Can't wait for my 50th Birthday!
« on: August 13, 2013, 09:42:00 PM »
So I placed a wanted- to- buy 1964 Bear Kodiak ad in the classifieds. Next year I will be 50 and I wanted to hunt with a bow made by Bear the year I was born. I found one almost immediately. Trad folks are the best! Myself and some other Green Mountain Traditional Bowhunter members will be hunting with Bears made in the year we were born in 2014.  This may be a fun excercise here on tradgang as well. I'll start another post and we can all keep up with our 2014 bear bow hunts..What do u think?

I was 50 yesterday, no, that was 15 years ans lots of arrows ago.  Enjoy that bow and the special moment when you tag a deer with it

When you visit the doc for your exam. I found that the old joke " Do I get a hug " does not go over well.
You either do or you don't, there is no try

I just crossed the half century mark myself back in May,  really looking forward to hunting with my 63 Dogleg Kodiak in about a month!
Not so much looking forward to the upcoming colonoscopy...
Although this topic has given me the idea to make this  terrible, horrible experience easier  on me by picking up another Kodiak... Think my  wife will go for it   :)
