Grant Young?????
« on: January 10, 2012, 11:57:00 AM »
I'm wondering about Grant Young.....maybe I've missed something along the way since I've been out the loop for awhile myself.

I've PM'ed and emailed him with no replies.

I pray that this post doesn't lend itself to bad news.

Hey Felix,

Grant and I exchanged emails regularly for several years, but I haven't heard from him in over a year now......I'm worried guys.

:confused:  

A search showed his last post on here was January, 2011...one year ago.

His last post on *********** was April, 2011.

Yes, hope all is well with him and family.

Hey guys,

You had me worried about Grant so I gave him a call just now to check on him.

He is alive and kicking and says he'll get on here soon and say hello!

I won't speak for him, but I know, as much as we hate when it happens, that sometimes life gets in the way of archery. Yup, it's hard to believe until it happens, LOL.

By the way, he was really touched that we give a darn:)

Thanks for causing me to get in touch with an old friend again! We had a good chat and I can always learn from Grant's wisdom.

Cheers,

Bernie

That is great news Bernie. Thanks for giving him a call.

Grant was always so good at staying in touch. It really had me worried that he hadn't replied to emails or pm's, or posted on any of the forums.

I hope he gets active again on here. Grant is a warehouse of information, and a purdy good guy to boot.....you kinda start missing those folks when they're away from the computer.

Sometimes we all need a little break, but it's nice to know that someone cares.  I'm sure we'll hear from GY.

You mean like this one?  This was Grant's T/D outside his tent one fine Texas morning a couple of years ago...

It will be good to hear from Grant again for sure! I have taken a break from the "boards" myself lately, but I do miss seeing Grant's posts when I do check in.
