Do you own a gun?

Glad to post again. Been real busy lately with Mr. Bob's Chuckwagon Sauce & Spice . I got this message in an email this morning. Thought the best way for me to send this out is to post it here. Please read the info and decide for yourself how dangerous this could possibly be...for everyone.

"Do you own a gun?
Very Important that you read this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To read more about this, go to SNOPES and put in "gun cotrol bills".
Federal law requiring disclosure of all guns on your tax forms
Below is a back-door federal approach to national gun registration. It will be passed administratively and won't even require a vote by Congress.
Remember, the socialist takeover CANNOT succeed without disarming the public. This is step one; a national list of who has what guns.

Subject: senate bill SB-2099 / amendment to internal revenue act of 1986


Senate Bill SB-2099 will require us to put on our 2009 1040 federal tax form all guns that you have or own.. It may require fingerprints and a tax of $50 per gun.

This bill was introduced on Feb. 24. This bill will become public knowledge 30 days after it is voted into law. This is an amendment to the Internal Revenue Act of 1986. This means that
the Finance Committee can pass this without the Senate voting on it at all..

The full text of the proposed amendment is on the U.S. Senate homepage,
http://www.senate.gov/ You can find the bill by doing a search by the bill number, SB-2099.

You know who to call; I strongly suggest you do. Please send a copy of this e-mail to every gun owner you know.

http://www.opencongress.org/bill/111-h45/text
Congress is now starting on the firearms confiscation bill. If it passes, gun owners will become criminals if you don't fully comply.

It has started.
Very Important for you to be aware of a new bill HR 45 introduced into the House. This is the Blair Holt Firearm Licensing & Record of Sale Act of 2009.

Even gun shop owners didn't know about this because the government is trying to fly it under the radar.

To find out about this - go to any government website and type in HR 45 or Google HR 45 Blair Holt Firearm Licensing & Record of Sales Act of 2009. You will get all the information.
Basically this would make it illegal to own a firearm - any rifle with a clip or ANY pistol unless:

-It is registered
-You are fingerprinted
-You supply a current Driver's License
-You supply your Social Security #
-You will submit to a physical & mental evaluation at any time of their choosing
- Each update - change or ownership through private or public sale must be reported and costs $25 - Failure to do so you automatically lose the right to own a firearm and are subject up to a year in jail.
- There is a child provision clause on page 16 section 305 stating a child-access provision. Gun must be locked and inaccessible to any child under 18.
-They would have the right to come and inspect that you are storing your gun safely away from accessibility to children and fine is punishable for up to 5 yrs. in prison.

If you think this is a joke - go to the website and take your pick of many options to read this. It is long and lengthy. But, more and more people are becoming aware of this. Pass the word along.

Any hunters in your family, pass this along.


This is just a "termite" approach to complete confiscation of guns and disarming of our society to the point we have no defense - chip away a little here and there until the goal is accomplished before anyone realizes it.

This is one to act on whether you own a gun or not.

If you take my gun, only the criminal will have one to use against me. HR 45 only makes me/us less safe.

Good day! Rick Kratzke posted this recipe over at Whtetail Woods and I thought it sounded pretty good. Please enjoy.


Deer season is approaching fast and I am already behind in getting ready. Too hot to scout, and to shoot too much for that matter. It is defintely time to work on my plan of attack though. Whew! So much to do. Gotta get started.

Check back as we begin to at least work on stands and hunting blinds in the next couple weeks.

Thanks for coming by.

New hunting book NOW available!

This past week I had the pleasure of meeting Wm. Hovey Smith, an outdoor writer, near Dublin, Georgia. While at a local gun shop, a friend and I were working on our plans for our upcoming Georgia alligator season. A gentleman approached from the store and jumped right in the conversation, and really seemed to know alot about hunting gators. In fact, Mr. Smith seemed to have a pretty good grip on hunting in general.

