When I was a kid I hunted several mixed hardwood lowlands (the banks of the Neches, the San Pedro, and many others unnamed) in east texas (where it is mostly pines now AKA The Piney Woods) There used to be ALOT of redoak, pecan, pignut, black walnut, hickernut, and Chinquapin trees. Every once in awhile you would find persimmon, ironwood, tickletongue, and a few other odds and ends. All in all I found the best hunting in the world in these patches. Many a deer, rabbit, possum, coon, and squirrel were taken there. Now they are cow pastures that flood every time it sprinkles. . . .

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. - John 3:16 KJV
Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun. - Ecclesiastes 8:15 KJV
"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
