Title: My good friend Passed..
Post by: rasbo on April 26, 2012, 06:35:53 PM: This is in the bear section cause Scotty showed me evrything I know about bears,he got me hooked years ago..Scotty Gott,he was a houndsman in his day..took a few hundred bears,all over.the promised land is where he loved to speak of..He was a tough ol fart,I remember a fall he took at 70yrs old,he come back to camp his ear damn near tore off,and face bleeding from damn near all points.He washed up and back out we went....we sat together and played many a game of tonk,and polished of many whiskey's..If ya ever drove down camp one rd he lived there for years...God bless you my friend,and thanks for the memories :'(
