A Silly Self Indulgence
« on: October 11, 2020, 04:29:36 PM »
Today is my 71st birthday, and I have been trying to think of a fun present for myself. My archery stuff is in good shape, so I couldn't think of anything I really need. Then I remembered I have always liked the old pictures from yesteryear of guys in the classic African safari jacket. Pretty soon, I'll look just like these dudes - think Howard Hill on the African plain. Now if I could just shoot like him...

I can afford to shoot most any bow I like.  And I like Primal Tech bows.

Congratulations, Sam.  I just had my 77th last Tuesday.  Seems unreal when I say that!  :biglaugh:
