I found some nikon binoculars sitting at the base of a tree while small game hunting in croom last season. Gave them to my 15yr old to use, he loves them.

I also found a backback full of hunting stuff a couple of years ago in Green swamp.

The coolest thing I ever found when hunting is probably my giant 10 point I shot a few minutes earlier, or maybe the deer my son shot,that's always cool. I have found a few good points and one badass hide scraper made ny the original buckmasters.

About 20 years ago, while hunting elk in my native Colorado, I saw what looked like a piece of bone or the tip of a horn sticking out of a creek bed. Got kind on curious and dug it out with a stick. It was a complete bison skull, soaking wet and packed with mud. I went back to camp and got a pack frame and packed it about 5 miles out. I don't know what it weighed, but I'd guess it was somewhere around 80-90 lbs.

After the season, I washed it off as best I could and noticed the horns looked a little different that a normal bison. Mind you, it ddn't have the horn sheaths, just the bone core. I made an appointment with a guy at the Denver Museum of Natural History to have it checked out. He told me it was a skull to one of the extinct types of bison known as the Mountain bison. These disappeared long before the white man ever set foot the continent. I offered it to the museum, but he stated they had several already. So, I kept it.

It's pretty cool finding something like that under those conditions. I've got it laying in the corner of the fireplace in my trophy room. Now I always wonder what's lying under the surface of a creek when I see one.
