, cars, trucks, and other equipment used for target practice. Littered all over the impact zone are pieces of exploded bombs (we guess they are mortars), but it is really cool to find intact ones. Last year we spent an afternoon walking around down there and found several that we brought home.

Last year when we were there we were driving around on the last day and found half a plane by the edge of a ravine, first we found a wing and farther over the edge we could see part of the fuselage. We know for sure that it wasn’t there the year before because that is where we hunt rams, so we told the land owner. She said drug runners are always crashing around that area and would call the BP and sheriff. It will be interesting to go back this year and find out what came out of that.

Oh and the Devil’s river runs through it, on the cliffs at the river there are Indian drawings on the rocks, too cool.

I don’t know exactly what they are but they make a heck of a paper weight, AND toe smasher.

That looks like something that might have been used back during WWII to train Air Force pilots and navigators. Not wanting to drop actual bombs, a member of the crew might drop one of those from a very low elevation. My dad recalled the time he dropped a small sack of flour from a B-25 for that same purpose. It accidently hit a guy who happened to be standing atop a tank. (The Army Air Corp and Army were under the same branch of the service back then.) I remember my dad telling me how the bag rolled that guy right off the top of the tank and may have damn near killed him. No question what you found would have.

I would have probably called the authorities over this one.

I was thinking the same thing.

These are cool stories. Makes me want to go to the ranch in sanderson just to go looking for things. The owner has TONS of arrowheads that he has found out there.
