Why Hunt? Part 3
I have already gone over the primitive inspiration of hunting wild game. I also have discussed the expense and the inconvenience of being a hunter (see "Why Hunt?" and "Why Hunt? Part 2.") So, to go further into detail about this fascination, need, or what ever you call it, I would like to present some more ideas on why hunting big game, or even small game, is so important.The fact is, nature is much bigger than man, and when man is hunting he is at nature's mercy. To overcome something more powerful than you, like a bear or an elk, or track and kill a wildcat, or call ducks back that are flying away from you, is an absolute rush. The kill brings the reward, satisfaction of victory, which is due to...
Antler Shed 101
Antlers do not just keep growing. They drop off and the animals grow new ones. These sloughed-off antlers are called shed. Shed hunting or collecting has been a great source for week end entertainment, especially during the off hunting season from late winter to early spring. Shed antlers are prized for making everything from jewelry to chandeliers. The big bonus is that the animals drop them every year and do not have to be killed for their antlers. However, collecting shed must be done with the animals best interest at heart. Never approach wild animals of any kind. There is no need to push them off their feeding and watering areas or disturb their routines just to get an antler. Winter is a very...

The Kooikerhundje: Dutch Decoy Dog
The Kooikerhundje has existed in the Netherlands since before the 1500s. The Kooikerhundje is a unique dog which is directly related to the dog which is known in the United States as the Nova Scotian Duck Toller. It is believed that the Toller is descended from the Kooiker. The body build of the Kooikerhundje is quite similar to the Duck toller but the coloring of the Kooiker is red and white. Like the duck toller, it is the heavily fringed white "feather" of his constantly moving tail which lures the ducks to the hunter, thus the term "decoy dog" is used to describe the function of the two breeds. In the case of the Kooikerhundje, the dog historically could be classified as a working dog...
The Brittany Spaniel: An Extraordinary Bird Dog
The Brittany Spaniel originally was found in Breton. In a painting by Oudry in the early 1700s there is a portrait of a tail-less spaniel about the size and color of the Brittany that is pointing a partridge. The breed became popular with local poachers in the 1800s because of its agility and small size and its extraordinary ability to point and flush the birds, combined with a desire to retrieve and a willingness to work.In modern times, the Brittany has become the most popular of the "pointing" breeds in the United States. It is extremely "birdy" and is tireless in the field. It will retrieve the birds also, which is not common with most of the pointers. The "Britt" also fits well into a...

What to expect upon arriving in Jamaica and at your Sandals ResortWhen your plane touches down at Sangster International Airport in Jamaica you will have to get your bags and then clear customs. Once through customs there will be many people wanting to help you with your bags etc. I'd suggest just getting your own stuff over to the Sandals Tour desk. Here you'll find a Sandals rep who will put stickers on your bags so they know which Sandals resort they should go to. A skycap in the red had will then load your bags and take them to the bus. Keep in mind these are not Sandals employees and they will expect a tip. I believe $2.00 USD per bag is customary. If you don't want to tip, I'd suggest being...
Horse Art - Eadweard Muybridge, Leland Stanford, and the Hobby Horse
A collaboration between an English-born eccentric Eadweard Muybridge and the founder of one of our great universities resulted in a series of events which spelled the end of the "hobby-horse" posture in horse art and paintings.Towards the end of the 19th century, an event occurred which significantly changed the world of horse art, in particular paintings but for sculpture as well. Until that time period, most paintings of horses at full gallop showed the front legs extended forward and the hind legs extended to the rear. Unless a horse's motion was to be similar to that of a rabbits's, this position would be anatomically impossible. This posture by the way, is often referred to as the rocking...

The Playoff Hunt
The 2006 NFL Season has turned the corner towards the last half of the season and the playoff picture is getting muddy. With 9 games played, who are the teams destined for the playoffs? Who are those that might sneak in? And who are those that need to start losing to get a better 2007 draft selection? Let's take a look. In the AFC East, there are two teams in playoff contention. The Patriots are 6-3 and have a one game on the 5-4 Jets. The Bills and Dolphins are playing for 2007. The AFC North is Baltimore's to lose. The Bengals are three games back and don't look like a playoff team. The Colts own the AFC South-that's a done deal. Jacksonville is 5-4 and has a shot at the playoffs-if they can stop...

Antelope Hunting in the Medicine Bow Region of Wyoming
I've been hunting in this region for approximately five years. In fact I've never hunted anywhere else. I grew up as a city kid in the Pacific Northwest, and even though I had friends in high school who would disappear to hunt, I never took the opportunity to do so myself. Learning as an (middle aged) adult is quite a bit harder.The urge to hunt began when we lived in eastern Montana. The whitetail deer were all over the wheat fields (I managed to take one out with our mini-van, but I don't think that counts). There were also a large amount of ring-necked pheasants. I quite often thought that if one was to carry a shotgun in their car, that they could get you year's worth of pheasant during one...

Archery - It's Not Just For The Primitive Man
I can only assume historically, the earliest man must have faced a dilemma when he went off to hunt for food. The wild animals were big, and if you got too close, they could devour you before you got the chance to kill them. There were no guns at this point, so man probably had to put himself in harm's way more times then not, just to increase his chances of catching his prey. I can assume at this point and time, man was thinking of ways to increase his chances of catching his prey, while trying to reduce the potential physical harm to himself. Maybe this is when the idea of the spear began to form in man's mind.The spear, in its most basic form, was a stick that was sharpened at the end. Soon...

How To Win the Job-Hunting Game
When I got over the initial shock of being urged to "seek alternative employment" I found myself, like so many others, out beating the bushes looking for a job. I found that I was just another one of the sheep following the same traditional job-hunting procedures as everyone else.I wrote resumes, mailed them to the same prospects that everyone else was sending theirs to and found little comfort knowing that mine was included in a pile that was growing bigger every day.To be successful amid all this competition would be tantamount to winning the lottery! It sure looked like the odds were stacked against me; especially after enduring the long non-event waiting periods that never ended. I got the...

Cheetah - Speed Is My Life
The cheetah has had one of the most dramatic lives of any cat. The cheetah was originally around almost 4 million years ago, long before the other big cats. It was once very common in Europe, North America, Asia and Africa. Then, about 10,000 years ago, the cheetah disappeared from North America. This sudden disappearing act was caused by a major climatic change. Evidence that the cheetah existed in the US, was found in areas now known as, Texas, Nevada and Wyoming. The cheetah was also gone in Europe, and most of those in Asia and Africa had disappeared. Because of this traumatic event, it is believed that the cheetahs we see today, were all the result of inbreeding and this is why it is hard...
