They smelled really bad and the skin pulled away from the meat. After I realized the deer was infected I left them were they were shot. |

| Well, due to the fact I hunt a lot and the bullets fly the possibility of getting hit becomes more a reality. I mean when I go upland bird hunting the shells are flying by the hundreds and the birds are falling out of the sky.
I've never been hit by a high power rifle bullet though. Get hit by one of those and better they just gut you and leave you there because the bullets are designed to open up and devistate a body. FYI, hunting bullets are not allowed in war because of this. Only round or pointed bullets, full metal jacket so they don't open up are used. Still you get shot by one of those and odds are you will be just as dead.
I've been shot by other bird hunters with shot guns a few times. Once from about 50 yards. Hurt like a mother fucker and got a few pellets in my ass. Shotguns are just as bad as a high power rifle if you get shot close up. they will blow a hole clean through you about the size of a quarter. Better to just leave you were you dropped.

Falcon | We used to Hollow Point our AR15 rounds, does this make me a bad person?
We wanted those VC to fall down and stay down. Yeah, it worked.

| The problem with war are the rules. The only rule that is good is fight to win!
I don't like war, but.............there are times we must fight.
What pisses me off is the fact that the people we are fighting now follow no rules at all, they don't have the balls to mark themselves as soldiers and they don't have the balls to go toe to toe. But yet if one of our boys get a little wild, they get fucked up the ass and their CO's don't have the balls to stand up for them.
I say if we are getting blown up and shot at, fuck 'em, fight to win, get this shit over with and bring our boys home. |

| Absolutely,
If following the rules gets you dead then the rules aren't good ones.

Speaking of shotgun wounds....I saw the aftermath of a NVA Soldier that had been hit in the upper stomach area with a blast from an M12 12ga, with OO Buck shot from about 20'. He was just about cut in two.

| Hunting Story When I first got out of the Army, my head still kinda fucked up from Nam, I packed everyone up and moved to the desert. Cathedral City...About 4 miles So. of Palm Springs. I wanted to get away from all the news and shit that was going on at the time. I was working for a plumbing shop in Palm Desert and we would hit the job site around 6:00 am and work straight through until 2:00. By then it was so hot you had to get out of it.
I had a favorite coffee shop in Cat city called the Spud Nut. This guy made the best potato raised, glazed donuts. They would melt in your mouth. I would hit his place around 5:00 am and have my morning coffee and sugar fix.
One morning, about 2 weeks before opening season for Dove, I was just finishing up and getting ready to head out for work, when these 2 guys came in.
I thought, "Damn, this guy looks familiar, where have I seen him? Carpenter? Some job site, for sure." When the owner said, "Good morning Mr. McQueen." Click, duh. I looked at him and he was wearing Levis, work boots and a white tee shirt. I had to say something as I had just, not too long ago seen the movie, The Great Escape. And, as I was into racing motorcycles and Steve McQueen was my favorite actor at the time. I said, Hey Mr. McQueen, how's it goin'?"
He looked at me and said, "Call me Steve, No, call me Stebo." Shaking my hand.
Ok.....I said, "Did you do that jump over the barbed wire in your movie" He said, "No, I wanted to, but they let the stunt man, Bud Ekins, do the jump."
We chatted for awhile, he introduced me to his agent, can't remember his name. The conversation turned to Dove hunting as this is why he was out early. He was looking for a good spot and a morning feeding area.
I told him I knew of several good spots as I had been hunting the area for the past couple of years. He said, "Tell you what, I'll meet you here opening morning about 4:00am and you can take me out to one of your good spots."
Wow!, Of course I agreed. I spent many early mornings before work and weekends scouting out just the right spot.
Fast forward a couple of weeks. I was at the coffee shop at 3:30 am, opening morning, even though I knew in my heart that he wouldn't show.
Here he came, by himself. I said, "Hey Stebo, found us a really good spot, lot's of White Wing." He said, "I've got a great place to shoot,....Dove all day long." He showed me an engraved invitation from Mike Ivy at his ranch. Now Mike Ivy didn't allow anyone access to his Ranch because he raised Quarter Horses for show. But he had Invited McQueen and a guest to come hunt on his ranch on opening morning.
We had our coffee and donuts and as he was parked right in front of me at the curb, he told me to follow him. He got in his big, black pick-up and even though I knew where Mike Ivy's ranch was, I followed him out there.
I parked my truck outside the gate and got into Steve's truck. We drove on into the ranch and I waited while Steve went up to the house. Mike Ivy came out and told Steve that he would have his Son take us out to where the best and safest shooting was. We got out to the spot just as it was getting light enough to see fairly well. Steve got behind the seat and pulled out his gun case, pulled out his shotgun. Fuck, this was the most beautiful gun I'd ever seen. It was an Ithica, Over and Under, 12ga, w/hunting scenes and birds engraved on the breech and stock. Silver and gold inlay with pearl. Man, He let me hold and look at that thing and I WANTED IT.
I pulled out my old Montgomery Ward side by side double barrel, 16ga. w/ the Styrene stock and forpiece and thought fuck, now I hve gun envy. To make a long story somewhat shorter, we had a great hunt, every Dove we shot was a White Wing, which are much larger than your standard Morning Dove, with much larger breasts. They knew where it was safe, as they were very seldom hunted in that area.
I got as many Dove as Stebo, if not a few more. He was a good shot, but not to brag, I was better. Mike Ivy had his Son use the dog so we didn't have to walk the fields to find downed birds. We got about 3 limits apiece as no game warden would be coming on Mike Ivy's property. We kept one limit, 10 birds each and gave the rest to Mike Ivy. Mike fixed us a great lunch. Needless to say, that was quite a day and one I still remember very fondly.
Steve McQueen was just a regular guy away from Hollywood. After that he started coming to our Motorcycle meetings (Coachella Valley Motorcycle club, (CVMC), District 16.) as he was an avid bike rider and loved off road racing. He raced a couple of our events untill the studio absolutley forbid him from doing anymore racing. But he did bring Lee Marvin and Keenin Winn (both these guys rode dirt bikes) to a couple of meetings. Me and Steve both rode Triumph 500cc bikes at the time.
Funny, when you get these people away from their usual environment and in a kick back setting, they are pretty cool. We'd be sitting around in the shop, sitting up on the work benches, drinking beer and the stories would flow. Keenin Winn, had the most foul mouth I ever heard but was funny as shit. Lot's of good times there. Sorry for the length of the story, but hey, It's all good for me.

| Very good story,
That must have been one of the best rushes you'd ever had, it's one thing to see these people in passing, but to get a chance to hang with them, that would be very special. You must have morned a bit when Steve passed away. |

He tried coffee enamas, Laetril, every treatment he could find, even went to that cancer center in Mexico after all conventional medicine failed. Ali McGraw was totally devistated. Yeah, he was a good guy.

| Actually Lee Marvin was a great guy. He told us some stories about when he was in the Marines. Some were hilarious and the one's about Iwo Jima were very sad. When he found out I was a Vietnam vet, he kind of warmed up to me and opened up some. People in the public eye have to be very careful about what they say and to whom.
I liked Lee alot. Pretty good bike rider also. We'd all go out back and ride up the washes and out into the sand. Awww shit, great memories. I loved him in the "Wild One".
