I have not looked at either State. It will be Texas and my family will help--down, improvement, co sign --no handouts just a hand. It has to be paid back.
Right now I am waiting for an answer on 186 acres in Texas for 650,000. It has both a large pond and creek ( year round water ). It...
I spent a summer in North Dakota and the fencing there was -- wood and metal posts, with woven wire 6 foot plus, high. No hot wire or barb.
And occasionally one would still get out.
The grass was maintained very well. Controlled fires, herd size, spraying, water,
It is a lot of work...
Small towns are not just "remembered" and "loved" by our senior citizens, they are also desired, appreciated and enjoyed by some young Americans as well.
I will move back to Texas and when I do I will live in Bandera Texas. I love that town. Admittedly they have taken advantage of their...
Condolences to the family

When we moved up to Alaska from Texas, I ask about the bears and my father and grandfather told me "there are fewer people killed by bear's in Alaska than rattlesnakes in Texas and they are a lot bigger target" :)
I have had a few encounters...
The irony of this, is that, one of her teammates last year-- Lauren Jensen, did transfer last year and her new team knocked Iowa and Caitlin out of the playoffs on a last second shot. You can transfer, but it is not easy or quick when your an athlete. And, as has been mentioned, possibly she...
Watching her with my grandfather and he said that in addition to her scoring, her rebounds and assists per game, reminded him more of Larry Bird and Magic Johnson.
Larry Bird and Magic Johnson, were before my time, but he showed me highlight clips of them and Wow !
I wish her and her team...
These are very well written and thought provoking statements.
I think one of the things my parents did in an effort to educate myself and my siblings was to "show us" by taking us to other parts of the world, as well as areas in the U.S. where a blanket, a tent, a sandwich was needed and...
She needs to be very careful however, as her generosity could come back to bite her in the butt, if she offers wildlife game meat to the wrong people. Some people are not content to just refuse the offer and agree to disagree on a subject. They have to try to destroy that person, because they...
Me ! talking to my parents -- ( referring to when we left Texas for Alaska )
WE have approx 4 hours of sun, but --------right now, Panda Bear, has only 4 hours of "civil twilight"---No sun at all, so it could be worse o_O
congratulations Evie, hope you hunt for many more years
Europe has to be close to 90 and she took her granddaughter on an Ibex hunt a couple years ago
Happymyles hunted into his 80's
My grandmother hunted with my grandfather until she was 78 and various health problem kept her from hunting...
Approx 10 years ago it got so bad on the Cabelas forum, the forum was shut down. Several members of this forum will remember, but not fondly.
They attempted to get Pat fired from his job because he hunted. They managed to get a wonderful group hunt organized by Walt cancelled because they...
My grandparents and parents had horses, so horses have always been in my life and I love them. Hunting, trail, show, fox, rodeo, ranching, love it all.
Have competed in barrel racing, roping and bucking ( saddle ) in rodeos and have had horses decide at the last minute not to jump, a jump, but...
good point, however "I think" what he meant was that Africa is more of a mainstream hunt than Asia. I know several more who have hunted Africa than I do who have hunted Asia. People talk about Africa more, more books have been written about hunting Africa, etc. I think that is what he meant...
either/or
since you dont have either and want both. Plus you have other calibers to hunt both large and small game. Whichever one you choose this time, brings you down to only one in that caliber range you still want and you will find a way to buy that one soon ;)
You mentioned you enjoy...
With all due respect, I disagree. Yes, Africa will provide more horns for the same amount of money, will provide more "mental" safety, would be an easier hunt physically, as well a provide better accommodations . But she can do Africa when she is in her 40,s, 50, 60,s 70,s even 80,s as you...
