When I go to the woods with my flintlock I like to wear my traditional attire. To me it makes the hunt more real and more enjoyable.

Great photos and great hunting attire. Looks like you have a lot of great memories there ..... and more to come I'd bet.
Great pictures. Thanks for sharing with us. :applause:

I should have posted on the "Traditional Hunting" forum,... sorry..... Maybe it can be moved?" [hmm]
thmbsup Looking good there Lobo.....
Lobo,
Great photos!
Maybe, sometime you could add a line or two to each of the photos. Dates and locations and the outcome of the hunt would be appreciated.
Thanks for sharing your traditional hunts.

Lookin Awesome...many thumbs up!!!

See the second picture above. You can get Hunter Orange cloth now and make a cape as Lobo did or even a capote type coat. There should be enough square inches of orange to satisfy your local game laws. Just a thought.

and if you have to have a hunter orange hat , get one of these from townsends .
Those are really cool photos; and the game shots really catch my attention.

I think it would be a lot of "fun" to do all my hunting in period clothing. But I could never assemble the necessary $$, and I refused to go out a "half dressed" persona. I do, and did from the start, use bag and horn - I generally make everything myself. I started hunting in jeans, later on it was sometimes fatigues. Later I got a canvas hunting jacket and slowly accumulated other togs. Some were gifts; actually many were.
Being already a "ratty" - ask hotfxr if you don't believe me - sort of guy I am told I'm "scruffy to the bone". So I use that in lieu of period togs.

We understand and do not judge Lazarus Long.. oops I mean Hanshi.... :mini-devil-28492: :mini-devil-28492: IF you don't know who Lazarus Long was PM me... pnic
Actually Oh Great Leader, (not you Hanshi, the Red Badger) I'm glad to know someone here knows of one of the innumerable aliases of Woodrow Wilson Smith. I thought I was the only follower of the black (powder) arts who read those type of books.

I had the honor of mowing the grounds of R.H.'s estate as well as a few others near Boulder Creek, CA as a teenager... I think I have read all his works as well many of the Space Opera masters... E.E. "Doc" Smith is a favorite...
At my age and hair color, I believe I should qualify as a gray lensman. Wish I'd have kept those books like I did R.A.H.
I'm not familiar with the guy discussed in the above posts. Who is he? Is he as well known as Joe Smith? [hmm]
Wasn't Lazarus Long Hanshi's grandson?
Yes, I know the series. I read them all a few hundred years ago when I was in and just out of college.
Greybear - I lost almost all of mine from those days but ran accross a few at at the goodwill, and Amazon has reprints now available for the entire series and some fan fiction titles which are almost as good as "Doc"'s works... and yes I also follow Barsoom...
