    Would you? Commercial Insurance!

    Cole sent this to his family looking for ideas! I told him let me send it to my CWT family and see what hunters say! I need the family help on this one. Pull your brains together. I am going to be hosting a clay pigeon shoot for business owners. You have to let me quote your business insurance to get in. 50 clays per person. 2 people teams. Winning team gets 2 Yeti coolers. 1. What do I call it? 2. What do I need to do to better the system. (Make it go smoother, get more people interested etc.) 3. Is a Yeti cooler a good prize?

    Tragedy and blame

    Having been involved with coaching, camps, activities, trips and endless hours of time spent trying to help kids, it is sad to see that "blame" has to work its way into the picture. The tragedy is loss of a young life, but does this type of action solve anything? They eye catcher for me was G$F got pulled into this game. https://www.12news.com/amp/article/news/local/valley/family-of-teen-who-drowned-at-show-low-lake-plans-to-sue/75-9eef3d8d-be28-4da4-9d08-199c1ed5ba8d Family of teen who drowned at Show Low Lake during football camp trip plans to sue for $50 million 15-year-old Christopher Hampton was attending football camp when the team was taken to Show Low Lake where he drowned. Author: Haley Williams Published: 10:36 PM MST October 26, 2023 Updated: 10:36 PM MST October 26, 2023 PHOENIX — The family of a 15-year-old who drowned at Show Low Lake while at football camp is planning to sue for $50 million, according to a notice of claim obtained by 12News. Christopher Hampton, a student at Cesar Chavez High School, went missing on the lake on July 17 and his body was found the next day at the bottom of the lake. Lawyers for Hampton's family said in the document that Show Low lake is designated as "non-swimming," and blames several different entities for the tragic death including the school, the school district, the coach and assistant principal, the City of Show Low and Arizona Game & Fish. "Chris' death wasn't just a preventable one, it was caused by the gross negligence of the adults who were responsible of taking care of him," the notice of claim states. "It is difficult to imagine more careless behavior by adults tasked with ensuring the safety of minors, than herding them into a dangerous mountain lake with zero supervision and zero safety measures." The notice said the City of Show Low and Arizona Game & Fish officials are "well aware that large groups of kids go swimming in the lake despite the dangerous conditions."

    Hunting techniques

    As a kid I was taught by my dad to slow walk, stop, look, listen and slow walk again with the hope that I might encounter a buck! My first buck was shot off hand, with a lever action, open sight, 30-30, maybe 30 yards in open grass hillside bootheel New Mexico! I’m positive my brother, who was walking parallel to me on the same grassy slow roll ridge, had kicked the buck up! The little two point mule deer never saw me and I shot him right under his ear! I have never shot a deer or elk that I “glassed” up! This season a week ago my grandson, 300 yards, buck glassed up by his uncle, rifle in a clamp! My son this morning, 300 yards, buck glassed up, solo hunt! I own a pair of binoculars now, and I love using them to scour a hillside looking for game! I personally don’t think I’ve ever shot at anything further than 200 yards and I’m not nearly as accomplished as a hunter as many on CWT! But……. I still enjoy the slow walk, stop look and listen approach and feel blessed that while I’m slower at walking than I used to be I can still get out there and hunt!

    Big Bug 😳

    https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0xsHWGHRHSHeP6hshCS19FHHvEiTswt1wBt26rWM3xkTkJsjckq4Y7ySHD7km53Xfl&id=100064466781512&mibextid=K8Wfd2 Battle Of Big Bug: It was in 1863 near the town of Big Bug, that Theodore Boggs and three other miners were working a very productive gold claim. They had built a Dugout cabin along a hill side near where they were working. One night after a long day of working on their claim, the men cleaned up, dinner then went to bed and never knowing that they were being watched. During the middle of the night one of the men woke up to the sound of their dog crying. As the miner peered out of the only window, he seen their dog had been shot with an arrow and was crying as he was limping toward the cabin. At this exact moment, the Apache warriors then began to roll two very large boulders down the hill to crush or burry the miners alive inside their cabin. Two of the miners actually help a bed frame over their heads to keep the roof from caving in on them. With the cabin damaged from the boulders, but still standing. The Apache began to move in to finish off the miners inside the cabin. With two of the miners occupied with holding the ceiling up and trying to repair their now crumbling cabin, Boggs and one other miner loaded their muskets as well as those of the other two miners and waited for the Apache to come. The men had to dig hasty gun port holes into the walls of the cabin to defend themselves properly, as there was only one small singe window. When the Apache first charged, two of them were killed instantly and the rest fell back and began taking shots at the cabin. Two Apache's tried to set the front of the cabin on fire, but both were badly wounded and carried off by their fellow warriors up the hill side then for an hour after there was noting but silence. All of a sudden the hills lit up with a bright burning flicker and to the miners amazement, the Apache had carried off their dead warriors and now were cremating them in full view of the miners trapped inside the cabin. By morning the fires had burnt out and the Apache had fled. After this the four men raced to the town of Big Bug (Population of just 100) and told the residence and other miners of their story and to raise the alarm. This was just one of many skirmishes/battles that took place within the Bradshaw Mountains during the Apache Wars. In numerous books, articles & material I often come across that the period of 1853-1873 was the most deadly period for American miners, settlers in the Arizona Territory. Big Bug has always been a great location that yields amazing gold. During the 1860's-1880's an estimated 15,000-18,000 ounces of gold was yielded from the placer claims. During the 1930's-1940's a recorded 50,000 ounces of gold was yielded from dredging. The lone miners during this time were making an easy $300 a week from the gold they were recovering form the creek & hillsides. Very little exists today of the old mining down of Big Bug Today Roadrunner's Prospecting Club & the GPAA have good mining claims along Big Bug Creek. To this day, active mining claims along Big Bug Creek still produce impressive amounts of gold. I have worked some of these placer claims on and off since the mid 1990's and I still find nice size pickers in my pan. Theirs Still Gold In Them There Hills! (Please follow & respect State, Federal laws and land as well as private property, if in doubt just ask permission). If you happen to be traveling along the I-17 this week on your way to Prescott, Flagstaff or Phoenix, maybe stop by and check out this priceless piece of the Wild West & Arizona's past. I hope everyone has a fun & adventurous week! Stay Safe, Stay Alive, Keep Treasure Hunting!!

    Home Town Memories Animas New Mexico

    This happened after my time. Football came to Animas my sophomore year 1976. We were horrible but things changed when Billy Henson took over. My little brother played for Henson. It is true, we traveled to Clayton, NM to watch the championship game one year. Just a cool tribute to small town football and the dedication of a coach to make the most of what he had. Funny part of the story.....Lordsburg's 9-8 victory ended Animas's bid to break the all-time national record of 72 consecutive wins by Hudson High of Michigan from 1968 through 1975. https://www.krqe.com/video/remembering-the-animas-panthers-new-mexicos-biggest-dynasty/9063410/
