A Walk in the Woods with Hope...
« on: October 09, 2007, 11:19:00 AM »
Here are some pics of yesterday and today with Hope.  Hope you enjoy these as much as I did taking them.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 The Bushytail was taken with an Arrow Dynamics Trad and a Muzzy Phantom 200 grain head. Wish I make all my shots on deer that well. LOL

Thanks Guys
Adam, Did'nt notice a Bruise. LOL  See what happens when you use a broadhead  :readit:    :D  

Joe and Bob, It was fun. Never too much though.

Thanks Killy If you make it to the Rough Mountain Hunt you can try Hope out yourself.
