Brent at Black Mtn Bows. . .Let's cheer him up
« on: December 11, 2007, 06:51:00 PM »
Well some of you know that Brent is a friend of ours so I guess I can get away with this.

You see ol' Brent had a run in with gravity and ice yesterday and busted his elbow.  So he is pretty laid up for a month or so.

I think now would be a great time to invite him to join you on a late season hunt.  (being that he can't go because of the arm)  But just think, he could be invited to hunt a bunch of critters and never get to leave Montana.  LOL

He already had to cancel attending our Javie hunt with Mickey and family.

So let the invites come and lets see if we can cheer him up.

Brent,

Come on down to MO, we can hunt around my house or I will take you on a canoe trip down the Eleven Point into the Irish Wilderness. Oh yeah and could you bring me a Sheepeater Spirit down to try out? 59#@28" Osage and whatever you think would look good! Can't wait to see ya!

Hope you get better soon and the invitation is a floating one. Turkey season is right around the corner so come on down.

According to his misses he is out like a light. His boys offered to send him a wheelchair for Christmas but learned that wasn't a good idea.    :goldtooth:

He canceled his hunt in Texas? Didn't know anything about it.   :confused:    Howz about we simply transfer his deposit to dates that will work for him later in the year? Summer months are much better hunting for hogs anyway.   :D    Come down anytime Brent! Just bring some shoes that have some traction. Can't stand the thought of you wallerin around on the ground.  :bigsmyl:   CK

Well guys, I wish I could have come up with a better story, a griz attack, fighting off saber-toothed gophers, taking on six big guys outside a bar to defend my bride's honor.........I busted my butt! And a few other parts. What did I learn? 1) I don't bounce as well as I used to, 2) it don't matter how soft the snow is, the ice and concrete under it is what you actually feel, 3) you get a lot of hunting invitations at the wrong time, 4) I got a lot of good friends.

Thanks for the kind words. My wife trying to be positive says, "At least it is your right arm so you can still function being left handed and all." I look at her and say, "Dude, that is my bow arm!" Married for 24 years and she still don't understand. So, I am looking at this as an opportunity to talk to the doc about getting my right arm set in a locked-in position so the elbow won't move. I can see this increasing my group accuracy in a huge way.  

Curtis, I would really appreciate another opportunity to come down. Mighty nice of you.

Pete, the straw melts when fresh brewed joe gets sucked up in it leaving a bit of a burn on the upper lip.........yeah I already tried.

Traxx, might need to come to the high desert to heal up with my "ol" buddies out there.

Shawn, I would like to come flush bunnies for ya'll, but the doc says I aint supposed to walk on my right arm for a while.

V'ster, Mom said you called while I was in the middle of getting measured for a wheelchair.

Walt, if you call me and invite me to go with you and Lenny on a cat hunt right now, come spring, I swear I will hunt you down and blunt you in the back of the head. Then I will go spend the rest of the season with JBiorn.

Wingnut, I have a lot of time to sit here and think............I'm coming after you next!   :D  

Thanks again guys for the good words. 'Preciate the kind words. Pretty funny stuff but it hurts when I     :biglaugh:

Bummer, bummer, bummer!

This sounds very... inconvenient(?!?!), Brent.  So sorry to hear the news, and I'm praying that you'll make it through this one day at a time.

Since it loooks like you may be sitting around for a day or two... I'm sending you a book.  It is "Finding Wounded Deer" by Trout, and I hope hope it will help redeeem a few of the minutes you have to spend.

Best wishes, Buddy!

Well, I remember when I was talking to Brent about ordering a bow...telling him I didn't want a real heavy draw, cause I wasn't more than 150lbs soakin' wet...he gave me that chuckle of his and told me he didn't have that problem...and I could always fill my pockets with rocks....now I'm thinkin' if he was closer to my weight he might of bounced back..lol

seriously, hope you have a full recovery, and if you want to do some squirrel huntin' the doors always open.
