With old cowboy boots on fence posts out in the country?I'm in missouri right now hunting and one section has cowboy boots on every fence line pole as far as I can see,must be like the ghetto deal where they throw old nikes tied together on telephone lines??:;:huh

There used to be shoes on the fence going east out of Williston on 1804. Not sure what the story is. Kinda cool until they took them down...

This has been going on way before i was a young Lad. My Dad had them on many of our wooden fence posts too as well as other ranchers that we knew.

Yes, have seen that before. A guy north of Edgeley has bowling balls on every other fence post. Pretty crazy.

Aside from looking pretty neat, they make wooden posts last longer.

Well if your old enough you may remember the originsl message of boots on posts. It ment the last trespasser was not burried with his boots on.
