hunters were hunters, no one had even spoken 6.5 Creedmore, much less heard of it.

That old rack with the metal tag is super cool.  My dad had a big, heavy 4X4 muley rack hanging up in the carport in the house I grew-up in, in Kearny.  Killed it up close to the Ray copper pit, I believe.  It had one of those metal tags, circa around 1960 or 1961, I think.  When they moved after he retired in the early 90s, the rack somehow became lost.  Sure wish I had that now....

I think this is the same deer. Remington 30-06 Gamemaster with 4x Weaver.

I haven't changed a thing on that rig. I don't think dad owned any camo.

Yep, and earlier too.

Here is my great-grandfather's Winchester 1894 that I have now. Serial number says build was circa 1907.

My family said he got a decent number of deer all around the Sulphur Springs Valley in the first half of the 20th century. They hunted up to Willcox, over to Bisbee, down to Douglas and all around there. Dos Cabezas and Mule mountains I think are the two ranges on either side.

It's old enough that it is marked 30 W.C.F. instead of the newer, more common 30-30 marking.

I have that same setup in .270 from my grandpa. I'm looking for the right tag to use it on.

Do you know the dubious claim to fame the .270 Gamemaster has?

That is super cool. I grew up hunting with my grandpa in all those same places.

You know you're hosed when you hear "past performance is not indicative of future results" and they start quoting the tags will be mailed out by 4-2-2021.  

simple interpretation:  WE SCREWED UP.
