Planted osage, red mulberry, and pecan trees for bow wood, Arrowwood Viburnum for arrers, Jerusalem artichokes to eat, white pine for tea, and a few other assorted things for future study. My woods are full of aromatic sumac for lemonade, an overgrown field full of black berries and sasafrass. Lots of good stuff to keep me busy for a while.

Wynn, I would imagine he was carrying two guns, one in each hand as to not be visible (at least one of them) above the level of the grass or willows which came waist high or so. As has been suggested, he squeezed one between his legs so as not to lay it down, took a shot with the other gun, dropped it and retrieved the second gun from between his legs and brought it to his shoulder for a second shot which he didn't take since the Indian ran off through the fairly tall plant material they were all walking in.

You will see where I was the one who first pointed it out. Friend John provided additional support. I think in response. To the I picture post that followed mine and proceeded John's response. John and I were on another list together for quite a while. He comes out and across with some really good stuff when something sparks his interest. All I caught was your question and that was the way I worked it out in my head. But I could have been wrong because dropping to one knee as written. Is a good reliable steady shooting postion. I was taught the classic four shooting postions more than 50 years ago. I worked it down to....Except fact it would have been quicker for me to have handled placing one between my knees which I have done before. Your question: How come I couldn't figure that one out? Is one of the best parts of this ML list. Sharing information in a good way.
