I don’t typically read those really long emails that come through my mailbox but this one had just the right mix of explosions, Dukes of Hazzard references and similarities to my own childhood that I thought it would be entertaining. Enjoy your Super Sunday!
Thanks to Doubletough member Aaron Enget.
(Original author) This was sent to me in an email from an old shootin buddy who asked I attribute it anonymously. It’s one of the funniest things I’ve read in a long time. Hope you guys get a charge out of it too. lol
Around age 10 my dad got me a really cool present … one of those little badass compound bow beginner kits. Of course, the first month I went around our place sticking arrows in anything that could get stuck by an arrow. Did you know that a 1955 40 horse Farmall tractor will take 6 rounds before it goes down? Tough sumbich. Read more…

Thanks to Tyke Bennett and Aaron Enget for sending this in!
Check out the crew of JagerPro as they do some population control on an outlaw band of Georgia hogs. Using thermal imaging atop a DPMS Panther Arms .308 rifle, they drop the hammer on 22 hogs in a single night.
This series of photographs were dropped in my emailbox recently and the description stated the scene of this snake vs. Goanna took place in Cloudbreak, Arizona. There are two problems here: Goanna are only found in Australia (with a stray species in Tasmania) and there is no town of Cloudbreak in Arizona.
Nevermind those minor details; wherever this occurred, seeing a snake consume anything, much less something full of claws & teeth, is fascinating. Check out more photos after the jump.
There is nothing more endearing than the twinkle of a tear in a grown man’s eye as he admires the largest buck ever to cross his property on a day when his wife told him to get the kids out of the house…..
That’s probably not quite how this went down and I’m sure McKenzie’s father, Phil Barker, was quite proud of her when she knocked down this grand buck. That’s right he’s happy for her. Tickled pink. Proud papa. What’re you laughing at?!

Thanks to Cory Glauner for sharing this remarkable trailcam photo.
You don’t have to venture out of the big city to find industrious good ‘ol boys. Not far from the University of South Carolina in Columbia, Doubletough contributor Ceth Land found these new-fangled deer stands converted from port-a-johns.
Note the fine craftsmanship: custom deer, deer head, duck and palm tree stencils, hinged shooter winders (aka windows) and toilet paper holder. Skip the $175 reinforced steel, 20′ ladder stand and grab one of these handmade-in-the-South, weather resistant deer closets for $250. They’ll even throw in a free Go Cocks! bumper sticker for the ride home.
