Izzy and I shared Silvertip Passion, he was so excited that he was getting the new Schafer...

WHY?? WHY??   I am heartbroken as I type this..he was a true Gentleman.. we had talked about an Adirondack Hunt together...We never made it..

I will loft a cedar arrow in your memory, this weekend Izzy..I will await the ravens' call...RIP

My condolences to his family. If I am understanding this right he was killed with several family members? That's just terrible. Let me know what we will be doing terry and I'll step up I'm sure many other members will too.

the real earthbound tragedy is the surviving son - what a heavy burden for a teenager to be dealt, and to live with for the rest of his life.  

while the tragedy and its roots are unimaginably senseless, the boy is the one to rally around and support.  in doing so, this will honor izzy and family.

I have no words to discribe that I'm feeling right now. I spoke to him on Monday.  Please, pray for the family. And remember the brother bowhunter that he was to us all.
