Default The Original LA Sportsmen
Thought some of you might enjoy this pic that I had transferred to a CD. Picture of my grandpa and several other guys after a successful bear hunt in the Atchafalaya basin. He lived in Port Barre, LA - don't know where the rest of the gang was from, but have to imagine the same area...

This is one of my favorite family pics...

You gotta pump a lotta lead BB's into a bear to kill it with a shotgun...

Must have been fun and EXCITING.

Great picture.

Do you have any idea when this was taken?

Looking at the 2 cars in the picture....I would guess early 40's.

Yes, you are correct. Pic was taken in the early 40's, but my dad doesn't know the exact year. He said they were actually hunting somewhere around Avery Island...
