Real Tree Hugger Volome 2

I received many replies,comments and emails regarding the first blog about the Tree Hugger Song! Thats a good thing...but I think there may be some confusion out there about the song's purpose so here goes Volume 2....

The Real Tree Hugger Song is NOT meant to be a tool to condemn or Judge another human being. I wrote the song in response to those who were and are JUDGING ME for hunting and fishing for the food I eat!

I also point out in the song that we hunters and fishermen spend countless hours and millions of dollars every year actually PRESERVING habitat and the species that we are harvesting and consuming.

We don't need to condemn anyone! God gave us these creatures for FOOD acording to the Bible and until anyone can give me "Orders From Headquarters" otherwise....I'll keep following the orders I have right now!

Lastly.....This one is for the Anti-Hunters...Please don't tell me I should go to the store and purchase a bunch of man made stuff being sold as food! You can keep the Diabetis,Heart Disease & Cancer....Thanks Anyway!



So now we have the subject of the hate filled emails to me and other hunters and outdoorsman. I take my faith seriously so I don't return the emails with the same tone. However...I am a song writer so I did pull a slight "Taylor Swift" and write a song in response to their annual ritual!

Pick It or Kill It!

Great blog title huh?

Its a great topic for many different reasons! You cant turn on the TV or read any news without hearing lots of scary things about the price of food, the scarcity of food in other countries, genetically modified food and the declining health of the American people!

First...if you break out the ole Bible and do a little reading you'll find that God highly recommends the "Pick It or Kill It" meal plan. Yes...there are some plants, animals,seeds, nuts and veggies stuff that are better than others but the main theme is eat stuff the way God made it!

Second....if you have a freezer full of actual FOOD that you harvested yourself you are not subject to the whims of the "Big Food" lobby and their friends at multiple Federal Government Agencies.....be self sufficient!

Third....Sugar,fake sugar and processed foods will KILL you and are more addictive than Cocaine! This is a fact and is the cause of most of our major illness such as Heart Disease, Diabetes(Type 2) and most cancers....that's right...we are killing ourselves!

Why am I blogging about this?

Because I strongly believe that "The Life" of a Hardcore Huntin' and Fishin' Bum is about being close to God in His creation. This life is NOT about being a slave physically and emotionally because of decisions we make about the food we eat and the sugar we ingest through many kinds of drinks.

In short...Live the best life you can live! That's what we're all about around here. I want you to live "The Life" and live it as long as you can...Lord willing and the creek don't rise!

I know many of you Already live this way and GOD BLESS YOU! Please share your experience here by leaving a comment....no judging going on here just a challenge for all of us to LIVE the LIFE of a Hardcore Huntin' & Fishin' Bum!

The Fish Are On The Beds!

Its one of my favorite times of the year! The Bass are on the beds and the fishing action is picking up...Even on Saturday when it was only 33 degrees we caught over 25 Bass and a few nice Crappie...or Specks as they call them in Louisiana!

The cool thing is that I know there are people getting fired up to fish all across North America for many different species of fish!

Here's what I want to know.....What are you getting fired up to fish for?

Here at the Hardcore Huntin' and Fishin' Nation "We Command The Outdoors" and that means we hunt and fish for EVERYTHING! How about you?

The Life Of A Fishin' Bum!

The Life Of A Fishin' Bum?

That's what we were last night right here in Berryville, VA!

I got to hang out with a couple of great guys who some of you may recognize?

On the top left is James (J-Mo) Montgomery, Fly Rod Chronicles camera man, production Guru, guitar player extraordinaire and Certified Fishin' Bum!

On the right we have Curtis Fleming, 2010 Outdoor Show Host Of The Year & Producer of the Award Winning Fly Rod Chronicles TV show on the Sportsman's Channel.

We started the evening by catching some largemouth bass and crappie in a ten acre spring fed pond on Long Pond Farm.....we could have shot a great show with all the action we had! As the Sun was setting we grabbed our guitars and gathered around a good fire and started playing around with the "Fishing Bum" song idea thinking about The Brazos River Ranch in New Mexico as well as the Elk River right here in West by God Virginia. The setting was perfect and being in the company of two Certified Fishin' Bums helped me hammer out the song in fairly short order...What a night!

Curtis shot a little video on his iPhone of me singing a little bit of the song so we could send a MMS to Bo Prieskorn at Brazos River Ranch to get him fired up! Check out the video below!

Huntin' Hottie?

Really?



Did you know that the fastest growing segment of the hunting industry is the ladies?



Is this a good thing?

Absolutely!



For the last 40 years our society has been telling women that they should be to thin....wear the latest fashion.....and many other things that really don't play any role in building a Spiritual life!



As a matter of fact most "Pop Culture" has a VERY negative affect on your Spiritual life and the result is.....well.......in a word....Charlie Sheen! LOL



Hunting and Fishing are proving to be positive influences on our Spiritual life and is why I believe they are joining us in HUGE numbers every year...They are tired of the POP CULTURE LIES!



This is why I decided to write and record Hardcore Huntin' Hotties! The song is a tribute to them and how much this hunter & fisherman enjoys having them take part in our great TRADITION!



I would love to hear some feedback from some of these awesome ladies that are fairly new to hunting and fishing to hear how it has affected their lives in a positive way?

The Life Of A Duck Dog!

On July 30th 2010 my friend Zealy and his family went through something all animal lovers dread....there hunting dog and companion Sprig had wandered to close to a road and was struck by a vehicle...and left on the side of the road to die.

Fortunately for Sprig he was found by his family and rushed to a vet and the story begins from there. Why am I blogging about Sprig? Because "The Life" we live as hunters and outsoorsman often include a loyal animal like Sprig they are just as important to that life as our friends and family....heck....they are FAMILY!

I want to ask my friends who can afford to let loose of a few dollars to click on the word Sprig and read his story and then click on the donate button and do what you can. Zealy and his family did a great job saving Sprig and we can surely give them a little help in retiring what I know is a HUGE vet bill!

I have posted "The Life" below to give you a little inspiration...Thanks in advance!
