Great reading!!

Say what? So your neighbor has a dead indian in a coffin in his living room, with a mountain lion on top of the coffin? Did I read that right?

That is amazing about the indian

Some awesome stories here. Thank's everyone for the reads.

Well not while hunting but we were doing some dozer work on one of my dads places that we had heard had an old fort or something on it back when there were indians running around. We found an old revolver on the place that was so rusted all you could see was a barrel cylinder and you could tell the hammer was cocked. The fact that the hammer was cocked leads me to believe it has a pretty interesting story.

Sorry, gotta throw the big red BS flag on that one. Especially since that would be illegal and the state wouldn't ask to buy it. They'd just confiscate it.

txshntr, you crack me up!!

wow....and I thought it was

UIBA you too dang funny bro!!!

I seen it!!! It fo' real

All those recent road trips have paid off big time with this new professional photo gig you landed. Your getting pics all over the state now.

Nice one.

Not sure if this is related but my ex mother in law is from denton near the OK border. She used to tell me stories about when she was a kid her family was very poor and the government had given them a railroad car to live in. It had no plumbing no walls or any amenities but they lived in it for several years. Strange coincidence or maybe thats what you stumbled on.

Well I've never really found anything unusual except for old bottles, arrowheads, etc but about 10 years ago we were hog dog hunting in Anahuac. We had a 1 1/2 year old black mouth cur that didn't seem really all there but we kept him around because he had a heck of a nose on him. He was so dumb that all we ever named him was Dog. When we got done hunting all the other dogs came in when we called except for this one. We waited and hollered but he never showed. We assumed a gator had gotten him. That was common in that area. About a year later, we got a call from an old rancher about a mile from where we were hunting asking if we'd lost a dog. Completely forgetting about Dog my dad told him no. The old man explained that a cur dog had wandered up to his property and had our number on his collar. It had taken a couple of months for him to get the dog to come to him because he was so skittish but he was fat and healthy. We told the rancher he was welcome to keep him if he wanted to and as far as I know, Dog lived out his life with that old guy. Funny to think that old dumb dog survived in hog and alligator infested swamp for over a year.

Thats exactly right. My wife found an Indian Skull (and other various parts) when my dads shop was being excavated. Some goody too shoes found out, called the sheriff, who came out, took possesion of everything, the county then placed the remains nearby at the request of some Indian authority.

No one bought anything, no one asked. . . they simply DID. . .

While hunting with the family we have found numerous Indian arrow heads, spear heads, and other tools.

While hunting at work I have seen: 1000's of illegal aliens, 10's of thousands of pounds of marijuana, maybe a hundred pounds of coke, guns, knives, ID cards, wallets chocked full of money, crashed cars, burglarized hunting cabins, mutilated calves and deer, poachers (yes in the act, yes I arrested them. . . no they werent happy), saved a couple of lives, had a helicopted pin people down while I rode in like the cavalry on my ATV, raided hotel rooms / houses. . . and a couple antler sheds.

Saw one of these while hunting NF outside Broken Bow in the '70s. It looked like someone's residence, and we detoured well around it. "Deliverance" was still a recent release.

Hunting I have found a few arrowheads, a couple of knives, and an ammo can that had a couple of boxes of shotgun shells and a knife in it (prolly bounced out of someones truck).

Not hunting, but just exploring and poking around old mines, I found a really cool compound gear winch that was really old (probably hooked to an engine of some kind, but the engine was not there). Old mine car tracks (but no cars), big open top metal tanks presuably for ore processing, and a huge old rock drill bit permanently embedded in a piece of rock.

That thing was like excalibur! It was in the bottom of a mine and I went back three or four times with various hamers and rock chisels to try and get it, but I could never budge it!

Dead bodies? Time for a new lease.

As a kid my grandfather took me at about 7 yrs old. As a teenager, was on a hunt with him in Westhoff Tx. He walked me thru an area where a naval jet (prob from Chase Filed in Beeville) had crashed many years ago..There were still metal remnants on the ground..It always seemed 10 deg cooler there where it had crashed.. Oh yeah...he hunted til 92 yrs old..Killed his best buck last year he hunted..

I just read all of these and its one if the best threads I've seen.

I wish I had something to contribute
