I think it's kinda cool that a picture of those three guys (Doc, John and Grant) hunting together would look very similar to the 1941???? image you have posted.

John - 1938 is the correct year... Good job. The bows were the key.

Sorry, Gordon Campbell is not the mystery bowman in the middle.

Trap - Your last guess of 1941 is not correct... but is your best of 5 guesses being only 3 years over.

Steve - Sorry to report that the mystery bowman in the middle is not Charlie Kroll. Charlie was such a cool old guy. I always enjoyed talking with him.

Trap - Tom Jennings ??? You made me laugh out loud again. You are tooooo funny.

The only guess that comes to mind that would have made me laugh more would have been Tiny Munson (perhaps the largest bodied bowman of the era).

Think Michigan 1938...

That's me in the center. Fred and Nels handed me this old clunker bow and said I wouldn't need a jacket. The picture is not in the back woods...it's in the back yard behind the cabin. Bill Hinkley was the photographer and he stayed on the back porch out of the wind.

I havent made this many bad guesses since my last Calculus exam.  Sadly, it wasnt multiple choice either.    :confused:

That's funny Cody.  I have Dr. Arnold Otto Haugen written down on a pad of paper beside me.  That was my next "guess".

Who killed the first deer with archery tackle in Michigan?  I have a feeling that's who we are looking for but I havent been able to find who that person is.

Wow ! I leave the computer for two hours and you guys have guessed half the names associtaed with old time archery... Some of these guesses don't look much like the mystery bowman...

Sorry to report that all of the guesses are incorrect.

I'll try to find another image of our mystery bowmen and post it... which may help someone...
