of some of your stories of hunting on horseback...

I'm a peaceful man and prefer the pursuit of peaceful sports. Those involving teams and balls of any sort tend to be deleterious to one's body and promote violence by both spectators and participants.

That's a great song by a lady who knows horses.

I sure learned to listen to mine. Ole Hud taught me a lot. He loved to hunt and knew what we were doing. And he would look for game. If I rode up on top of a ridge and started looking the area over, he would also. If his ears went up and he started looking intently at a certain place I learned that there was something there, whether I could see it or not.

One day I rode up to the edge of a good size canyon and sat in the saddle looking the area over. Hud started to turn around, looking back past me. I turned him back to the canyon and he tried to turn around again. The third time he did this I let him turn and looked where he was was looking and there, less than 200 yards off, was a nice herd of Javelina feeding!

He taught me to listen!

I had a horse that would stick his nose in the air

The air towards Elk. He would also hold his breath when I put a gun to my shoulder until

Until I shot. You have to make sure you don’t shoot

Yessir. I normally had the gun 90 degrees to the side ...
