Turkeygirl Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? The experiences - good and bad - that God has given me and gotten me through. I may not be sure right now what God wants for me in His will but without the experiences I've had, I wouldn't have learned much. Can't take anything with me to heaven but if something material, I would say my box of shed antlers. Each one is unique and I had to work hard for them.

NYBUCK Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? Well if we are talking about material things then I guess my gun cabinet would be my most prized. I bought it when we got first married and it lived through all four of our kids and their friends. By that I mean kids fighting, throwing things, bouncing balls ect. ect. It is solid oak with deer etching in the glass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christsavedme Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? First and foremost would be the saving grace my Father in Heaven gave me, then my family, then I guess would have to be my hunting stuff!

Swamphunter Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? Possession other than family....it would be my old .410 shotgun that I inherited from my Grandpa after he died. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

need2hunt Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? [ QUOTE ] for those who don't think family is a possession, wait until they are gone.... [/ QUOTE ] Steve, to me a possession is something I own and control, I would never say that I own my wife and kids or any other part of my family. And while I do try to teach, direct and help my children grow, in the end I don't control them in the way that I would consider them a possession. When they are gone will I miss them, yes more than anything - but having love for someone is way different than possessing something. Just my viewpoint.

dg Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? I was walking around the house trying to find an answer and didn't really find anything! It's all replaceable. Other than family, I 'd have to say health. I can walk, talk, hear and see. That's good enough for me........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tominator Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? I'm with Gary, philosophically, I don't think you can possess a human, but, that's JMHO. Material possessions I prize most, I can think of 3. My dad's 870 Wingmaster (first gun I ever shot), my 1963 Oliver 770, and my "Cancer Survivor" pin.

Guest Finn Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? Yeah, I think of possessions being things I can buy or obtain. I don't think anyone values their vehicle, bow, rifle or even golf clubs, more than a family member. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerClay Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? I have several. I don't think I can pick just one. The top three would be, a gold K of C pocket watch from one Grandfather who inspired me to join the Knights of Columbus. I have a Hopkins Allen double barrel shotgun that belonged to to my other Grandfather. It is the only thing I have from him. The third is a can of Jim Beam and coke that I believe was given to me from God (it's a long story). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUGARKAHNE Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? My most prized possession? Hmm, that would probably be my chapstick! Seriously, I can't live without it!

NEIOWAARCHER Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? If there is something I love more than any other it's my family. But there not possesions. If there is a possesion that I like more than the rest it's a tie between my truck and my bow. 2002 Chevy sliverado 2500 HD Crew. And my 2006 Browning illusion.

coles Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? other than family i would say my marlin .22 that my dad bought me with the money from the lever action .243 that was his grandpa's. dad thought his grandpa would rather see me have that then the .243 sit in the closet forever. oh yeah and my yellow lab belle. she's almost 9 and is getting hard of hearing. im not lookin forward to they day she goes to the big marsh in the sky.

AdvantageTimberLou Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? My family. Without my wife and my 2 little girls I have nothing. All the possessions I own mean nothing if they are not in my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Re: Prized Possesion?? The wife and kids are more important and valuable to me than anything in this world, but would not consider them to be things I possess. Think my mounts would be my most prized possessions.
