new bow, dirty turkey and a dog day afternoon!!
« on: June 14, 2009, 11:08:00 AM »
first let me say THANK YOU to Mike (Mcgroundhunter) for his effort in a deal that sent a Shrew my way!!!! also a big thank you to Jamie for arrows and his part to help me get this bow, as well as to Chris for picking it up! all three guys went above and beyond to help me get this bow! i am WAAAAAAAY more then happy with this bow, an absolute beauty that smokes an arrow and shoots smoother then i would have thought a short bow could. not to many bows i can pick up and shoot but i shoot this one pretty good!
 
 
Now right after the close of turkey season a certain gobbler moved in to the field behind my house and scolds me EVERY day!!! par for the course today, every time and arrow smacked the target the ole dirty bird ran his mouth!!!
 
Yeah i know, i need a new target, in fact this was the last day for this old girl.
 
Here is Chris with my little girl.
 
Dogs staying cool as only dogs do!
 
Again THANK YOU Mike, Jamie and Chris!!!!

Looks like you had a good time my friend. That ole deer target looks like she needs to be put out too pasture. If you have to put her back together after every shot, going to the gym would be a waste of time. That is a work out in its self!   :biglaugh:    :biglaugh:

Shooting that beast of a Shrew will get some of those ###'s off......it must be nice to be young, But if your haveing fun that all that matters. It was fun shooting today, we'll get out stumping soon...
