back to shootin'!
« on: December 16, 2010, 10:44:00 PM »
Well I am glad to be back. I have been out for a while due to almost cutting my thumb in half   :wavey:  
As I read through the posts I get touched by the way the trad community has the commoradery of old and I thank you for all your posts and comments to learn from.  :notworthy:

I'm glad you're back to being able to shoot.

I know it's a salve for my troubles when I can watch arrows fly.

Welcome home!

God bless,Mudd

Great to hear! Been fighting a bum shoulder for 2+ years. Starting again with lightweights and trying to get my confidence back. In the meantime, just enjoying the flight of the arrow.

Welcome back.  I am already feeling bad about not shooting due to lack of time when the sun is still up and the cold temps.  Been almost a week. Must be why the "What have you shot in your house" thread had so many responses.    :biglaugh:
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

Welcome back, glad you're all healed-up!
Maineac I'm with you. I haven't shot for almost two weeks. I was just getting used to shooting by flashlight when I had motorcycle work to deal with after work, and now it's just so cold and dark. I hate winter.
