Todays hunt

[jeff of pa]

Before Going Hunting Today,
WhitesPa & I decided to take a walk
up a mountan side to where a Church stood in 1875.
Although we didn't find any sign of it
I Think we at least Found the General area.
Must have been Wooden with No Foundation.

On the way out we Spyed this



After Closer Inspection





After Hammering & Pulling & Chipping away we Got it out




It's Obvious Somone Hammered it into the Branch



We Then went to the Park we've been Hitting.

Found
Sinker


Considering We Find one or 2 of these every Time
we are there. I'd say somones Huffing spot in the 60's, 70's ?



2 buckels were attached to Large Piece of Leather.
Possably Arm Wrap from an archer




Ladies watch

Yes it is actually a WILCOX Randy the First Half is worn
the Oval Circle that had it in is still Visible.

It's 10" Over all in length

As far as Replacement.

Thanks But I think I'v repaired it enough to use.

I Prefer a 2 Footer when Using a Digger though.but Lately have just been using a Blade
like this.


I'll throw it in with my other Found & Aquired Scoops over the years
In case I meet a Hunter who dosn't have one or Forgot Theirs at home.

The Stains on the Handle & Damage Give it character & a Story
