Treble hook is probably the best but Surely there are better tattoos out there. If these were my choices I would def not permanently ink my body!

I'm not big into tattoos, but I gotta say I think the treble hook is cool. Takes me back to the Cat fishin days. Kudos to you guys and your tats.

Some years ago, I measured a freshly killed whitetail deer for a man and when I finished the scoring, I showed the hunter the score sheet. He then proceeded to show me a tattoo that he had on his chest. The tattoo was of a buck with the statistics beneath. It read "15 points, 155 4/8 inches", that is exactly what the deer scored. Unreal!

Wow!
This really dismays me. I've always felt proud to share my OL and SA mags with my kids,grandkids, and their friends. This article tends to condone tattoos as though they are something every sportsman should be proud to have. As a former tat wearer I can tell you that most professional employers and employees frown on they like you've contacted a bad disease. Most tattoos are done on a whim to start out with. It was a day of annointing my head with a sizable amount of beverage while in the service and proclaiming my manhood at a sleazy tattoo parlour in Asia. The service gave summory Court Martials to those that got caught. Years later I paid mega $$ to rid my arms of what I had inked there-on. I couldn't get a great paying job until I was able to go to a employee interview without ink glowing from my fingers and hand.
Although tattoos are more acceptable today than they were in the past, the majority of higher paying employers and employees still frown on them. There is still a certain image conveyed to certain people by the wearing of a tattoo that still isn't being accepted in the professional world. It's sad, but it's true.
To the person with the elk and ? (it has antlers resembling a moose) I hope you can find another artist that can do something with it. You really covered a bunch of canvas with a very poor replica.

The athletic shoes retained many Air Jordan shoes elements, the uppers of shoes. From 1972 NIKE produced the first pair of cheap Jordan shoes, Bruin began to today's technology, NIKE changing in this 33 years. The Air Jordan Retro 1, to identify the focus has been community sports shoes. Michael Jordan shoes, this is not the first time, the color of this view, because we have a package of 2010. Watch this Jordan Retro shoes, you can see the next season to Wade. lin

Additional Info

Many of our readers love the outdoor sports so much that they've inked them onto their bodies, permanently. These 25 tattoos are our picks for the best ones entered into our 2010 Hunting and Fishing Tattoo contest. The winner is "The Tattooed Angler," for the Suick musky bait on his forearm, which we though was the most original of the bunch. He wins a SEAL Pup Elite and PowerLock multitool combo, and the two runners up get a Revolver Hunter knife, all from our friends at S.O.G. Knives.
