As they prepared to leave, the Pope summoned them to come over.
‘I give you my blessing for your brave actions!’ he
told them. ‘I heard there was a bitter hatred
between Republican loggers and Democratic
environmental activists but now I’ve seen with my
own eyes that this is not true.’

As the Pope drove off, one logger asked his buddies
‘Who was that guy?’

‘It was the Pope,’ another replied. ‘He’s in direct
contact with Heaven and has access to all wisdom.’

‘Well,’ the logger said, ‘he may have access to all
wisdom but he doesn’t know squat about bear hunting!
By the way, is the bait still alive, or do we need to
go back to

Massachusetts and get another one?

I slowly turned, raised my 30.06 and fired…..CLICK! My rifle misfired, so i quickly rechambered my bolt action, raised my rifle and ClICK!…Another misfire. This happened 2 more times, before I had to completely reload my rifle. Surprising, the Deer didn’t even noticed me. It continued to slowly walk, it’s nose to the earth, completely oblivious to my frantic attempts to get my damn gun to fire.

So, now i have reloaded my rifle and sure enough, I cant see the deer anywhere. Looking through my scope, I final catch a glimspe of its tail through the woods. My first shot misses and yet the deer doesnt run. I reload and fire again….BANG and the Deer disappears.

At this point, I am crushed as I figured there was no way that I had hit the deer. I climb down from my stand and walk in the general direction of where I think the deer was standing. As I approach, I see it laying on the ground…No blood nothing…I had hit it in the spine and dropped it where it stood. The Deer never knew what hit it

Hunting Beard Evolution

The evolutionary history of bearded hunting clans can be traced back for some 4 million years, as one of the oldest of all surviving mammal groups. Most paleontologists consider that these “clans” share a common ancestor with early primates and probably lived during the late Cretaceous together with the last dinosaurs. It was during this time that the oldest known Big Game Hunting Clans flourished in North America, but they were also widespread in Eurasia and Africa.

During the tropical conditions of the Paleocene and Eocene, things looked bleak for the Clans, as heat exhaustion and chaffing were major concerns. With the beginning of modern climates, marked by the formation of the first North American ice, many primates went extinct but the bearded clans survived and are known today as…THE DEERBEARDS

What is a DeerBeard?
“Deer Beards” are special for these are the beards grown by otherwise cleanly shaved men, solely for the hunting season. Unlike our bearded ancestors, modern day hunters spend far less time engaged in their favorite past-time. Scientists blame Mans transformation from “Hunter/Gatherer” to “Sitter/Sleeper” on a steady food supply, but some experts blame the invention of the “Drive Thru window”, cable and the term “WIFE”. Today, the typical hunter gathers only once a year to relive the glory of eons past.

Growing a Deer Beard affords these domesticated coach potatoes an opportunity to achieve the special bond that starvation and scurvy created in our forefathers. Shedding most modern conveniences, these hunters return to their original state of MEN! Men of the woods, men who eat jerky, cold chili and say things like “If it’s Brown, It’s Down” and “If growing a beards wrong, I don’t want to be right.”

A Deer Beard affords the common man an opportunity to connect to something special. It is the membership card into the Club of Men. It says “I take my coffee black, change my own oil and can drop a deer from 200 yards.”

Happy Hunting,

Deer move silently through the woods, constantly aware of the hunter’s presence and can disappear from sight in the blink of an eye. Deer are naturally camouflaged and their acute sense of smell is 1000 times more powerful than humans. Even the best hunter can leave the woods after 3 straight weeks, without firing a shot.

Hunting GearA few things every hunter needs are deer stand, weapon, waterproof boots, knife, tags, orange clothing, rope and a permit. There are two different types of deer stands, ladder stands, and climbers. Ladder stands are ladders with a platform on top of them chained to a tree. Climber stands are platforms with a seat that may be carried on your back and then placed usually about 4-8 feet off the ground on a tree.Waterproof boots are not essential but they come in very handy, especially since deer do not always fall down where you shoot them and may run for a few miles into the woods. Knives are essential for skinning and field dressing deer. Tags and permits are required to hunt deer legally; they may be purchased from local sporting good stores or your state’s DNR website.

Rope is necessary for dragging your deer after the kill. Adult female white-tailed deer can weigh 145 pounds, males 170. The heaviest whitetail ever recorded in the United States was a 500-pound Minnesota buck.

Hunters and environmentalist alike will agree that deer hunting is an extremely valuable wildlife conservation tool that ensures the biological success of our natural resources, while supporting the nation’s economy.

38 Million Strong, the American Hunter pours $70 billion into the economy annually–with a whopping $179 billion in ripple effect. This makes the American Hunter among the most prominent and inflectional of all demographic groups.

The American Deer Hunter, Men and women from all walks of life, doing what they love, growing the economy, helping conservation and contributing to society.

The power of the search has changed our world forever and until today I would have said that almost all of the changes have been for the better. I quickly learned that Power, even power contained by a cluster can be dangerous. Everything was just fine….

Until I Discovered This!!

This blazing Orange horror scorched my eyes as my mind begged me to say it wasn’t so. I felt sick, much like a trapped rabbit with no where to run. How could it be that the original version of our web page was still alive? Why oh why oh why!!!

I understand maintaining a database of historically valuable documents or dot coms, but how can storing a site like this benefit anyone?

I understand our original desire to have a website, I just don’t remember it looking quite like this. I also vaguely recall writing:

“Join Ole GreyBeard, The Big Swede and friends on their annual journey into the wilderness. Heroes to beards and the men who grow them, these warriors eat chili, search for deer and answer the call of duty, whenever duty calls. See, Smell and Taste the Adventure! “It’s not a season, It’s a way of Life!” -

but it was much funnier when originally created!

What will my friends on Twitter blurb about me now?
