Me Mudder Did It

This is a 1939 photo of my Mother.

Recollect the story of the 1920s mobster, who as he lay dying and all shot up in the hospital, was asked by police "Who did it."
And all he would say was, "Me Mudder did it."

If anyone asks me why I am interested in guns, target shooting, gun culture and hunting, I can truthfully say, "Me Mudder did it," although I suspect that my Father had a great deal of influence as well.

Finally made the front page. The cat is 20-year old Willey, who, like me, is a native Detroiter.

The reporter, John Mulcahy did a fine job. The photo is by Lad Strayer.

BAP and Buffalo Roaming in Ruby Valley, Montana

October 2011

This shot is taken in front of the Ted Turner Ranch.  Those are his buffalo and I wasn't about to robin-hood one of them.

We shot no elk.  We did see elk cows.  My friend Henry Lievens attempted a very long shot, actually four shots, at a monster bull elk more than 400 yards distant, with his .338.  He came close--rocks fragmented above and below where the elk was crossing the mountain side.  It reminded me of the joke about the three statisticians who went elk hunting: the first saw a distant elk, leveled his rifle and fired; the shot struck three feet low; the second in turn fired his rifle, and it hit three feet high on the rocky slope; said the third, "We got him."  They were, of course, social statisticians, working for the Obama administration.  

We didn't get him. No meat for us, although we share a better sense of reality testing than the social statisticians and those whom they inform.  We did see four moose, a few hundred antelope. a few hundred mule deer,  two astonishing foxes that behaved as if they had never seem humans before and a shrew-like creature that lived at about 9,000 feet.

It was a great hunt.
