The elk are all in the freezer and it’s time to do something different! Today it’s a short trip to town for needed supplies (beer) and some Christmas shopping.
And I think I have found the gift that would be perfect for the hunter on your list who also is the one you call on to help you with your garden in the Spring Time!
Many months ago, maybe years (like 2 or less), I contacted Barnes bullet company and asked them if they thought it feasible to make a bullet out of some bio-friendly material that would be capable of carrying a payload of seeds. My idea was that in areas devastated by fire the bullets carrying seeds could be shot from guns and cover the landscape where the fire ravaged it.
I really had only thought about having the military people use those projectiles to ran-sack the country side and plant the seeds using 50 caliber machine guns and Huey type guns and be able to plant a billion and six seeds all over a fire area. They could hold some sort of “excersize” in the area, co-or din the area off to keep people and animals out and do their shooting!
I see it as a totally feasible thing.
Well, today I heard bout a company that sells shotgun shells that are loaded with seeds! “Flowershells.com”! Yes! http://www.flowershell.com/
Checkemout!
A bit on the pricey side for me, but for your reloaders out there…give em hell Harry!
I’ll have a box of Wildflower mix and some Daffodills!
