Change of plans--for Bowdoc-- Arrow sent
« on: September 10, 2017, 10:21:00 AM »
I was all set with my bow choice for this season, but now things have changed. While at Bear Quest #9 Don Ward talked me into the virtues of a Bear Take Down. With his passing I feel I should honor him by using a Bear T/D this season. I will carry a "B" riser with #2 limbs @ 46# with a Delta quiver. One cedar arrow will be set free in a remote place to honor him...........

That's a nice, thoughtful touch... It will mean more if or when you shoot something with that bow.

Spent the morning in the Adirondacks with my Bear take down. On the way out I sent an arrow in honor of BowDoc into the Siamese Ponds Wilderness Area. May he rest in peace..........   :pray:
