Master of the Game Tab Added

Hello everybody. I have created a new tab at the top of the blog to showcase all of the recipients of the Master of the Game award. We hadn't finalized the rules of the award system until this year, so I went back and awarded the hunters since we started hunting at Buzzard Bluff.

Congratulations to Rob Vinson for winning this year's Master of the Game Award.

I have also updated the Trophy Board tab with this year's harvest of deer.

2014 BBHE Hunting Video

Here it is!!!

I worked hard to get this year's video out faster than I did the last few years. After watching the finished version of the video I noticed that I left out a few good photos from the Rib Fest party, but other than that, the video looks really GREAT!. I will also post the video over to the right with all of the other BBHE videos.

BBHE 2013 Video is finished!!!!

With only 6 days to spare, I finally finished the Buzzard Bluff Hunting Extravaganza 2013 video. Whew!!!!

2012 Hunting Video

The 2012 Buzzard Bluff Hunting Extravaganza video is finally complete.

HEAD COUNT

Only 34 days to wait until the deer hunt. It is getting down to crunch time. I am very excited.

HEAD COUNT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have updated the menu tab with the Buzzard Bluff Hunting Extravaganza 2014 Menu. Everybody is invited to join us in any meal, but the one main meal that we are planning on having extra visitors is the Saturday night rib fest (11/15/14). For planning purposes (because I am an SOB – Son of Bob – and I like to plan a little in advance) I would like to have an official head count for that meal for that meal. Although I have thrown some hum-dinger parties in my life, I have never cooked for so many people at a campfire, so I want to make sure that I have all of the plastic forks polished, plates cleaned, and enough food for everybody. Nobody, I mean NOBODY, is allowed to leave the camp hungry. If you do it will be your own darn fault, not mine.

Répondez s'il vous plaît and let me know how many will be in your party.

If there happens to be rain on Saturday (Please God no!) then the rib fest will be postponed until the next dry night and we will all load up and meet the out-of-town guests (Bob & JoKitt) at a restaurant in town.

Are you up to the challenge again?

Good Morning Boys:

 

Yes, it is that time of year again, only 58 more days. Time to start thinking about what we are going to eat while we sit around the campfire and telling lies about what we did while hunting and killing animals. Yep, this kind of stuff isn’t for the faint of heart. Only the men of men have what it takes to belly up to this bar and trade licks with the likes of us. For those who have the “Right Stuff” and can survive until the next meal, you will be rewarded with sustenance that will fuel your engines and build your stamina so you can re-enter the arena and fight again.

 

If you’re thinking something fancy-schmancy, then you should probably sit this one out and come back when you become a real hunter. Our motto is, “If it doesn’t hurt when you eat it, then it aint worth eating.” Our coffee is served with a knife and fork, the beans are scraped from the bottom of the pot, and all of the meat is served jerky style. If you’re not up to the challenge, then you might consider moving back in with your mom and letting her cut your meat for you. There is no space around the campfire for people like you.

 

This year, the menu will probably look very similar to the menu from last year because the response was overwhelmingly positive. We consider a positive response any meal that doesn’t end with uncontrolled projectile vomiting, botulism, or salmonella. Last year everybody was POSITIVE that all of the food was not fit for human consumption.

 

However, nothing is set in stone. If you have any special requests, or if you feel up to cooking something special for the boys, then now is the time to voice your opinion. To request a change to the menu, simply mail a letter to the Buzzard Bluff Hunting Association, c/o Vice-President of Gastro Stimulation, P.O. Box 275896, Rudy, Arkansas. All requests must be received in the office no later than noon on the second Tuesday of the first week of October. All requests that do not arrive in time for the deadline will be processed into toilet paper to be used during the 2014 hunting season.

 

Cooler space is limited so it is important that the Gastro Stimulation department have an accurate head-count so that the correct amount of supplies can be flown in. The menu committee needs to know who will be attending which meals. If you sign up for a meal and are unable to attend said meal, the food supplies that you ordered and did not use will be air dropped onto the windshield of your car sometime between Monday and Friday of the week following the annual hunt, between the hours of 7:00am and 10:00pm. You will be responsible for all damages that may result from the air drop.

 

The same rules apply this year as they did last year. For all of you numb-skulls that have already forgotten the rules, I will review them again.

 

1.            The cook does NOT have to clean dishes, pots, pans, and eating utensils after each meal. He has sacrificed much to ensure that you have a camping culinary experience that is second to none. If you don’t care enough to do a little clean-up after the meal, then he may, at his discretion, urinate or spit in the next meal he prepares for you.

2.            Anybody who complains about the quality of any meal will be required to prepare the next meal. (“It tastes like shit, but GOOD shit”)

 

That is all for now. It is time to start polishing your guns, sharpening your knives, and pulling your hunting clothes out of the closet. Shine your boots and get ready for the Fifth Annual Buzzard Bluff Hunting Extravaganza.

We are half way through August. Just three months more. That means it is time to start planning our 2014 Buzzard Bluff Hunting Extravaganza!

As of right now we have the dates set. Click on the tab above labeled "2014 Hunting Dates" to see the details.

I have also added a few photos from last year's hunt under the tab "2013 Trophy Board".

I am not sure when the videos for the previous two years will be completed. It will be done when it is done. I have to be inspired to work on that stuff.
