... one of the things that made America great ... (still is) ... (still does) ...
 
Some Thembu/Xhosa clan member, some referred to as Madiba, Rolihlahla, and Nelson at different stages of life-was an Excellent boxer!!! "Smokin' Joe" once came to a famous hotdog place just down the street from where I grew up...a small crowd gathered 'round in reverence!

Yeah ... I once gave a talk about boxing and used Mandela and TR as examples ...

Also ... I spent an afternoon hangin' with Smokin' Joe one time back in the day ... Emile Griffith was also there ... funny story ... I have it written down somewhere but I'll have to see if I can find it ...

Here's the pic of Mandela that I used ... :) ...

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
