Added a little fun to a day too windy to quail hunt. We drove around and killed three hogs too with the trenty-trenty but by that time too much cold beer for photos.

Love it.


Just because you haven't been huntin' your whole life doesn't mean you don't want to spend the rest of your life huntin'.

I started keeping that old rifle in the dog box a few years ago when we had a problem with a big hog with an attitude. It’s killed a lot of varmints and hogs that we used to just pepper with bird shot.

I dumped a decent boar not too long ago with the old dirty-30. They're great guns

Have two 30-30s. One is a Glenfield 30A that my wife bought me the first Christmas after we were married (37 years ago). Lost count of the deer, hogs, rams, coons, etc that have been sent to the happy hunting grounds in the sky. Plan to use it in about two months when I do a day hog hunt there in Texas. The other is a Win 94 Top Eject my FIL gave me a few years before he passed away. My son will be coming down with me in two weeks and wants to use it on the hogs. Neither of them will leave the family after I pass.

I killed my first whitetail buck while hunting by myself at age seven with a 30-30 Winchester Model 94. I have killed a pickup load of bobcats with a .22 LR, many with a Browning Buckmark. The old Winchester was one of the true classic hunting rifles.
Adios,
Gary
