Anyone got any good stories? Lost a pair of ray bans this afternoon. Retraced my steps about 200 yards from the truck and couldn't find them. Gonna go back this week and look. I need a good "find" story right about now...I've lost a release and a cell phone before but generally had them pin pointed and came back after a few days for the phone and a couple weeks on the release.

I found a Honda 4-wheeler key at our gate yesterday. I put it in the sign out building.
I lost a good pocket knife in Perry County.
Octoberdreamin found a nice pair of binoculars on a stump several years ago in Perry County. I don't think he ever figured out who they belonged to.

I lost my phone at the end of last season. We had gotten a tractor and bushhog stuck near by and left the cutter in the mud earlier that season. When we were able to get the cutter out and back home I found the phone stuck in the hitch. Some one put it there and don't know who. Wasn't me. Maybe a turkey hunter passing through.


It be's that way sometimes.

My pistol fell off my toolbox one day. It's a camo NRA edition. It feel into waste high sage grass. Looked for two hours with three people helping me. Decided to take a break and come back later. Returned a few hours later, seen the holster in the side of the road, started looking,about 15 minutes, I found it about 10 yards of the road. Miracle.

Lost my work phone while hunting. Of course I had it on vibrate only. Went in after dark and called it. Luckily found it face down.

Cousin lost his 9mm one night while we were tracking a deer he shot. Went back the next day and couldn't believe that we found it as we were just walking thought the pine thicket

I can't count the gloves I have lost. Only thing I loose, but I carry AT LEAST TWO PAIR, every time I go in the woods because of this.

I found some really funny pictures of some black folks after the April 27th tornadoes. Felt pretty bad though because I realized some of the people in the pictures probably lost their home or even their life.

We had walkie talkies one year. I was way up on a mountain , shot a deer and lost the radio tracking. Went back next day and found it. Worst part was going all that way back.

My bro lost a pair of Raybans or Maui Jim's planting food plots one year. He looked and looked and didn't find em. I almost stepped on em opening day of bow season. He was glad to get em back. A little dirty but they cleaned up fine.

I was bush hogging green fields at some property I had leased several years ago. The fields were so thick I was taking my front end loader and pushing the grass out of the field and piling it up in the edges. About the time I drove out of the field something felt weird and I reached to check my wallet and it had fell out at some point over the last hour of working. I had probably 2 or 3 truck beds full of crap piled up around the field and the rest was scorched earth. The bad part was I had about 800 cash in it plus all my ID and cards. I freaked out. I was sweating bullets thinking about digging through all that stuff. I walked the field 4 or 5 times and finally there it was. It had fell out and opened up and I had pushed the bucket over it and mashed it perfectly flat with the dirt and covered it. The only reason I spotted it was a strait crack in the dirt that ran along its edge and I dug it out. I check it every few minutes now to make sure it's still in my pocket.

If you'll take a few rubber bands and wrap around your wallet, it makes it harder for it to slip out of your pocket... wink

Me and Dad were turkey hunting once on a WMA up here. We hiked and hiked all over this dang mountain. We would hear a gobble, hike, and set down for a few minutes. Continue that pattern for a couple of hours. At some point when we sat down in a "good" spot. At that moment I realized that I didn't have my shot gun. I must of set it down against a tree. We started backtracking the best we could. I had small hope of finding a camo gun on 60,000 acres of woods. Believe it or not, we found it, right where I had left it.


The fool tells me his reasons; the wise man persuades me with my own.

If you leave it in the toolbox on the tractor it makes it harder to fall out of your pocket too.

My grandad was breaking ground for a dove field when I was young and lost his wallet while on the tractor.
We walked and walked and walked that field but couldn't find it.
Next day he gets back on he tractor and turns field over one more time and then found his wallet.

I haven't used a traditional wallet in over twenty years. Its been proven a fat wallet can cause back problems. I use one that holds cards and cash, but goes in front pocket.

I also use a thin wallet, less stuff the better.
For me I rarely have cash on me.