Mr. Smith, as I found out, was working his way around announcing his new book, "Backyard Deer Hunting". From the author's website, "Backyard Deer Hunting: Coverting deer to dinner for pennies per pound was written to meet a need to providing information on how to find, kill and ultimately eat deer and other game animals as inexpensively as possible. Rather than being about trophy animals, the object of this book is to shoot and process game for food....". Also, "With the 2008 economic downturn, the need for such a book became increasingly apparent".

Please take a minute and stop by Mr. Smith's website, http://www.hoveysmith.com/ and see what he has to offer. Too, Mr. Smith publishes a blog that may be of interest to you, http://hoveysmith.wordpress.com/ .

Thanks for coming by the blog today. Gator season is fast approaching....and we are really hoping for those gator tags with our names.

We are what we leave behind.....

I have learned that one of the strongest impacts we can have upon those around us is the legacy we leave behind. Wikipedia defines legacy simple as, "Something someone is remembered as".... that's a lot to take in. If we could breakdown our outdoor lives into one sentence, what would it be.....?

We should recognize that our outdoor/hunting experiences are very precious. The memories of early mornings and late night camp fires....ancient hunting cabins and barbecue pits.......meat poles and deer kill log books. I am thankful for having been invited along from an early age.

Our family recently lost a gentleman that understood these ideas. My wife's Grandfather, Mr. Wood, was a Georgia outdoorsman...always looking for a creek to fish, or a trot line to work. In his younger days, Mr. Wood was known for taking kids fishing. When Mr. Wood passed away, there were flowers delivered, signed only..."from all the little boys you taught to fish". If I could choose one sentence to describe my outdoor legacy, this would be a contender.. Mr. wood left an outdoors legacy all over the county he lived in (for 90 years).

I believe our outdoor future lies in the hands and hearts of the youth....and the youth will only take up outdoors pursuits if they are invited into the "tribe".... Take a kid hunting/fishing and add to that legacy you are leaving.

I thank you for coming by the blog today for a visit. Please stop in again soon.

NRA position on Judge Sotomayor

For information regarding the position of the NRA on the nomination of Sonia Sotomayor to the supreme court, please goto http://home.nra.org/#/home . Check out the full article.

Here's a sample:
"We believe any individual who does not agree that the Second Amendment guarantees a fundamental right and who does not respect our God-given right of self-defense should not serve on any court, much less the highest court in the land. Therefore, the National Rifle Association of America opposes the confirmation of Judge Sonia Sotomayor to the position of associate justice of the United States Supreme Court."

Please, if you are not an NRA member, consider becoming one. Now. Come back by the blog when you can spend more time with us.

Thanks

Whitetail Scouting

The time has come to start our scouting for deer season. Granted, it's way to hot in middle Georgia to be to far in the woods, but my trail cam does not mind a bit. Here's a great idea I came across on another blog for a feeder to get those whitetails to better pose for our pictures. Check it out and enjoy. http://whitetailwoods.blogspot.com/2009/07/inexpensive-gravity-fed-deer-feeders.html

Thanks for stopping in the blog today. Please come by when you have plenty of time, and please take someone you care about with you the next time you get to go outdoors.

Grilling outdoors makes for a great time!

There are several seasons throughout the year that are near to my heart...deer season, turkey season, trout season, and of course grillin season. I do not love the heat of summer, but I sure love the heat and smell coming off a hot grill. I have found and interesting article about grilling over at Squidoo, (articles there are called lenses). Here's a sample, "To barbecue chicken, bring the grill to a high temperature, then put your chicken on the grill, bone side down. This helps get the chicken cooking internally. After a few minutes, lower the heat. Now you can grill your chicken as usual and the lower heat will keep it from burning."

For more information and grilling tips, goto http://www.squidoo.com/grillingandchilling .

As we go thru the summer, I will post more articles regarding outdoor cooking. Hunting may be kind of slow in the summer, but the eatin isn't too bad. Come back soon and stay a while.

Thanks
