Sorry for the delay in new content being posted as we are busy as “Ticks on a Dawg’s Butt”  as my dear friend  VERNON NEILLY so aptly puts it!  Although he says it with a little more political correctness than I do.

I have also been extremely busy writing new songs for my latest project  T. MICHAEL RIDDLE and will keep you all updated on that as well!

Till the next time we meet, stay safe and Hunt & Rock hard!

Brian Powell, Jon Hampton & T. Michael Riddle, 20 years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play!

I just spent a very fun filled weekend with Cork Graham over at :  Corks Outdoors and let me tell you, I haven’t had that much fun since our last Dove Hunt over at N.H.E. Inc,s Jolon Ranch here last year in California.

Cork taught me how to finally use that La Caja China which I purchased about two years ago and he prepared a most delicious Wild Boar whole roast that I have ever tasted. I had a real blast watching him harvest some CottonTail rabbits (they might really be a type of hare, more on that later) with his air rifle, and we even thought we might have caught some poachers out there. Turned out it was just the neighbors teaching their 10 year old grandson to shoot a .22 caliber rifle, pretty exciting for a few minutes nonetheless.

We also got to take a traditional Long Bow archer out to the newly leased ranch over in Priest Valley, The Meyer ranch is very beautiful and just as wild and pristine as the N.H.E. Inc. owned ranch just down the street from there.
We really missed Phillip Loughlin from The Hog Blog being there with us but a nasty virus knocked him down at the last minute, that’s alright though because I know that we will do it again real soon.

There is a really interesting discussion brewing over at the YOU TUBE forum which shows complaints concerning allowable content  being published. It seems that some people believe that the hunting videos should be banned entirely from the free site, and if hunters do not get themselves involved in the discussion then that just might wind up happening over there.

Go over and put your two cents worth forth and see what the controversy is all about for yourself!

Once in awhile, I like to peek around the other blogs out there and see how some of my blogging friends are doing on their hunting seasons.  I find that I’m particularly apt to this behavior when I’m not getting out to do much hunting of my own.

Anyway, one of my long-time favorite blogs is the Deer Camp Blog, run by my virtual friend, Rex.  Their deer season has been pretty good, and Rex appears to have the biggest buck in camp so far.   They’re also putting the smack-down on some hogs back there too, from the looks of things! 

Then, we look north to Michigan, and my buddy Arthur at Simply Outdoors.  Arthur put some meat in the freezer earlier this year, but filling that next tag seems to be a bit of a challenge for him… especially since the flu put him on the sidelines for part of the season.  Good luck to ya, Arthur!

Down in the South Carolina Low Country, our friend Jeff is guiding and blogging at the Cypress Creek Hunting Club.  They’ve had some unseasonably warm weather down there this year, and it’s made the deer hunting a little sketchy.  Even so, they’ve taken some good whitetails, and not a few bruiser hogs as well!  This place is on my list for a one-of-these-days hunt. 

There are a bunch of other blogs we love to visit, and I’m in the process now of updating our blog roll so you folks can hop over and check them out too.
