Sorry I just checked back in on this thread. He found the Indian in the late 80's on their 200,000 acre+ family ranch in presidio county. If you've ever lived in far west Texas you would believe it. The Family is one of the oldest and largest ranching families in West Texas I'm sure the have plenty of friends in high places.

Years ago I was walking a property in SE OK with the land owner. He showed me an old 55 gallon drum up in the woods. It had ax marks in it from Prohibition days. Part of an old still.

You've got to get pics of this for the THF gang! That's amazing!

I wish I could but I'm never at the headquarters anymore. I'll snap a picture next time I'm there

I found a full case of extremely old dinamite that was swetting like crazy in an old abandoned barn. Told the landowner and he did not know about it and he had owned the property ten years. Called the closest military base and they sent a demolition team to get and despose of it.

Kind of depends on the girls too doesn't it? Reminds me of the phrase, "Bumpin' Uglies."

The most memorible find of mine was on a fishing trip at a family lakehouse.

I was standing on the dock one night fishing and got a decent bite. Reeling the guy in I thought it would be a big one. Turned out it was a smaller catfish weaving his way around the armrest of a really fancy chair at the bottom of the lake. We cleaned the chair off and left it on the dock as a place to sit while fishing.

It was probably close to 20 years ago and me and a buddy were scouting type II land out in east Texas. We had hunted public land before so we knew we had to get as deep in as possible. So we were pretty deep in the woods and we came across 2 or 3 different colored wires hanging from a really tall pine. As best as we could tell, there was a small grey box attached to them way up in that tree. We both pulled and pulled on those wires trying to get whatever was up there down. No luck. While messing with the wires we saw that they were long enough for the other end to be under the dirt/leaves that were on the ground. We pulled that wire up for I don't know how many yards and never got to the end. It drives me crazy to this day not knowing what that was and how it got there. Did it fall from the sky? Start out at ground level and just grow with the tree? Oh, this was years before the space shuttle accident.

Was this by Karnack by chance?

While hunting snakes years ago up on the border, I found a live hand grenade right after a rain. Told the land owner he said he had to call Camp Seal in OK and have someone come down and destroy it. Come to find out the area I was walking across was an old POW camp during WW 2 and the military dug a hole and dump all kinds of live ord in it. He ask me not to go it the pasture. He also ask me never tell any one where the pasture is.

No. It was either in Anderson County or down on the Moore Plantation near Pineland. I used to hunt both and can't remember which it was.

Good reading. Wish I could find cool stuff. Only thing I have found was my cell phone I dropped on my way in and didn't know I lost it till I patted my pocket to call my brother and it wasn't there!

Found a teddy bear, women's high heeled shoes and a moonshine shack on our property that sets in a deep thicket way off the the freeway

Last year, during the drought, my son tripped over a rock that was on a trail to the "kids blind"...60yrds from the feeder.

Anyway, that rock was actually an old ax head that you can tell was hand forged. I kept it and have never seen another like it.

I've got nothing, maybe a few sheds that's it.

My FIL found an old Indian bowl made out of stone and the grinder that sat in the bowl about 15 years ago while hunting.

When I was a kid in Arkansas, my brother and I explored every chance we could. We found an old cemetary in the middle of the woods (probably 2 miles from the nearest road) while deer hunting, an old well with stone walls, a pot field, complete really old stone standing fireplace with no building whatsoever.

Anyone found anything cool since bow season started?

I found an old rusted out goat bell!

Know someone who owns some land on a lake. Last year during the drought found some copper wire in the ground about 20 yards out into where the lake shoudl've been No telling how long it is or what its attatched to, but they hooked it up to the jeep and pulled for about 30 yards and then it just stuck and wouldnt come up.

Earlier this year on Safari we encountered a deadly spitting cobra in africa mistake and things went horribly wrong. watch video- Spitting cobra spits man in the face on youtube.

Are you sure that wasn't a state bat house? I've seen one similiar in East Texas.

I just read through 45 pages and now dont know what to do with myself. Our old property had a model T with a giant oak growing through the middle of it, my best friends mom has a picture of it in her house. We have an old cemetary down the road from our ranch now, used to take girls out there on the gator in high school . Havent really found anything cool hunting, just a bleached out cow skull while pheasant hunting and carried the stupid thing all day. Its hanging in my workshop now.

I didn't find this, my grandfather did, He wasn't hunting but going to work. He used to work as a ranch hand at a ranch between Yancey and Moore Tx and when getting to work early one morning right at the gate enterance to the ranch he and another ranch hand found the body of a woman who had been murdered. I don't know if they ever found the killer as my grandfather never really spoke often of this, I only found out later when my father had told me about it.

found the keys to my blind and camper on the ground. still dont know how they fell out of my pocket
