Ha that brings back some good memories patriot! My grandpa had a 72? ford LTD that was about the same color blue as that house in the background...When the trunk was full they went on the back just like that!

How my methods and hunting mindset has changed...

I used to have a hat just like Dad is wearing in pic #2.  And was probably wearing it in 1983 as well!

Belushi?  That's great![:D]
 
And now I've started to pass it on to my son.  I love this stuff!

I dug out some old stuff. The fact that I'm wearing red pants, red hat and a red/black jacket tells me that these pics were taken about 1966 or 1967. I know the one picture is my 67 Ford convertible so I'm sure that one was 1967. In the other picture with car I see the old 64 Chevelle, so I'm guessing 65 or 66. All these pictures taken in Waupaca County WI east of Iola off Hy 161. The black and white is a buck my cousin took in Pennsylvania.

this post NEEDS to survive and flourish.  I love vintage hunting shots.

Here's me in 1980 or 1981....the cute one by daddy.[:D]
 
I believe this pic made it into an issue of D&DH back in the day.

I wanted to add something to this post, but my father & uncle were very stoic New Englanders who didn't believe in the frivolity of taking pictures. So the closest I could come is a photo of me deep sea fishing, age 15, taken by my sister. They hadn't invented color film yet.
