I don’t talk hunting much except with Bob. Or sometimes he is referred to as Bobby or we can use his nickname given to him by his friends – Buckless Bob.  And I don’t have to tell you why.  It’s one of those names that needs no explanation.  Poor Bob.

Bobby, as I refer to him as, is my hairdresser’s husband.  And every hunting season Bobby and I talk hunting.  Not by my choice of course.  And just as hunting season opens, Bobby will ask, “So I suppose Mark already got his 25 point buck.”  Because that’s what buckless Bobs say. And if I were a real hunter’s wife I’d carry a picture in my wallet to show Buckless what he’s missing.  But I’m not and … well … I’d rather not rub it in.

Poor Bob.

Because I’m not mean like that.

I focus on other things besides hunting, camouflage and big @ss bucks.

I just focus on hats above ears that remind me of  Devo that sings Whip It.  Whip it good.

When they sing -  “Crack that whip” now I’m ganna say, “Smack that buck”.

Have a good day all and here’s hoping Buckless Bob will have a new nickname when this hunting season ends.

The Idaho Department of Fish and Game Commission has voted 4-3 to approve a plan to let hunters shoot 220 wolves during a hunting season due to start in September.

The policy to shoot about one-quarter of Idaho’s estimated 880 wolves was approved during a meeting Monday in Idaho Falls.

The 220-wolf hunting quota was approved after commissioners voted 4-3 to reject a plan that would have allowed hunters to shoot up to 430 of the predators.

Last month, wildlife officials in neighboring Montana voted to let hunters shoot 75 wolves starting in mid-September.

Lawyers for environmental groups who have sued over the federal government’s May decision to delist wolves oppose such hunts, on grounds they could hurt efforts to help restore the animals’ population.
