I purchased a martin warthog bow a year or so ago. I have been told its in very good condition but was missing some stuff. I picked up the 8 arrow quiver but I had to purchase another old bow to get it but it is the correct one at least. A friend of mine brought me s martin deerslayer sight and I put a new arrow rest on it too. Was wondering if anyone knows exactly what sight was used on the one in the show? I got the 3 pin deerslayer sight on it now and it looks good but I don't think that was the one. Definitely a cool old school wood bow. Just trying to get as close as I can to the one on the show.

Hands up, I know nothing about archery, but I found a discussion about the Dukes of Hazzard bows at www.archerytalk.com. They said, "The original Warthog had a deerslyer [sic] 300 sight on it."

same here, except I was 14!!

Watched the very first episode in January 1979. I was 4 years old. Man that was a long time ago

Well I haven't been here in a bit. The business we opened up wound up doing very well but taking up a lot of time as well but it is what it is. Wanted to answer the question that it isn't the one in north Carolina. I live in a small town called Plainville in Georgia, its between Rome and Calhoun. The garage/boars nest im talking about is just outside of Shannon ga towards Kingston Ga. The guy has a General Lee, a 69 F350 cooters tow truck, a daisy jeep and a hazzard patrol car. The garage is awesome and the boars nest is built to the RH side of the garage. Has the correct jukebox and pinball machine as seen from the show. Even has the machine that has the huge bands that Boss Hogg was using to shake the fat away lol. It's really neat how far he has put into it as in detail. He also has a toy section and there is alot of cool stuff there too.

To be honest, I'm not much of a drinker, and if I have a pint it's likely to be lager or maybe ale. I don't dislike Guinness, and it does taste different here, but I can't remember the last time I had one. My friend likes the 0.0 alcohol-free Guinness which I might try sometime since I usually have my car with me.

My guess is they don't know how to figure the century's!!

Just realized how much this car looks like Dale Earnhardts wrangler car.

I've just checked out their website - luraycaverns.com - and they're very impressive. One thing that confused me - if they were discovered in 1878, why does the tour guide wear an 18th century costume (I'm quoting the video)? That would date from at least 79 years before the caves were discovered!

The Cooters in the Smokies is pretty nice too!

We went down to our daughter's in Winchester Virginia Thursday (home of Patsy Cline) but didn't really have any plans to do anythjng in particular. We go there at least twice a year and have pretty much done everything in the area but had never been to Luray Caverns. (It is unbelievable!) When we were leaving I remembered that Cooter's was somewhere near there so my daughter looked it up and we were only 7 miles away! We didn't stay long because I was the only person of 6 who was interested but it was incredible. I almost want to call it a spiritual experience but that bothers me a little to use that word since I believe in God but that place is definitely Hazzard Heaven on Earth. I am going to keep an eye on the schedule and go down again next time they have a big event. I hate to travel but who knows what will happen to the place after Ben passes on to Hazzard Heaven so I definitely want to go back for something big. BTW Ben wasn't there. He lives 45 minutes away though. I tried to get some people to join HazzardNet but see they haven't yet. I am still in awe over Cooter's. You would think that you couldn't top something like Luray's Cavern. It is one of the most amazing natural wonders on Earth. But Crazy Cooter pulled it off just a few minutes later.

Happy Easter to all my cousins in Hazzard County!

I think we need more details, Roger.

Yes he did win Michael Keaton

I'm watching the one where Lulu is kidnapped and the Duke Boys are set to rescue her! ( right now Bo's unconcious in a trailer heading down hill!)

Watching dirt bike races right now. They are racing in Detroit.....Lions Stadium

Since December 31, 2023 - he was 84.

I've never heard or seen this. I'll definitely be looking for it! I'm looking for an Irish beer around here, that I like! LOL!

Awesome, I will look that up and see what it looks like. Just picked up a 4 pin sight from ebay and it looks good but im not sure exactly if that one is it either. They made several different deerslayer sights depending on the year I think. I just picked up another bow from ebay with a different deerslayer sight from the two I have. At least I will have a few to choose from

I found them when I was 9. TNN 1996.

It was One Armed Bandits. Repo Men was 3rd and Mary Kaye's Baby 4th. But they aired Repo 4th and Mary Kaye's Baby 3rd. Swamp Molly is actually the 2nd CA filmed episode. Luke's Love Story is the first CA episode. But they aired Swamp Molly first.

Hey, I just thought of something! It's not important but I think it would be interesting..... WHAT ARE YOUR DAILY/WEEKLY DOH WATCHING HABITS? I watch TDOH every night when I go to bed until I fall asleep. Sometimes I'll watch it at other times during the night but 99% of the time, it's at night before I go to bed. It calms me and makes me feel good and it's easy to sleep like that. I might watch some a little earlier tonight! So....what are your watching habits?

Rashers are what the Irish call slices of bacon (back, streaky etc.) that you'd have for breakfast, so they're actually mentioned twice in the fillings. Unless it's related to breakfast, bacon in Ireland usually refers to the boiled meat served in dishes such as bacon and cabbage.

That's so cool that you saw the original episode on the first night....even though you were little. I was just thinking.....was Repo men the first episode? I thought it was " One Armed Bandits"....????......just asking....

We were 14 and not old enough to drive, so DOH on a Friday night was the big time!

Back when the show was airing it was so popular that that it caused Friday Night Football attendance to drop across America. Nobody had VCRs so you only had one chance to see it and nobody knew DVDs would be invented. My girlfriend knew that we wouldn't be going out on any Friday night dates!

