That really brings back memories,Black & white TV, 3 channels The American Sportsman was our family show and now I don't watch TV but for the news and weather. The old way have past and the new generation of TV is a joke.I still keep it simple old camo and a few calls in a sack with a fat boy cushion all though I did hunt this year with a new A5 Browning,it reminds me of dad's old Belgium Browning that is retired now.Simple still works for my hunting. Back in the early 60s we watched the radio and listened to the Grand Ole Opry,The Superman series and news as a family now with computers,cell phones, tablets and videos it's not a family affair thing.Mabe I'm getting old (65)but I sill like it simpleI believe you know my thoughts on all that foolishment. As for the old days, I still hunt about like I did back in the early 1960s. No decoys, tent blinds, or any of that stuff, and no dancing, hollering, and carrying on on like a Saturday night drunk. After watching a couple of so called hunting shows back in the early 80s, I realized right quick that the only good one was The American Sportsman hosted by Curt Gowdy. Doubt many here ever heard of that one. I`m not old school, I`m Old Testament.
Here`s to how it`s supposed to be, and originally was.
I'm blessed every day just to be around to enjoy the outdoors,and had the pleasure of introducing a young man to turkey hunting this year again (he missed) but he's hooked for life.He got his first gobbler with his dad on a family farm the 2nd week of the season and called me and said I wish you could have seen this.I could picture it as he told the story.Looking for next year all ready .
