Good for Larry!
He never really struck me as the kind of person with enough money to buy something like that though. I watched an episode last night after I read this thread. I kind of agreed with you JCB. He was in south texas last night and was wearing a plain ol pair of leather gloves...BUT they were colored cammo with a green and black sharpie. It was the funniest dang thing. I thought to myself, "And this is the guy that just shelled out how many million dollars?" I work with some people that look like it'd be a stretch for them to buy a grand slam at denny's, who own 10's of millions of dollars worth of properties. these are the same guys who buy generic soda, drive used trucks and take their lunch to work. one of my clients dosen't even own a mule or a ranger to get around his property but he owns over 5000k acres in several tracts. how many guys who lease 300 acres have a 8k side x side to pull behind their truck? I know other guys who look/act like they just signed a contract with the cowboys have to borrow money from mom and dad each month to afford the payment on their new crew cab diesel. they are there every year, with a brand new bow, scope or 4 wheeler. so tell me, what does wealthy look like? well said.... had a guy tell me one time at work, "i dont need a million dollars, i just want people to think ive got it" another guy chimed in and said "i want the million, just dont want anyone to know it." makes perfect sense... one is in debt up to the top of his balding head, and the other is probably knocking on a million and you would never know
Everyone should have something to believe in, I believe I will go hunting

Whoa buddy, you took my post WAY out of context. I had no intention of coming across like I thought the guy was broke. I just though it was kind of funny with those gloves. In absolutly no way was I giving the impression that "wealthy" looks a certain way, you just took it wrong.

Ok, Im confused. I thought David Morris owned El Cazador and Schwartz was partnered with Morris on the original Tecomate ranch? I saw Schwartz on a hunting show this morning. I figured with all his troubles his face would not be on TV this year. I know they shot this stuff last year but I still figured it would get pulled and replaced. What a Jackarse. What did Schwartz do? Guess I've been living under a rock... Don't care for any one of the three goofballs.

Larry is a TOOL. Can't shoot and makes nothing but common sense redundant statements. Why would anybody look up to him

so tell me, what does wealthy look like?
I aint knockin the guy at all. I have met Larry a few times and spoke with him at some of the hunting events he attends and he just doesnt give me the impression that he is loaded with $$$$$$. I think Larry is a great guy and if he really did buy the ranch I think its great! He just seems like a down to earth good family man that doesnt care if he has a single dollar in the bank as long as he can keep doing what he does and his family is happy. Being a celebrity in the hunting world I never thought for one minute the guy was broke. But $8mill+ is a big purchase for just about anyone. I aint sayin you can spot a rich guy just by lookin at him, but alot of them do give you that felling that they think they are better than you and you are not worthy of thier time. I have never gotten that impression from Larry. He just seems like an average joe that has been lucky enough to make a living for himself doing what he loves.

If I had the money ($8mil+), and didn't have to worry about the drug lords from Laredo coming to pay me a visit at the ranch headquarters.....I would buy that place in a heartbeat!! It's probably one of the best managed deer ranches in the U.S.

Come on guys don't bust on our fellow Texan, the man seems decent. He probably can't see through his scope, the guy has coke bottle glasses. I like watching him do rattling and enjoy his TV shows. I think the pistol must be more challenging to hold still and it would definitely be easier to carry.

The odds that Larry bought this ranch by himself are slim and none and Slim left town. Larry's an okay guy. Just take everything he says and does with a large grain of salt. He's a professional BS artist.

Yes when I was a kid I remember my step dad pointing out an old guy driving a beat up chevy car that he said was a multi millionaire many times over. This was in the mid 60's when a million dollars was still serious money.So you really never know what a guy might have if he doesn't brag.

Don't think the guy is rolling pennies for gas money

When I was in school in Kingsville, you'd see Robert Kleberg show up in town and he was often dirty and driving and old ratty vehicle. Looked like you needed to give him a handout if you didn't know better. Just goes to show you really can't judge a book by the cover.
