'The Sharpshooter' episode #1—Notice the sign on the left—this sign is the sign that Vernon shows his shooting skills on.  In this episode Vernon looks over his right shoulder, our left, and then shoots 5 shots into the sign. (See the sign to the right)  Notice the trunk and the size of this tree.
 Notice no tree standing in front of the house.

'The Sharpshooter' episode #1—Notice the location of the tree, the picture on the left, the tree stands in front of the house.  Notice the picture on the right, the sign is on a totally different tree from the one that Vernon shot 5 holes into—the for sale sign on the right has no bullet holes in it—also the signs read differently. 
(The sign above says 4 mi. south—see Judge Hanavan—how far did you say it was from North Fork to the McCain Ranch?  I guess it depends on who's giving the directions)  ; )

'The Sharpshooter' episode #1—Notice the picture on the left—this is suppose to be the Dunlap Ranch—that's what they lead you to think when Big Jim & his men meet Vernon & his uncle there.  When Lucas & Mark arrive at their 'The Sharpshooter' episode #1—''Home Ranch' episode #2—the house on the right is what the Dunlap Ranch looks like with a lot more buildings to the ranch.

I read on the web that the name of Sam Peckinpah's family ranch was The Dunlap Ranch
