Cause I got a BIGHEAD
I have been called Bighead most of my life

Nothing to do with cattle, I started collecting 18 pattern Case Stockman.

I figured it was best to use my real name, ebay, here, email.
Got no secrets so what the heck!

Mine is for a knife game my grandpa taught me when I was a youngster.

At one time I owned over 400 Case Classics, hence the "ccbill"...

One of my all time favorite fictional hero's in author Vince Flynn's Novels!

Mine came from something I did (when I was way younger) that involved a deer hunt, a bow, and only 1 arrow. My other arrows got broken from being shut up in a truck door. Still went on the hunt. Hit a nice big buck but a bad shot up too high and toward the back on it. After all the tracking, running, slobbering, and cussing I did, I caught up with him and that buck and I squared off. He had 9 points with big loooonnngg handles on his knives and I only had 1 on the folding hunter knife I was carrying. I finally won after about a 45 minute fight but I still believe to this day that he died from laughing at me. Then once when I was much older I took a tree limb and was swatting trout in a river. They weren't hungry and wouldn't bite, and I was. Caught a couple like that but trout don't really care much for that kind of bait I was using. After those episodes everyone started calling me by my user name because that Jerry Reed song had just came out about that time. Hard to lose a nick name.