It's hard to believe you and John are the same age Roger! That's wild! You're about 6 1/2 yrs. older than me! I turn 61 on Aug. 31

I was born the day John Schneider turned one week old so we both will be 66 next month. I was in the USMC stationed in North Carolina after getting out of boot camp in South Carolina. A lot of young Marines were talking about it so I watched it in the recreation room. I think it was Repo Men episode but I'm not positive. Been a superfan ever since. I'm glad it came out after boot camp so I can say I actually saw a Georgia episode on the night it debuted. (the ep, not the series). In boot camp we went 3 months without TV, radio, or a telephone. That's so cool that you saw the original episode on the first night....even though you were little.

I wish I could help you. It's so awesome you are replicating it. I have an Excalibur Axiom crossbow but have only shot it twice. Looks nothing like anything on Dukes. It's good to hear from you again.

I watched the A-Team save a mission yesterday. And at the end I saw something amazing. Miz Tisdale hugging Mr T. So cool! I wonder if he told her she had to take a number to get a hug.

After a last minute invite, I got to walk in the St Patrick's Day parade today. It's fun being in it, but it does mean that I didn't get to see many of the other participants. Luckily, the weather stayed dry, but it turned cold afterwards. Combine the cold weather with the busy pubs and I decided to delay my Guinness.

I'm thinking that I might try a Guinness today. I mentioned ale above - have you ever tried it, Hobie. I see they sell Smithwick's in 14.9 oz cans in the US.

OK my fellow Hazzardites....it's Dukes Of Hazzard Day! Happy DOHD!!! I'm about to watch Jeopardy ( a special celebrity edition but around 8:00pm central....I'll have my DVDs of TDOH.....I'll tell you what I'm watching, in case anybody's here and wants to watch with me! I'm about to partake of the spirits....Natural Ice ( Ice beer is my favorite! ) and finish Jeopardy! I hope everybody is having a great DOHD ! Hey, Hoss, your Irish song stuff is excellent! I love Irish music......because I'm Irish on both sides of my family? I HATE Guiness....so....???? But the music is excellent! THANK YOU! Right now...I'm watching Ding Dong The Boss Is Dead!

The General Lee is the STAR of the show.

Here's another Irish musician who remains a perennial favorite. I've just realized that this song is slightly older than me! Van Morrison - Moondance

Hazzard County is a great PLACE to live.

I just got home and am exhausted from traveling. Will provide more later.

I'm about to watch Jeopardy and the news and then......you guessed it! I'm about to speak with the spirits in a little bit....... 2 Milwaukee's Best Ice that I have left! I'll probably go out and get more tomorrow! I hope Garrett's ok and I sure hope our supreme superior leader is doing well! I miss both of them! In the words of Roscoooo P. Cooootrane! " Good news good news! " I've just discovered, when I went to get my beer from the frig....I've got not 2.....but 3!! ( I will have to go out and get more tomorrow though!! .....to prepare for DOHD and the weekend! )

Happy birthday Tuesday Lulu. We miss you sweetheart!

Dukes is all about KINFOLK.

Hobie... So when you go to bed, The Dukes watch you? 😂

Of course it counts. Any songs with one word titles are welcome. I've just been concentrating on Irish songs around St Patrick's Day. Incidentally, Abba won the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest with 'Waterloo', and Christy Moore wrote 'Lisdoonvarna' for the 1978 contest, but it didn't make it through to represent Ireland.

Right now, I'm watching Trump and Fox News and looking at our site.....I'll be watching Duke boys here in a bit when I go to bed. OH....and of course you know I'm communing with the spirits.....Natural Ice.....I can sleep in, a little tomorrow......wife doesn't have to be at work but she has a Dr's appt. at 10 in Cookeville...so....I'm still looking forward to doing what all decent Hazzardites will do tomorrow.....on DOHD.....watch TDOH, especially tomorrow night.

Like The Blizzards (above), brothers Frank and Seán O'Meara are from Mullingar. They wrote this song based on the true story of Grace Gifford's marriage to Joseph Plunkett in Kilmainham Gaol. Plunkett was one of the leaders of the 1916 Easter Rising, and was executed by the British just hours after the wedding. It's a heart-wrenching and poignant ballad that's a bit different to the songs I've posted recently. The Wolfe Tones - Grace

Staying on the Irish theme... Mundy - July

DOH is the QUINTESSENTIAL good time show!!

Emma Tisdale must be Irish then.

That's because you have! And we are lucky to have you. A lot of people hang out a few days and then we never hear from them again but I can tell you are different....and I mean that as a compliment!

Good to hear from you. I'm like you....pretty bad with technology. I bet Hoss can find a link to that place and post it if you let us know what town it is near.

Just spotted this blooper in 'The Runaway' while I was looking through scenes with Daisy's Road Runner to research my latest artistic effort. Bo has to squeeze Daisy's car between the 2 patrol cars, so he hits a ramp and drives on 2 wheels with his side in the air. The in-car shot, however, has the car tilted the other way. I think the studio shot was filmed level, they got John to tilt his head in the correct direction, but titled the camera the wrong way. It reminded me of the blooper in from the James Bond movie 'Diamonds are Forever' (skip to about 4 minutes in). His Mach 1 Mustang enters the alleyway on it's right wheels, and exits on the left.Maybe this was just an undocumented feature of American cars built in 1971 - drive them on 2 wheels, and they'll flip mid stunt .
