ODYSSEUS TRUNK: rifle

Showing posts with label rifle. Show all posts

It's amazing how long you wait for a trophy to hang on your wall after taking it. This magnificent, Olive Baboon was shot in 2012 near Tete, Mozambique. He was the troop leader and definitely had command of it. I am not really interested in shooting primates but when this bruiser crossed my path I had a change of heart. He now hangs proudly, in my front room, scaring the shit outta everyone who walks in the door.

Colorado Recall - Lesson Learned

My Kinda Guy

My buddy was dirt biking in Granby, Colorado and happened upon this Ford, Econoline Pickup in the staging area. Check the stickers..the fraternity of dudes that fly NRA, Ducks Unlimited and Dead stickers is a very small one. My kinda guy. Sweet ride also.

Stetson - The Open Road - My New Lid

My father's Uncle Trifono Kochiovelos (TDK) was a pivotal figure in my youth and sense of style. He was a Pueblo, CO Sheriff, sheep rancher and 'real man' before the term existed. He raised my father and three siblings. He had a roll top desk. So did I. I inherited his Winchester 1873, two Colt, Army Special .38's and a love of his Stetson, The Open Road. Unfortunately, I didn't get the hat. I got one now. He was not alone in appreciating an iconic piece of men's haberdashery.
