Bear Saint Paw

The property we bought last year in SW MO. already had several "No Trespassing" signs on trees around the 2 sides that were bordered by Gravel or black top roads. I saw where several had been but only a piece of the sign was left and the nails, most likely hit by tree limbs. So I took a couple cans of purple paint and painted trees in areas that I thought a 4x4, SxS, or ATV might try to enter. I think most everyone around there is respectful and after purchase we discovered some of the "In-laws" own the property on one side and another bought the property south of us! So in a matter of speaking, we kept the property "in the family" and I think that will help keep people off it while we are away. With all the signs posted I suspect at some time there was issues with trespassers, I imagine people not from the immediate area, I still carry a cordless hole puncher when we're on the property working or scouting it out. Plus there are bobcats, coyotes, possibly a rare bear or mountain lions in the area as well.

Good for you and your family, Jim! I still have the leather rig (Belt, holsters, SG belt) from you as my only setup and still shoot the Rodeo's I got from you. You'll be about the same distance from me, maybe 10-15 minutes closer, only now you'll be east not northwest... Well until we do the same next year when my wife retires and we move to MO. close to the area where we're from, Where 2 boys and 4 grandkids are as well as my brother and dad are (He turned 90 in February). Safe travels!

I received a similar email notification regarding a gun belt but then when I tried to go to the actual message on here, it's gone!

Well isn't that a convenient coincidence!!
