Wink Snipe Hunting

Has anyone ever been or ever taken anyone Snipe Hunting? For some reason it just popped into my head. Wondered if this was a Michigan thing or if other areas did this as well!

There are alot of Snipes here in the desert! They tend to come out more when they smell S'mores cooking on a bent up hanger over a fire thats being held by young and old alike!
I took a picture of one once!

Yeah...I think it's a common practice at most Boy Scouts first camp-out.I know that a few of us fell for it many years ago.

You just can't tell someone what Snipe Hunting is! They have to experience it for themselves.

The world record was taken here in southern Utah last summer. If you want good hunting come out this way and bring a big gunny sack.

Oh hell Black Beauty
Thats not as bad as when I crossed the Equator, You remember those days, Didn't you cross the Equator when you were in the U.S.Navy. I did twice but only had to get the (Snpies Treatment) Once because that was a official entry in your record.
