  1. Thank you for your answer to my message to you.  One thing  I may have stated - less that totally clear. So, I'll try again.  I have never Killed a tame  animal , nor will I ever do That. I hunt big game -male ,mature healthy animals only. my  # 1 motive for hunting is the challenge; The biggest most perfect trophy;    1 on 1    (even odds)    #2.   I am omnivorous- love eating wild things. ( My front porch , is the great outdoors) 

    Just a note -to tell you who  I am;  A Tenn. tobacco farmers son. We were probably the poorest of the poor!  NO vehicle, electric, indoor water, refrigerator,  t.v. and the out house( had little style) and was a ways OUT.  But we were really well off compared to  ones on up hollow. I never was hungry; Always had Mom& Dad home each day.

    At 9 , I took over my dad's trap-line,( 20 traps). I caught mush rat , mink , coons & opossum.  It was done in the creek through our farm.  I  skinned & dried the pelts-sold to buyers .  (Not a creme - puff job) It was 2 times a day- 7 days a week.   If-- I was not an outdoors man - this definitely qualified me. I bought my first car at 16.( 1938 Chevy- rumble seat)   It was something really nice. It was my first step out to the big wide world. 

    I joined the USAF, 21 march 1955. After a whole world of military flying experience I retired 1985. Since then  owned and operated-three other businesses.  Now at 82 , retired four times.  The rest of my time here will be free as a bird , wild as the wind.  Too bad - my rope is so short & that all things do come to an end.  The most important - is how one stands with Jesus Christ At this time. My Parents & two siblings were ministers.
