Title: First time stumpin this year!
Post by: misfire on February 06, 2013, 09:41:00 AM
Had some chilly temps and a light snow but enjoyed it none the less!

My favorite tree fell a couple years ago.

Taking a break.

Can't wait till Spring.

Some bones.

A little history. Using a hammer and "chisel" they would drill holes then hit it with the hammer and split the stone. Hard work!

You don't find to many targets like this in the woods!

Thanks for taking us along!  It was nice for someone to leave some targets for you to shoot at!  Great time to be out and about in the timber.

It's just an old military canvas shoulder bag. I sewed some flanel on the outside to hold a water bottle.

It really is. There's plenty of room and it only cost me about $5.00.
