About that snowy picture...

I never realized how hard it was snowing while we were out there.  Sure it was cold, wet, and visibility was crap when the wind got at yer face... but it sure didn't seem as "bad" as the pic proves it really was! Maybe it just didn't matter and I couldn't have cared less if I got snowed in.  

This is a picture that I will print out and frame because it's more than just a pic to me... and for those in attendance... It tells one heck of a story, doesn't it?

That picture will be telling that story for a long, long time!  Those two boys in the front row are what is going to keep the Trad Archery going years from now.  I never met two more eager kids about bow shooting or hunting in all my life. They were great to be around.  I think they rubbed off on each of us as we all were acting alot younger than our years.  Folks if you ever get the chance to go and meet up with people from this thread, do it without reservation.  Just do it!  You won't regret it.

The photos are great.
As I tell my sons, the joy is in the hunt and the companionship and not in the harvest. I am glad to see you are getting your boys involved. My 6 year old grandson is just beginning to shoot his bow. I look forward to spending time in the woods with him.

The image belies the feelings of the moment.  We look kind of bedraggled, but looks are deceiving.  We were having a blast stump shooting in that snow.  This shoot is about fellowship, camaraderie, bows and arrows and passing on the tradition.   John and Jarred will be in photos like this for a long time, I'm sure of that, because they have dads who give a darn about them.  Dale and Darren..."you done good!"

I personally want to say it is extremely rewarding to spend a day in the snowy woods with the likes of these characters.  God bless them one and all.  BTW...Dave Lohr, Ryan Robertson and Joe Sivits were there Friday, but couldn't attend Saturday.   George

Bernie,

You been too long a s'uthiner to ever cuff that stuff theseadays...got nuttin to do with yer age!   :D  

George,
You said a mouthful.  When Darren said to Ranger, "This is a lesson..when one of your friends is in trouble (speaking of a truck what wouldn't start in 8 degree weather) you give up your own plans to help that friend" I knew that John boy, would grow up to be a responsible chap.

It was indeed good to be among them younguns.  It's that "older" young un that didn't even leave me ONE of my cookies when I finally got milk, that was the whizzer in the bunch... What was that bald young guy's name again?   :bigsmyl:  

Thanks for puttin that whole shindig together, George... Glad you could come hang for breakfast!

Ah-ha!   :bigsmyl:  Truth is just a matter of time, huh?

LMAO... I'm sure I'd never have enjoyed the cookies as much as the shennaingans that followed since then!   :rolleyes:    :p

Nah...Phil. I brought a stash of my favorite Giant brand cookies..taste like the old Hydrox and not as sweet as Oreo.

Well, the pups in camp went and drank my milk...their dad's fetched up some replacement after their Sat. PM "Stump-hunt"... and I was lookin toward a big ole cold glass of milk and some of my "hydrox" wannabies...but alas..now that I had milk, some miscreant went and ate all my cookies!

Blamed the kids, too!     :bigsmyl:    Turns out to be my new "best bald-headed young buddy." (now there's a mouthful!)  ;)  

them cookies what Eric brought...oh, man...they were to die for...

Dunno...never had Ms. Susan's...but she'd have a run for her money with Eric's wife's cookies!

Maybe she'd make up a few doz and auction them off at St. Judes auction on tradgang, huh?  Hey George...get after Eric, willya?     :D

I swear it wasn't me.  No kidding!  When we went to bed... there were at least 5 or 6 cookies left... sitting on their original bag.  

When Doc woke up.... even the plastic bag was missing!  But I swear it wasn't me.  :)  

Nut Butter... I love that stuff... for a whole bunch of reasons!!     :saywhat:
