James Foster/Bob Lee Archery.

[Webster2]

In 1993, I was bow hunting on a National Forest in mid Texas.

I met up with a character and we hit if off pretty well.

He knew a whole lot more about Traditional Shooting amd I spent a very enjoyable couple of hours at his camp, while he coached mt in some of the finer points of traditional shooting.

Have thought of him often, but had forgatten his name.

This afternoon, I came across an old envelope (Bob Lee Archery) that he wrote his name on for me.

James Foster, Bob Lee archery.

Anyone know him or if he is still alive?

Would really like to contact him after 19 years.

I haven't heard of the name before. I'm just under 3 hr's from the Bob Lee factory and have gotten to know JJ and Rob Lee fairly well. I would say call them and ask about him. (903)586-1877 it's sad I know the factory number by heart now, lol.

Thanks,

I found another thread on here where the poster knew him.

In that time frame, he shot competative for Bob Lee.

I believe he was Texas open bow champion in /around 1991/1992.

Thanks again,

I remember that thread well Chris - just went back through and read it again!  That was a cool trip  

[Caughtandhobble]

Mr Foster sounds like a fellow that I would like;)

Ya James is a down right good fella, excellent bow shot, and hilarious to spend time with.

He now runs stretch a string outfitters like Chris said.

James is a top notch gentleman with a wealth of knowledge.  A real pleasure to spend time with.

Chris,

I went to his site and saw the photos of you and Tom Porter.
I just might have to forego moose hunting this fall and head on down there.  LOL

This was Kalamazoo 2012, is this the guy?

Nope, that's Lenny Rock, John Rook's buddy - but a character, non the less.

James is a great friend!

Chris and I luv the little cuss and we always start to miss him as soon as we climb in the truck to head back home after we hunt with him. I can’t wait to see the old fart again!

 

He's changed a little from the last time you saw him. He recently got some new teeth that he can't seem to keep in his mouth.
