Vintage Hunting Photos (Good Old Days)

[airedale]

Have had this happen to me personally more times than I care to remember, a snoot full of quills is a sure way to ruin a hunt. Not so many Porkys around these days around my neck of the woods, I think it is due to the fact there are a few Fishers dining on them.

wonder if they are going to eat them Jack rabbits? Neat how they have the one on the hood propped up with the fancy radiator cap.

My grandfather with 2 grouse and I believe a 16 ga.

Look at those boots!

I never hunted with him as he stopped hunting before I was 12 yrs old.

He did take pheasants or rabbits we shot though.

Hey Gunner your Grand Dad's hunting attire and boots were what was in back in those days, pants tucked into your tall boots was common. Many of the photos in this thread show hunters dressed similar.

Notice his old car had an actual "trunk" in the rear, can see where the trunk term originated.
