What I think is great is seeing these big muleys taken in big country with open sights..no binos or high dollar optics and rangefinder and huge magnums! Just think of what they coulda done with all of that equipment back then

Add to the fact that pretty much all these critters are hanging full body pack outs, no quartering and boning the meat in bags on a pole. Nothing but grissle and guts in these old timers :tup: :tup:

Here is one from 1940- My Aunt and Dad holding up a beaver pelt. South East Idaho.

Then my uncle and dad when they were young.

Hey KC, what year was that?  My dad used to hunt there as well.  The ole lady that owned the property used to shoot deer off her porch there.  Lots of rabbits used to be there also.  I'll see if my dad still has pics from there.
