WOW!!!!!

Well, we were down in Billings yesterday, and we went to Cabela's. Well, we were walking around looking at things, when I saw a guy wearing a tan cowboy hat and a lanyard of calls around his neck. About the time I noticed him, one of the employees, went by and shook his hand, and that pretty well sealed the deal. I walked over and asked "Are you Wayne Carlton?" And sure enough it was! He shook my hand and I introduced myself and told him I enjoyed his Bear calling video. He gave me a tip about calling Bears. : ) He was giving a seminar that night at Cabela's.(Dang it we couldn't go!) He autoghraphed a promotional sheet and gave it to me. : ) It was very cool to meet him!

Size Comp

Here's a pic of the rattles from the one we killed today and the one we killed a while back.

Heck of a day!

Well, I ain't posted in a while, but we've had an exciting day!
First, me and Nash went on a hike with the dogs hoping to jump a coon or coyote. : ) We had fun!






Well, we were going along fine, when we couldn't find Tug or Cap anywhere! We called and called and called some more, but we couldn't find them or hear them anywhere. We started home and Tug came up the road behind us. Well, we thought, if Tug's here, Cap will be along. Wrong!! We went on home with Tug, and started looking for Cap. Long story short, he came rolling in about two hours later.

Next, me and Nash were messin around in Cliff's woods while Dad was cutting hay. We were coming out of the bottom when, hissss, buzzz!! A big Prairie Rattler was buzzing like heck and hissing just off the path we both started hollering RATTLER, RATTLER!! Dad, Mom and Cliff came running! Cliff got a pistol, and shot him twice in the head. Dad chopped it off with a shovel, and I cut off the rattles. I cut him open, and Cliff pulled off the skin.




Big day!!
